This hasn't been rumored directly, but if Dajuan Wagner can't handle the point in summer leagues, they will be looking to deal him for a point guard.
If the Knicks obtain Crawford (and JYD) in a sign-and-trade for KT, Othella, Deke, and Cezary, that would leave the Knicks with Penny and Crawford being able to handle the point for stretches.
Could the Knicks and Cavs work out a deal, Moochie Norris and Frank Williams (two capable PGs the Cavs would need) for Dajuan Wagner and Tony Battie.
Battie is a guy that defend other teams better big men, and Wagner could be a spark off the bench who pours in points.
I love Frank but if the Knicks get Crawford, they'll have other guys who can handle his duties and do more. I think Wagner (6th pick in the draft) is still a guy who could become a very good player.
I see this being a move that might happen around the trade deadline, when the Knicks realize they need another big man and don't need 2 PG's backing up a guy who plays 40 mpg, and the Cavs are in desperate need of a guy to handle the ball so LeBron can play the 2. I think it helps both teams.
