TMac to Kings?

and there goes out 2 max players this summer.. im tired of this trust donnie nonsense, give me a break.. needed to make this deal happen, team relies on 2010 and nothing else come on

http://realgm.net/src_wiretap_archives/64816/20100218/rockets_gave_up_on_new_york_trade_scenario_for_martin/

Well so far both Adrian Wojnarowski and Marc Stein are saying it’s happening.

http://sports.espn.go.com/nba/news/story?id=4923777

man get monta
the warriors would luv for som1 to take monta contract

they will take jeffries etc

It’s like the Rockets used the Knicks trade offer to better negotiate with the Kings. That way they could tell the Kings to take it or leave it because if anything the Rockets could turn to the Knicks. Seemed like a win-win for the Rockets.

I guess tomorrow won’t be the biggest day in Knicks history since the Ewing sweepstakes afer all.

Deja Vu?

I hate Jared Jeffries.

No “LOL”, no “ROTFL” and no “LMAO”.

No disrespect to Jared Jeffries but I really hate him.

As of now, I’d sooner compare tomorrow to the day the Knicks drafted prized big man Frederic Weis.

Be patient my friends!

The guy to really hate the idiot who gave him this ridiculous contract in the first place.

Ric Bucher is getting in on the fun now.

“If Sac and Hou can pull Knicks into 3-team deal, Sergio Rodriguez + TMac would go to NY, a source says. Told Sac-Hou two-way deal not done.”

http://twitter.com/RicBucher/status/9273278146

Now trade David Lee with Jared Jeffries and a first round draft pick (+ filler) for a Ray Allen or a Manu Ginobili.

yup
the league uses the knicks

for everything

““…Two league sources tell Y! Sports that Kings are unsure whether they will keep T-Mac, or move him onto Knicks in a deal before deadline.”

Nice update Tommy.

This is where Tellem comes into play. (McGradys agent)

Let’s see what happens.

Stay Patient My Friends.

lmao

I know.

Sometimes you just don’t want to put things into perspective though. I respect JJ – he plays hard – but I hate his inability to play NBA basketball.

Now what?? this 2010 thing is falling apart right before donnie’s eyes! Will you guys now say “Well we will have tons of money for 2011″ C’mon if thats the case then donnie really did nothing at all but trade Z-Bo & Crawford for now reason blow to lottery picks and miss out on LBJ who anybody who is honest knows was the target all along for donnie!

A few days ago, I came up w/ this…

http://games.espn.go.com/nba/tradeMachine?tradeId=yftwtqy

Throw in our 2012 first

It makes sense for GS since they get rid of monta’s contract, they get youth in hill, a talent in lee who fits their system, and cuttino’s insurance money would more or less pay for JJ’s contract next year. Throw in the1st and maybe they would pull. Granted, azubuike is good, so idk.

*Crosses fingers – prays to God”

for the love of god, please

I want monta.

Well it’s making me feel slightly better seeing how Marc Stein, Woj and Bucher are saying Knicks are apparently supposed to be involved.

Wow, it would be great if Knicks could pull both Tmac and Sergio from this. I can’t watch Suckhon much longer, it’s like he was cursed by some evil magician who thought it would be hilarious to have Suckhon constantly find ways to stick in the rotation, providing the fans with no respite from his awful play. Will DW work some magic of his own? I’m gonna say no since this franchise is so cursed(probably because of the lack of mitzvahs of its owner). Does Phil Jackson sell his zen master services to other teams?

i would try to sign A morrow also but most likely warriors match

thats real talk

Jeffries is sabotaging the trade with his fake knee injury!!

So hypothetically, we get involved and get sergio and tmac

Our team could look something like this

PG-Duhon (d’antoni wont start sergio)
SG- Tmac
Sf- Gallo
PF- Chandler
C- Lee
Bench
Sergio
T. Thomas (from a harrington trade)
Eddie House (nate trade)
JR Giddens (Nate trade)
Ghostface
Bender
Landry

Anyone see a problem here (?)….we kind of have nobody who can play center except Lee. James isn’t getting minutes; neither is curry, so something else would HAVE to be done. Tyrus and Bender aren’t strong enough to play center.

lol

Btw, I still want the knicks to inquire about mike conley…

Maybe we’ll go after Drew Gooden? Idk otherwise…unless donnie has something up his sleeve somehow for boozer but extremely doubtful

if donnie was a good g.m he would trade for monta he got alot of expiring use some of them a get some talent DONNIE don’t bank everything on this summer

if monta was a free agent this summer he would be top 5 f.a

“If T-Mac gets buy out with Kings, he privately hopes to sign with Lakers or Cavaliers for the playoffs, source close to him tells Y!”

LOL @ “I want to resurrect my career in NY”

Nah, Gooden is smart enough to sign with a playoff-bound team.

Yeah let’s throw the whole plan out the window for a turnover machine who hasn’t led his team anywhere yet. I like Monta Ellis but you’re crazy lol – no offense.

