Only way NY has a chance is if he signs his qualifying offer and looks to free agency next year. http://www.nba.com/knicks/freeagency/faqs.html What is a qualifying offer? Your second question is interesting. In theory I guess it is possible but since he is a restricted FA Detroit has the ability to match any offer. So for a trade you suggested to happen Detroit would have to renounce the qualifying offer and make him an unrestricted FA then he can sign for anything but I doubt he would settle for 3.6M unless he really wants to play in NY. Now, if he signs the qualifying offer I believe he has to stay with the team until a certain date then after that date he can be trade. That is the opportunity to get him in a trade but why give up assets for that caliber of player if he is going into FA. Maybe you do if you can limit your assets to a future 2nd and fillers and he agrees to an extension. |
