Lots of protections there (because that's what good GM's do). The Knicks need picks they can use this year or next.
If it didn’t work in Phoenix with Nash and Stoutamire... it’s just not a winning formula. It’s an entertaining formula, but not a winning one. - Derek Harper talking about D'Antoni's System

Curry to Minnesota for the rest of the money owed to Juwan Howard (is he even in the league anymore??) and either Craig Smith or Mark Madsen PLUS the Philly 1st rounder.

Great find fish. They potentially have 5 picks this coming draft. Looking at their roster, they really don't need a center or a PF. The only way we can pawn off Curry is if we give them Nate instead of DLee.

Would you do a Curr, Nate for Cardinal, Jason Collins and 1st rd pick from MIA?

OR

Maybe trade DLee for Carney and the 1st RD pick from MIA.

Curry wouldn't fit well with Jefferson & Love.

They really need help at the guard positions. The only way we could probably interest them would be to work out a 3 team trade moving Curry for a solid Guard and moving that guard for a pick and filler.

Would like to get one of those, but who would they want?

Is it just me but I only see Minnesota as having 2 1st round picks based on the data provided above.

3 1st round picks less the (1) owed to the Clippers. The other picks noted appear to be 2nd round picks.

Hit him up Walsh! This is MC-Fail we're talking about. A couple of conversations and we can wind up with Al Jefferson, The Celtics championship rings, his house, and the numbers of Larry Birds' ex-groupie daughters --- all for Shandon Anderson!

they have Bos, Mia and LAC... depending on where those teams finish its possible all 3 are due this year. They will likely have 3 this year and an extra one next year