Damn Sergio and Tmac together would be sweet along with getting rid of Jeffries. Not sure how much the Knicks would have to give up. And Sergio is kind of useless on the Rockets, no role there.

http://sports.espn.go.com/nba/news/story?id=4923777

atleast monta is for sure in a trade nothing else is

but donnie has this summer

if it’s 2011 then i’m going to to laughing so hard

but i’m pretty sure 2.0 versions of z-bo an craw are coming..

Tommy–

Would you include JHill in the deal with Sac to acquire CLandry?

He actually prefers memphis or milwaukee….either way, my point is that our options are beyond limited…

http://realgm.net/src_wiretap_archives/64817/20100218/mcgrady_hopes_to_sign_with_cavs_or_lakers_if_waived/

here is what t-mac wants

Not happening and i’m not tommy, but that would be a no brainer; yes.

Tellem!!

Tellem!!

Tellem!!

I would take monta, lbj, and camby….

From David Aldridge– Source: still “decent” chance TMac winds up with Knicks by deadline Thursday, despite trade to Kings.

http://twitter.com/daldridgetnt

Give me Tmac and Dorsey. SRod would be good, but I like Dosery’s toughness and athleticism.

Dorsey over Sergio = epic fail

what the hell are you talking about?

We can still get James and afford to keep Lee.

Plus use Curry and JJ contracts in a trade next season.

Updated ESPN post says the plan is to send T-Mac and Rodriguez to the NYK, this is just a fallback if NYK can’t fulfill the parameters for a trade…

http://sports.espn.go.com/nba/news/story?id=4923777

Random, but I kind of wonder why we haven’t explored acquiring amare…i mean honestly, not saying they would b/c they want the cap room, but conceivably, D-Lee, JJ, J. Hill and a 2012 first (with a trade exception included to get everything to work), would be a far superior deal to something like Z, hickson, and a first considering that hill prob has more upside than JJ, and although they get locked in to some cap, they get lee who they could re-sign, so Idk. Obviously good from our end. Don’t think it’s bad from there’s.

Throw in Nate, Hughes and Douglas and you might not need to give up a first.

for Ray

it’s probably going to have to be HUGHES AND JJ for TMAC and RODRIGUEZ to work…

http://games.espn.go.com/nba/tradeMachine?tradeId=yh3rsg9

From David Aldridge; If Kings move TMac to NY, it would be 4 same package Knicks were offering Houston: Jeffries, Hill, Hughes, picks.

http://twitter.com/daldridgetnt

LOL, this works….
http://games.espn.go.com/nba/tradeMachine?tradeId=yj42y55

This is wild….

Until the updates stop for an hour or so I don’t think I’ll be getting any sleep. I know Walsh is up so I have to stay up. I don’t want to miss anything.

yeah ,jerome james

how do you know that?

Walsh has been asleep since the 09 DRAFT!

It’s not even 12:30 out in Sac town.

Can’t miss this.

We NEED sergio; we don’t need dorsey…

Via Twitter:

Sounding like McGrady goes to NY in morning. Third team involvement clouds final destinations.

Updated Twitter:

Sergio Rodriguez and Kenny Thomas have no idea where they’re going. Just talked to both. #nbakings

I agree about rodriguez., but Dorsey is a good young player to have. But Sergio does bring much needed passing and youthfulness to the knicks.

Well it is still Very possible we can make a deal work that actually makes the Rockets a better team than just straight up trading with the Kings.

With Draft picks and Money put into the picture….this trade works in the ESPN Trade Machine…
And it fits the Goal that the Media says is trying to be met.

Rockets Get:
Kevin Martin (9.6 4 yrs)
Jared Jeffries (6.,4, 2 yrs)
Larry Hughes (13.6, 1 yr)
Jordan Hill (2.4, 2 yrs)

Kings Get:
Carl Landry (3, 1 yr)
Joey Dorsey (.881 K, 3 yrs)
Kyle Lowry (2, 1 yr)
Brian Cook (3.5, 1 yr)

Knicks Get :
Tracy Mcgrady (22.8, 1 yr)
Sergio Rodriguez (1.5, 1 yr)

This clears cap space for both the Kings and the Knicks and also give the Rockets equal value for Mcgrady than just releasing him. They also get a guy in Jordan Hill who can help be a future player for them.

Now even though the numbers didnt match up, the Knicks have some cap room to bring in Sergio and Mcgrady while getting rid of Jeffries,Hughes and Hill….Which results in clearing up 8.8 Million dollars which helps sign 2 Max free agents and also gives them some money to consider bringing back David Lee.I always wondered if the Knicks could sign David Lee to another 1 year deal in hopes to resign him to an extension once Currys contract comes off the books.

Via Twitter:

Was told of McGrady going to New York: “They’ll deal with that component in the morning.”

WOW! T-Mac wants to go to a winning team and doesn’t wanna come here and add another year of not making the playoffs or getting past the 1st round in the playoffs to his storybook career?

I’m dumbfounded! What team or player would play on our Knicks affection like that!

It doesn’t matter anyway, it’s all about 2010-11!

Be patient and sit the gun down for a moment before putting it your head!

