No offense I think I'd blow my brains out if that happened.

I don't think I'd be interested in Curry & their pick in any way because the only contract of value we could give up is RJ since we'd have to match salaries. I just don't see it ever happening nor would I want it to happen.


p.s. I'll let it slide since you're pretty new (granted I'm never around anymore either. I only post in the post season), but we don't talk about Sean May here. There was a huge argument about Sean May last year. Let's not get into that conversation again lol.

It's a good thought on fixing out PF woes though but I just don't think it's the direction I'd be willing to take.

I know Ill probably be alone here but I think we HAVE TO at least try to trade for Curry.

Look Curry is an amazing player that just had one bad season because a lockerroom canser named Zack Randolph took over his spot and Curry got lost.

I truely believe that with Vince,RJ and Devin giving him the ball he'll be able to do some amazing things.
What's even better is that his value is at an all time low so we can get him for dirt cheap something along this trade will probably work

Knicks get some expiring contracts and a PG with some major upside (that will never reach his potential under Frank) that should flourish under Diantoni.
What's more we also get a 6th pick that can turn into what looks to me like the next great European player (Gallinari)

His contract is too long and very big , he doesn't play defense , he doesn't rebound , doesn't block shots , is overweight and has never been in the right condition.


Why in the world would we trade for that ?

Because just last year he was a top 5 C in the league and his D can be hiden if you start Boone or Diop next to him and I truely believe that with Vince,Devin and RJ he can recover very fast.

Sorry, man. I'm going to have to disagree with you on this one. He's been constantly out of shape since turning pro. He's slow, tires easily, and isn't great on the defensive end and as of last year, not great on the offensive end. Confidence issues are starting to surface and commits dumber fouls than Jamaal Magloire. He also has a big contract that I'm not willing to take on.

And no to the original trade. If NY wants, I'll consider swapping our 10th and 21st for their 6th. Hell, I don't even like the second part of the deal in getting Sean May. It's not realistic and they probably wouldn't take Curry anyway.

i'll take the pick and Balkman for the 10th and 21st. But not for Gallinari, but for the chance to get Mayo, Gordan or Speights which I believe will go in the top ten.

Wow!
Just wow.

We HAVE to at least try to trade for Curry?!
Eddie Curry is an amazing player?!

Who had one bad season?!

It doesn't matter who's giving him the ball, he is not doing amazing things, especially passing it back.

Gross.

10+21 for 6 on its own is fair. Adding Curry is not.
