NY:
Rose, Jones, ZBo Chandler OR Balkman
for
Artest Hughes KT

CLE:
Hughes Gooden Snow 1st
for
Bibby ZBo

SAC:
Bibby Artest KT
for
Rose, Gooden, Snow, Jones, CLE 1st, Balkman OR Chandler

Why:
SAC: go into rebuild mode and move KT's contract, get a couple young guys and a pick. Can look at it as Bibby for Snow Gooden 1st, Artest for Jones Rose Balkman Chandler, plus the benefit of dumping KT for nothing.

CLE:
get the PG they want, don't have to take on KT's contract, they do have to take on ZBo's but they get rid of Hughes in the process. ZBo>Gooden; Bibby>Hughes, plus get rid of dead weight in Snow, pick will mid-to late 1st anyway.

NY:
Clear out frontcourt by moving ZBo, add defense.

Done.

The knicks are gonna have to find a new home for Richardson, Crawford etc... cuz they gonna have to many guards after this trade

The Cavs would probably take Crawford for Marshall or something.

This trade works: http://games.espn.go.com/nba/features/traderesult?players=25~61~849~2986~165~1017~739~1711~356~512~796&teams=18~5~18~23~5~5~23~23~18~18~23&te=&cash=
Same trade, just with Crawford and Marshall added, and Jones taken out. Cavs would also include a 1st.

Bad for the Kings.

Thomas for Rose is a definite plus, but outside of that it's Bibby and Artest for expirings, a late pick, and 1 of 2 SF's that we have no use for.

Artest Hughes KT

I don't like this deal at all for the Knicks. Its essentially the same Artest to NY deal we've seen a billion times with Randolph for Hughes thrown in. While I would happily make that Artest deal there is no way in hell I would make that Z-Bo for Hughes deal.

Kings pass, easily.

The Bibby to Cleveland thing has been done to death, any trade one team will accept the other quickly rejects. It's not going to happen.

Also, I seriously doubt that Bibby and Artest get moved as part of the same deal, I can see both being moved but not in the same deal.
