Successful Trade Scenario
Congratulations on a successful trade.
Due to New York and Charlotte being over the cap, the 25% trade rule is invoked. New York and Charlotte had to be no more than 125% plus $100,000 of the salary given out for the trade to be accepted, which did happen here. This trade satisfies the provisions of the Collective Bargaining Agreement.
New York Trade Breakdown
Change in Team Outlook: -14.0 ppg, -3.5 rpg, and -2.9 apg.
Incoming Players
Raja Bell
6-5 SG from Florida International
9.6 ppg, 2.9 rpg, 1.3 apg in 32.4 minutes
Boris Diaw
6-8 SF / PF from France (Foreign)
8.3 ppg, 3.8 rpg, 2.1 apg in 24.4 minutes
Outgoing Players
Nate Robinson
5-9 PG from Washington
15.0 ppg, 3.9 rpg, 3.5 apg in 28.2 minutes
Anthony Roberson
6-2 SG / PG from Florida
4.5 ppg, 0.7 rpg, 0.8 apg in 10.9 minutes
Al Harrington
6-9 PF / SF from St. Patrick's (HS)
12.4 ppg, 5.6 rpg, 2.0 apg in 33.3 minutes
And there goes a significant chunk of cap space in 2010.
Diaw and Bell will cost the Knicks more or less what it would cost to re-sign Lee and Nate. Also, adding Bell and Diaw is an upgrade on defense and clutch play down the stretch AND we might even be able to do harrington for Diaw and Bell using our exceptions (someone please verify if we can do cash from the Balkman($1,369,920)/Collins(1,034,760) exception or use the Mobley exception)
