The one positive sign in this game was Marcus Camby who outplayed Robinson and Duncan even though the Knicks lost. Camby has been unreal and should be the only untradeable player on the team. It might be time to trade Sprewell, but only for the right player. Rasheed Wallace would be that player. Sprewell and Thomas for Wallace makes prefect sense. I love Spree, but with that deal, we could get back to the top of the east.

Do the Knicks need Rasheed and all the problems he would bring? Remember that NYC is the toughest place in the world to play professional sports. There is no forgiveness in the fans if you don't produce, and I think that Rasheed would wilt in the heat. Then you would have even more problems... PLUS a big salary..and a long contract.

Build from the ground up... Bag this year, and get some players who would grow in the environment. Take a chance on Omar for little money and a short contract. Get rid of Krazy-eyes Thomas, shed either Sprewell or Houston, move Jackson to back-up point with the responsibility to teach your other guards how to paly and act in NYC. Get a good coach.. Sorry Mr Chaney, you have not been able to inspire this team or to push them into your mold.

Trade talk this year is not going very far.. Most teams have settled in and aren't looking for anything the Knicks have to offer, and have very little to offer the Knicks.
