Found this interesting article on Yahoo. I know it's
a stretch to get LeBron, but does anyone remember the
excitement on ultimateknicks.com when there was a
slight chance that we could have drafted Yao?

3. New York Knicks

Whenever the subject of the Knicks comes up around the
league you hear variations on the same comment: Well,
they certainly have a talented roster. Translation:
They have a mishmash of guys who might be good but
can't play together. Shake up the roster, you might
say. The problem is general manager Isiah Thomas has
done little else besides shake up the roster since he
took over.

But Thomas' first priority is getting a coach -- which
is making for a unique cross-continental
who's-going-to-lead-us? war between the Lakers and
Knicks -- and he had better make a good choice. As
great as Lenny Wilkens once was, he was not the man to
lead the Knicks.

After next season the Knicks have quite a bit of
potential wiggle room under the salary cap with a few
high-priced contracts expiring, including Penny
Hardaway's $15.75 million. But my guess is Thomas has
his mind on only one name -- LeBron James. The word is
Thomas has cultivated a relationship with James's
agent, Aaron Goodwin, with whom he worked to get Jamal
Crawford from Chicago. But James is a restricted free
agent before he's unrestricted, and, anyway, playing
in Madison Square Garden doesn't have quite the allure
it used to.

This guy has a point, but he's a mathmatical moron. We won't be under the cap that year, because we'll still be paying Allan Houston, Shandon Anderson, Stephon Marbury, Jamal Crawford, etc...

We have zero shot of being under the cap until H20's contract is over, unless we trade Houston for a shorter contract.

If Lebron wants to sign a one year deal hoping we're far enough under the cap to sign him that year, I'm all for it, but let's be realistic. It won't happen.
