instead of Crawford because he is bigger better younger and never had a knee injury like Crawford+ the cost would likely be less.


Something like KT Othella +Demarr Johnson for Joe Johnson Jake Voshkul Howard Eisley

i fail to see how you think this trade is realistic but previous ideas involving KT going to Chicago for JC weren't.

well Pheonix just signed Ricahardson they need a big man to play with Amare, there is no base compensation issues johnson is flat out better than Crawford the cash junk part is much smaller+ we could take Voshkul who is an underrated part time winning type of player who does the little things. this deal makes much more sense for us. does it make sense for Phoenix? well i dont think they can keep marion johnson richardson carbakapa Jacobsen and then pay them all. Like someone said KTs contract is now a deal and its DOUBTFUL that you will be able to get something better than KT +also get rid of eisley.

I view KT as a C when we are talking about playing with PF's like Amare or Garnett. He's better at C because --other than Shaq--he can guard anyone who plays there and the foot speed at C is much slower than PF. KT is one of the leagues better rebounders hes tough hes a great shot maker from 8-14 feet and can block shots and defend the 5 at what now is a reasonable cost. If we had a stud athletic PF, I would not trade KT--but I view the Knicks as a work in progress that needs to define itself over the next 2 years. KT isnt winning any titles here unless a miracle like Kobe come s here

come on man, I mean crawford is what 1 year older than Johnson, stop trying to use age to justify who is better, from now on briggs, lets have a new rule, if there is a age difference of 3 years or less, let's not make that a big factor in determining talent... OK...

Anyway, Crawford is a extremely talented guard, he has superb and I mean superb handles, speed and scoring ability, he can but up big numbers and the kid is just scratching the surface, coupled with Marbury that will be the quickest, deadliest backcourt in basketball, I mean talk about matchup Nightmares, I really like Joe Johnson but there are players like him in this league, who can do what he does, crawford is that special type player, for stretches he can look as unstoppable as anyone, that threat is what I think IT likes, the knicks need a player like that, he is the type of guy that can change a series.....

KT is a power forward. He can guard a C, but offensive end he is not strong under the basket, or posting up. THe dude has good value at PF if he is deemed expendable due to Sweets emergence.

No, Pheonix said the reason Joe emerged as a star was becuase Marbury left. Marbury's style did not fit with Joe.
