Gallo, they weren't as high on him, he's not having as good a year as he had last year (duh, no STAT last year) but he's good and hes young. He will need to be resigned soon too, tho. They like him somewhat, but blah, blah, blah.

Curry + AR/pick/s are the obvious parts of any deal.

He's good and playing like one of the top 35 players in the league (don't know where they got that from, I like him but don't agree) but they don't wanna trade for someone who will immediately be a RFA and they'll have to compete with teams to keep him.

Fields' talent to salary ratio is crazy, he's making like 700k and is starting and making an impact on a winning team. He still has upside and has the most value.

I question the source of this. Chandler was never on the table according to Walsh, so why would they comment on him or even consider him for that matter.

this is correct. Donnie has been asking DEN what they want and got nada reply.

I can sign up for this. This is best case scenario. Then you can trade one of them for a center and backup PG. Teams are probably more interested in Chandler at this point.

People are down on our assests but we really have so many. Galo, Chandler, Fields, AR, Azabuike and his insured contract that comes off the books, Curry's expiring....that's a ton to work with whether it's just Knicks/Denver or a 3 way or 4 way deal.

It's not Harris and Favors, but that ship has (hopefully) sailed.

not for me. I am more comfortable giving up one of those guys and keeping Fields; that's how high I am on him.

Especially if you have 2 guys like Amare and Melo who NEED the ball, Fields just compliments them so well and actually plays a position that Melo doesn't cover.

Couldn't agree with you more bro. Hey, one thing we agree on anyway.

Can't lock them up until we get STAT some help. The Knicks can always go over the cap to resign their own players.

depends on the new CBA... if there's a hard cap then all salary exceptions will be done away with.

i agree it's gonna be a huge sticking point of contention but the owners are really pushing for it.