Who tweeted that?

lmao! Go to sleep DVJ, Grandpa Donnie will wake ya up with a story about the BIG one that got away so you can rely it to us.

elmer fudd

Their all over it on Sacramento radio.

Everybody thinks the Kings will forward T-Mac to the Knicks.

Their even going over the Knicks players….Jeffries, Hill and Hughes.

http://twitter.com/sam_amick

If so, houston got so screwed that it’s funny….on espn, all of the rockets fan are irate at the thought of giving up all that cap room and landry for martin, LOL

McGrady to New York is virtually a lock according to Sacramento radio.

Still no word on S-Rod

If we don’t get srod, I still want mike conley. Granted, I would take conley over s-rod.

lol

Wow, Sactown just had a Westchester caller.

Incredible.

T-Mac will be in NY by the deadline tomorrow.

Sacramento made out like a bandit in this.

When it’s all said and done, they’ll have Tyreke Evans, Casspi and Jordan Hill from this years draft.

Plus their shedding millions in salary even after taking on Jeffries contract.

Not bad.

Initially I thought the Rockets made a good deal but that was before I realized they traded Landry. I thought they sent the same players they were offering us. Rockets fans have a right to be mad.

I am right there with everyone who is explaining why is it risky and irrsponsible to trade a young raw player like hill…. BUT…

If we are also getting T. Thomas, i think that makes up for it. He’s only 23, still on his rookie contract, and is probably the most prolific shot blocker in the league. Iif he were playing in an uptempo system he would wreak havoc. He is a BEAST; could become a very special player, if put in the right situation. Him and chandler would be quite a pair of forwards on both ends.

i look at this like we are trading hughes for t-mac , and hill for T thomas, jeffries for sergio… That trade is too good to be true, which is why we are going to include a future draft pick.

But that’s a damn good trade IMO.

We could have Sergio, T-Mac (who, even if he has lost a step, would be by far the best guard we have had all year), chandler, Thomas, and lee, with douglas, galo Landry, eddie house off the bench. I like the sound of that, for now and for the future; But now we would also have enough room for 2 max guys this summer.

I have been for this trade from the start and i still am.

Yea and while your at it hate the old fart who has been in NBA management for almost 30 years and still has no idea that a basketball team needs a PG & Center! As well as gave us that all star Duhon at 6mil rather then get Jay William when he could or any upgrade at PG. Who drafted Hill in the lottery just to use him as trade bait rather then a building block because he is not one! Yea it will be JJ’s contract that will stop LBJ from becoming a Knick not the fact that the GM failed to build a team the right way in the draft so that there are not so many damn holes and much more talent on the team!!

Bottom line right now if donnie the mastermind would of did the right thing the team would look like…

PG) Jennings or any PG you like because he could of traded up.
SG) Open
SF) Chandler
PF)Lee
C) Lopez

this would be the team with the money this off season to sign Lebron!! But noooo donnie is right why would a superstar want that line up as a supporting cast!! LMAO yea live in the here and now buddy and blame whats going on now on who is in charge now and stop trying to pass the buck!! Story is he could of traded JJ last year whats up with that huh?? lol you guys kill me.

I would go for that!

No the question is what the hell are you drinking?

Why in the hell would Lebron come here now when his team just upgraded in a way that there is no way there not playing Kobe for the ring this year and next!?!

Your right Lee is the key!! Lebron wants to come to a team with no center no PG that plays no Dee because he is sick of being on the team that is playing the best Dee in the league!

There it go’s the switch to 2011 slight of hand by the donnie bunch! Told you guys that would be the new story and spin!! lmao

For the record LBJ was the only target that is common sense! Wade was never an option he was and will never play on the Knicks and will damn sure never play second fiddle to LBJ he is a star in his own right and if he leaves its to go to his home town bulls and have his robin in Rose to his batman!

That leaves the other FA’s, I like Bosh but he was not the real target nether was Amare so who is left gaye? C’mon man!!! Wake up and put the cool-aid down!! lmaooo I refuse to let donnie or his cheerleaders off the hook if he trys to twist and spin this to some “oh well we will be swimming in money in 2011″crap, no damn way!

lmaooooo that was funny and glad you can see through the BS at least with that statement lol

If we make a trade with Sac why would we take TMac and not try to get Thompson?? screw Landry if we can get Thompson & Sergio!! Thats a real move that makes the team over all better rather then just looking to dump salary!! Geeez!

Say good bye to Lebron now that he got Jamison.

Wade is staying in Miami

Bosh and Amare are the 2 out there that are ?’s

Big day today

That piss poor deal surrendering draft picks and Jordan Hill was too close for comfort. This almost happened : Insider View of Morey-Walsh Negotiations Definitely not for the eyes of Walsh’ apologists.

How do we add anything to the deal? Seems like Rockets/Kings deal alone is better for them.

Agreed..Stay patient

LMAO..Thats fckd up..LOL!

This may be asking for too much but I Just Hope Donnie is trying Memphis for OJ Mayo.
OJ is not getting along with Rudy (Chemistry Wise) and he is playing bad.
I think Wilson would fit in better with Memphis because he can play and because hes not that Ball Dominant.

Flip flop.
