New York Knicks

Incoming Players
Travis Diener
Salary: $1,620,000 Years Remaining: 1

Jeff Foster
Salary: $5,500,000 Years Remaining: 1

Jamaal Tinsley
Salary: $6,750,000 Years Remaining: 3


Outgoing Players: Jared Jeffries, Malik RoseIndiana Pacers

Incoming Players
Jared Jeffries
Salary: $6,049,400 Years Remaining: 3

Malik Rose
Salary: $7,647,500 Years Remaining: 1


Outgoing Players: Travis Diener, Jeff Foster, Jamaal Tinsley

1. we can cut Diener, that's just a salary fill
2. Bird gets character for talent with the JJ-Lips for Tinsley deal, the Foster for Rose swap is the premium I think Bird will pay for the character overhaul
3. and if he wants to take Mardy for Shawne Williams for his trouble, we can live with that too

I like the deal and I like Tinsley and all we give up is Jeffries and Rose ending contract.
In the Knick of time. Knickal for Your thoughts.

The Knicks are satisfied with Duhon. There is no reason for that deal to go down now. Plus I don't see the Pacers and Knicks making deals anytime soon.

Walsh has said he's looking for another PG in addition to Duhon.

I don't think any Bird vs. Walsh relationship things will stand in the way of the two teams striking a deal.

I'd rather see us get a young, inexperienced point guard - maybe rookie or 1 year player- who could develop over the next 2 years and be our future. Duhon is our starting point guard but probably not our future. We don't need Tinsley.

Was this deal actually rumored or is it a trade checker/speculation deal?

I think Tinsley, while being an ass & being injury prone, is very good & would make for a potentially very good PG duo w/ Duhon. We really have no other viable PG. I consider Mardy far from a viable NBA PG.

Plus, when you're giving up NOTHING, which is what JJ-skinny provides (he's very versatile in that he sucks at many things), why not make this deal?

Just a trade checker/speculation deal on my part.

Tinsley is not a good option. He gets injured too much and he is getting older. I did not know Walsh said he is still looking for a pg. Do you have a link? If Walsh is still looking for a point guard this is bad news for Mardy and Marbury. I still don't understand why the Knicks would still be looking for another point guard when they already have many spare parts. If that's the case then the Knicks need to get rid or their spare parts and then get a whole new car (A real point guard). No more substitute.

Marbury, we know, will never don the Knick uni again. Collins is the least athletic, poorest shooting PG in the league.

I'm not a fan of either of those players but I would hope the Knicks would clear them away before making a trade to get a new point guard.

Marbury = buy out
Collins = tell him to go be an assistant at Temple or something, he's blatantly not an NBA talent

If we trade Lee, having Jeff Foster would be nice so this deal makes some sense but I think the Pacers are looking to trade Tinsley and not take back a 3 year contract. I don't think they make this trade.

I think Bird has really devalued Tinsley in terms of what he'd get on the trade mkt. He's breaking every rule of salesmanship.

i think Walsh is pretty much finished shopping for G's.
After 7 years & 40K+ posts, banned by martin for calling Nalod a 'moron'. Awesome.
