Grizz beat writer Ron Tillery, who recently reported the team is mulling a Zach Randolph for Darko/Walker deal, has an interesting quote from GM Chris Wallace this morning.

“We took care of some of the things we needed to do,” general manager Chris Wallace said. “We got more talent in, which is the overall job. We got more athleticism. We picked up some size with a variety of big men who have different skills. At some point in time, we’ve got to get some veterans that will take us to another level. That opportunity wasn’t there this summer.”

Sounds like any deal with the Knicks is a longshot.

“We’ve got certain holes,” Wallace conceded. “We could use some backup help at small forward behind Rudy. We need more shooting and another big banger at the power forward spot. We’re still a work in progress.”

And one that can use a 20 and 10 guy.
