IT has said in the papers that the draft was not the way he wanted to improve the team. IMHO, players like M Daniels, G Wallace, J Richardson (who seems available with the emergence of Peitrus) would be my first choice. Daniels and Wallace aren't the most accurate shooters and Richardson slacks on D.

Daniels could be packaged in a sign and trade with walker for KT, Anderson, but that probably won't happen (even though it would help Dallas on D).

G Wallace for F Williams works straight up, but giving up Frank this early ...

Richardson could possibly come in this elaborate and unrealistic:

real gm trade # 1590758

Golden State trades: SG Jason Richardson (18.7 ppg, 6.7 rpg, 2.9 apg in 37.6 minutes)
C Erick Dampier (12.3 ppg, 12.0 rpg, 0.8 apg in 32.5 minutes)
Golden State receives: PF Mike Sweetney (4.3 ppg, 3.7 rpg, 0.3 apg in 11.8 minutes)
PF Othella Harrington (4.6 ppg, 3.2 rpg, 0.5 apg in 15.6 minutes)
C Nazr Mohammed (7.4 ppg, 5.9 rpg, 0.5 apg in 20.1 minutes)
Change in team outlook: -14.7 ppg, -5.9 rpg, and -2.4 apg.

New York trades: PF Mike Sweetney (4.3 ppg, 3.7 rpg, 0.3 apg in 11.8 minutes)
PF Othella Harrington (4.6 ppg, 3.2 rpg, 0.5 apg in 15.6 minutes)
C Nazr Mohammed (7.4 ppg, 5.9 rpg, 0.5 apg in 20.1 minutes)
New York receives: SG Jason Richardson (18.7 ppg, 6.7 rpg, 2.9 apg in 78 games)
C Erick Dampier (12.3 ppg, 12.0 rpg, 0.8 apg in 74 games)
Change in team outlook: +14.7 ppg, +5.9 rpg, and +2.4 apg.

Why GS would do it:
Richardson is a tradable asset not that Pietrus (the french Artest) is starting to develope. Dampier will opt out, and does not want to return. Mohammed will give them the center they need to replace him, Sweetney will compensate for the loss of rebounds, and Harrington is an expiring contract.

Why NY would do it:
Dampier is much stronger, athletic, and more dominant than Mohammed. J Richardson would alleviate the scoring load, by spreading the floor (great 3 points shooter) and able to run on the fast break with the best of them (2 time slam dunk champ).

absolute typical ny knick fan post

lets see why doesnt GS give us their starting C and franchise SG for role players? I know why! because GS was put in the nBA to make NY better! proof--L Sprewell for mills a washed up starks and somebody else!
Nazr====PF not C that we got for cheap
Harrington= role player FW-indecisive guard that showed a few moments over 2 years.

i will only do this if GS throws in pick 10 and gives the knicks 3mm$

Josh Childress reminds me of Jared Jeffries.

I'm not that interested.

yeah, i'm prob biased since im going to stanford, but from what ive seen he looks like he could develop into sometihng... if jeffries wasnt injured he couldve (and still could) have an impact

"It's not like, as well as Frank played in the playoffs, he helped the NYK WIN a single, solitary GAME. Come on, guys."

Let's not get too carried away there crazydumps,
with Frank as our starter the Knicks were 5-0.

Develop into something?
9 times out of ten what you see is what you get.

Micheal Redd is an exception. Redd practiced his jumper and is now an all-star. It's rare but Childress doesn't seem like he has that type of charecter. Same as Jared Jefferies.

Childress needs alot more than just a jumpshot.
Jared Jefferies has moves but who's gonna teach him to h

from what i see josh lacks the most, and i mean MOST! is weight. he does have a good outside shot, and he's athletic. not to mention the fact that he can handle the ball extremely well for his size. not jeffries, more along the lines of maybe teyshawn prince. bare in mind fellas, this kid carried stanford to that record. would'nt mind that pick-up at all.
