01/30- B. GRANT ON THE BLOCK- We have been hinting and hinting, but its now basically a reality. Miami Heat forward Brian Grant is available. Meaning the Heat, will attempt to trade him and his hefty contract for 2 players who can improve their squad. With the Heat looking to split up the dollars currently invested in Grant, its likely they can find a deal before the trade deadline. One team with serious interest in Grant is the New York Knicks, although history may preclude a deal. A Knicks source suggests they have offered out a package which includes Charlie Ward, and Knicks forward Kurt Thomas for Grant. Considering the manner in which they pursued Grant prior to Miami landing him, its certainly possible a deal could take place.
