Definitely not dumb. I think it's just too much value coming and not enough going and we'd be taking on too much contract next year with Ellis. I'm down on Ellis right now anyway - good talent but overpayed & he appears to be a knucklehead...

Acie Law's intriguing for the Knicks though. Not sure how high up on Nellie's depth chart he really is out there. I looked into him myself a couple of weeks ago but held off on a post because I didn't really see a trade match I liked for both clubs. Gotta look at that again. At 6'3" I think this guy's a solid young PG talent who has a chance to be really effective in the right scenario. This guy was a good player in college..

That's a lot of PGs coming our way. I am really very intrigued with Toney Douglas. I want to see what he can do in the first part of the season.

I like TD too. He's growing on me. Didn't know enough about him to really comment on him at first so I had to let it unfold a little..Last night was the best he's looked in a Knick uniform so far. He handled the extra responsibility of closing out that game last night very well. He wasn't really thinking too much in that 4th quarter, just playing hard & reacting. Gotta start thinking about next year and beyond though. We're gonna need someone else in addition to Douglas moving forward..

Duhon better be careful and not miss games/get hurt, because I could easily see TD earning the starting spot during the course of the year. Duhon might still start, but I can see him not finishing games.

Ellis: Huge contract. Huge ego. Huge headcase. Stupid off the court. Hell f'in no.

And he's not a real PG btw.
