C'mon man, you're a tenured poster...you're better than this. Once we committed to Chandler at the 11th hour we no longer had the full MLE to offer Grant. Since we took ourselves under the cap by amnestying Billups we renounced the MLE. It made us only eligible to offer him the "room" exception for $2.5 million. Do you think he was going to turn down larger offers AND uproot his family and take his kids out of school. If we don't acquire Tyson we land Hill. Berman was all over both stories.
The local reporter for the Suns shot down the Hill to NY thing long before the Tyson situation manifested itself.
We're not going to agree if the issue is whether or not Berman has credibility. Is he better than Isola? Absolutely, but everyone in NY really doesn't have much going on in terms of sources.

You must not be paying attention this offseason. Okay, let me ask you this. Out of our four beat writers who's the one consistently breaking every piece of major news. If you don't know go back and google all the articles in chronological order. Berman, Isola, Hahn or Beck. I challenge you.
He can break all the stories he wants but that doesn't change the fact that he is wrong 9/10 times.

How do we have a board full of people trying to convince themselves that TD can be our starting PG turning up their nose at Jamal Crawford?

"The Knicks are on the verge of landing Grant Hill, according to two NBA sources."
he was way off, but that's water down the drain now.

ctorres wrote:Okay guys, I did some math again. There is just no way for Crawford to get a fair deal without Douglas being included in the deal. If Crawford comes in to the Knicks through sign and trade involving Balkman, Walker, AND Douglas, this is what the absolute best deal for Crawford would look like...
1st year: $5,605,110
2nd year: $6,025,493
3rd year: $6,445,876
4th year: $6,866,259
5th year: $7,286,642
TOTAL: $32,229,380
On a side note, could we sign guys a guy like Shelden Williams to a minimum deal and include him in a sign and trade for Crawford?
