I really doubt we are JUST going to sign players outright. We have a lot of flexibility regarding trades due to our cap space and the ASSet of Curry's expiring contract, not to mention other players. We also have Lee as an asset, though I want him to stay.

I think we might be in for a shock this summer after we sign that first guy. And if that first guy is Bron, then we might even move Chandler... If we don't sign that first guy, there is always baseball.

I have a feeling we will look into this this summer. Also, the bonus with Curry is that he might not play and insurance will foot the bill.

If we sign 'Bron, we SHOULD trade Chandler for pieces we need (e.g., Rubio's rights).

How would this work?

curry + gallo/chandler for bosh + hedo

curry cancels out hedo's deal and the knicks are under the cap to send back an exception for bosh.

but personally, if bosh leaves toronto, i don't see him in ny.

No F'in way.

Gallo and Chandler for Bosh alone = NO F'IN WAY. And you want us to take Hedo and his bum lazy drunk high ass with it?

LMFAO. You're right. You have gone pure Raptor fan/troll on us these days!

In Toronto Dreamland that's where. Then we're stuck with a drunk drug addicted loser for four more years in Hedo who got his contract and hasn't given a crap about his job since.

But how would it work? It can't if we get two max players this summer. If we got 1 max player we could use curry to S&T for Bosh/Hedo and absorb the extra 17M in salary that comes with that deal in our second max slot.

Why would we do that? We would if we got LBJ, Bosh, Hedo as the third sidekick and pray he starts giving a crap again.

I still say we try to get 1max (or near max) and retain Lee this season and go after that third big name the following summer.

where's the drunk drug addicted info coming from?

Dude's been spotted in bars nightly and he always has this tired lazy mess of a look about him. Add in his recent horrible, purposefully horrible, play, and his comments "Oh well season's over in 10 games anyway." <----team actually still in the playoff hunt! --- and it doesn't take much to realize this guy is MESSED UP.

Eddy Curry
Wilson Chandler

Emeka Okafor (3 years at 34 remaining)
Darren Collison

Let's say we get Lee to take 10 million a year. That leaves 7 million to spend. How much money could Ginobli make in NY from say Nike and a couple of additional sponsors. I think $3 million is very realistic a year considering his international ties and new york diversity. So let's say we give him a 3 year deal at $21 million? The Spurs are not contenders anymore and can't really do anything via trade thanks to the Jefferson deal.

Collison-Douglas
Manu
James
Gallo
Lee-Okafur

Would we be able to pull something like that off?

You know them Turks just love them Poppy seed bagels! Cant get enough!

keeping CP3 would have to sacrifice.

You deal with NO from a position of stregth. And Gallo ain't going nowhere.

Peja's contract is whats killing them!
