I really hope we don't lose Douglas for Crawford...

bibby is 33.

He has improved his percentages. It wouldn't be terrible, but I'd trade Douglas.

Only for one year though. Balk, Walker will be free-agents next year right?

They going in anyway, with only 9 players on their roster.

Yea it makes no sense for them to want Douglas when they have Teague and Hinrich anyway.

Shammy can rest easy lol.

People forget at times we struggled offensively when Chauncey was hurt and one of the two big scorers was not playing up to their level. We had a few ugly games like this. Lots of guys kinda standing around waiting for someone to step up...

I'll take Crawford back if hes a package deal with Gus johnson...

You know in that situation, sixth man Jamal Crawford will not stand around .

the knicks were playing hot potato in game 3 without amar'e and chauncey. every time carmelo gave them the ball to get points they would give it right back to him as if they were scared to shoot.

Who would be our starting PG though?
Inside news on Baron Davis?

Latest news on B-Diddy is that he might be bought out so he can skip the amnesty process -- which puts us in a GREAT position to land him because he wants to play for us or LA (according to SI and ESPN reports). I'll sign up for Davis as our starting PG.

That can not be over looked. I wasn't aware of this.

Two sources confirm @AlexKennedyNBA report that Knicks are looking into a sign and trade with Atlanta for free agent gunner Jamal Crawford.
2 minutes ago

I'm biased against Crawford because of the Isiah years. He also doesn't address the point guard need and I'm excited to see what Shumpert can do at shooting guard. And Crawford didn't have such a good year last year. I don't know how I'd feel about this even if it were possible.

I would definitely pick up JC if possible but thats not happening, we need more offense no doubt, more shooters are needed, the more talent the better, more depth, the good teams have depth.

Man he loves him some west coast though...Him being a west coast guy and the opp to play for Lakers it might be too tempting to pass up.

This is good news. And since the Lakers are getting Paul (I assume he's not talking Clippers here), that would leave us in good position to land him.

" Sneaker_Money: JCrossover are you going to be at the Hawks open scrimmage friday?"--dont think so

Crawfords twitter just now.

I will be pleased to have him on this team as the 6th man.

lakers just pulled out of paul deal. they're sending odom to dallas for the trade exception they got from the chandler deal.
