you are forgetting that he is damaged goods and no a winner. yet marbury kurt thomas and nazr are. 36pts 10rebs 6assists cant mean much on a 23-11 team

we have no chance at trading for webber this year, wt hll would sacremneto trad ehim when they have a team than can legitimately win it all? What scares me is the 3 Y and 60mm he has left starting at age 33. If Im Sacremento, I may think this is his bon voyage party, and wait to ream a team like the Knicks who would be willing to take the 20mm per on.

But thats not going to just cost an ending contract, Geoff Petrie will pimp our 1st round pick, Ariza and Sweetney along with T Thomas and Baker. Petrie is a tough smart dude to deal with. hes not stupid, webber play continues like this--the asking price will be HIGH

it wont be something like two ending contract + a pick--it will be two ending contracts a pick + two young assets --similar to the marbury trade. Anyone can say, hey Webber is better than Marbury, no? so why should they take less? the owners and GM are smart--they would get maximum value from us--and remember its NOT this season. that would be our big move-losing all the young players and pick for webber. if thast what you want and take a 2 yr run at it, well it sure is possible iMHO. But anyone who thinks they are trading him this year are of their rocker, they have a good shot, especially after the upgrade of mobley here is the boxscore vs the clippers

I keep hoping these Webber discussions will just die. I think I may actually cry if he came to NY.
He is not exactly the definition of 'physical health' and with his knee problems, I wonder how many more years he will actually be able to stay in the league.
I'm not even going to go into his contract.
As BRIGGS mentioned, he would cost us plenty. When all is said and done, and we give up the players SacTown wants, are we championship calibur? No, so why trade young for old, and take on that extra salary.
Myself, I'd prefer to just start Sweetney and help him develop.

I honestly dont want to see Webber as a Knick. I can just see him getting injured again and us having to deal with another injured max contract player.

I am so with both of you guys. So he had one game where his jumper was falling. He is the opposite of rebuilding.

Btw on an OT note - everyone was saying that Orlando traded Mobley for Christie to upgrade ther D - Mobley had 4 blocks in this game for Sacr - 4 blocks!
