How can new players(Norris) get traded before trading deadline if the trading deadline is feb 19th? Don't teams have a 2 month waiting period?

JAMES DOLAN on Isiah : He's a good friend of mine and of the organization and I will continue to solicit his views. He will always have strong ties to me and the team.

Well salaries would have to match then if it's a one for one trade, If Moochie is getting paid decent we could possibly pick up a decent big man like Melvin Ely for him?

Teams cannot trade players for two months after receiving the player in trade, if the player is being traded in combination with other players. However, the team is free to trade the player by himself (not packaged with other players) immediately. This two-month restriction applies only to teams over the salary cap.

If I recall correctly, players can be traded within that 60-day period if they are packaged with another player being traded under a different exception.

Complicated? Rare? Yes, but it's possible.

Another season, and more adversity to persevere through. We will get the job done, even BETTER than last year. GO KNICKS!

I dont see Isaiah trading norris. He's been pretty solid as far as a back up goes. Anyway I would love to see frank play more than him.

Either way, if IT does trade him, that 60 day wait will probably be over anyway. I cant wait to see any offseason move IT might make.
