Briggs, who are we gonna get that fills in the PF? I love Sweets and his OR-ing but he cant fill that void. We have too many SF's and guards.. Trading a PF/C isnt gonna help. I would take this deal in an instant if theres a PF that we can get who can fill the void.
Again the deal is about being pro-active towards the future. If you believe that KT is the difference between the Knicks not winning the championship, then hold'em. I se it differently. I think the Knicks have a very good shot at either Dampier or Mihm-possibly Swift and Doleac at the lower case exception. This would allow Nazr or Sweetney to start 4. Is it possible we could pick up both Dampier and Doleac--it is possible and we will see very soon. I really believe Nazr is much more of a 4 than a 5--although he can move to 5.
Even if we walk away with just Doleac--KT IMHO is gone. The whole key is getting value while their is value to be had UNLESS you feel the player is a difference maker.
KT as a starter the last 4 years has produced an average of 36 wins.
