i think the best we can hope for is that kurt's finger is healed and he's playing at a high level by the allstar break so we can move him. like others have said, he's best as a 6th man, and i think he's ready to accept that role now that he has his extension (unlike last year with dice). i'm probably crazy, but i think he's going to play REALLY well marbury. look at doleac - look at what playing with marbury did to his value and kurt has a very similar offensive game.
very good point about KT's possible readiness to be a backup since he now has his extension...financial security definitely plays a role in why a player might not have been open to taking a backup role in the past...
now don't get me wrong, i'm not trying to say KT is a garbage player that no one wants...only that it seems the Knicks signed him to an extension figuring he'd have good trade value, & for some reason or another, not many other teams seem interested in making any worthwhile trades for him...
on the 1 hand, if you're right that KT has a great year playing w/Marbs & his finger is fully healed, then his trade value goes up...but on the other hand, i want to see Sweetney starting games sometime this year, but then if KT goes back to being a backup PF, how does his trade value increase? it's a catch 22 it seems.
After 7 years & 40K+ posts, banned by martin for calling Nalod a 'moron'. Awesome.
