In the comments section of the Dallas related post, there was discussion of a hypothetical deal that would have sent Jared Jeffries to Dallas for three expiring contracts, two of which were young players with unproven track records.
During the conversation, I broached the notion that Donnie Walsh would not take three players with little or [...]
So let me get this straight.
You trade two starters to move up to the 5th pick in the draft.
You draft Rubio with the 5th pick, a player who you know is temperamental about where he sees himself playing, along with the notion that he has to earn enough money to buy himself out of his [...]
We know Ramon Sessions is playing the waiting game, as the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel wrote about today, but there is a key point worth noting.
“…The Knicks clearly expressed a strong interest in Sessions, but they were unwilling to do anything to compromise their chances of signing LeBron James or another elite free agent (Dwyane Wade, Chris [...]
Dan Fegan was hired for this very reason- to get his client to a big market. So with Ricky Rubio’s endorsement funds in the Twin Cities lacking, it would appear that the attention has turned into trying to force a deal to the Knicks.
But there are several key factors in play here.
First, David Kahn worked [...]
Now let me preface this as not to upset anyone who is allergic to speculation. But I have a feeling there is something in the works regarding the Knicks roster.

With no apparent sit downs planned, the Knicks may move on as [...]

“…However, this is where it gets interesting. Here is a link to Robinson’s verified Twitter account where you can see the post.
But, to follow that up, the Twitter feed of Goodwin Sports, the agency that represents Robinson, had this post a couple hours ago:
“Contrary to the NY Post, Nate Robinson/reps will NOT be [...]
Aside from a draft night trade for Darko Milicic, the Knicks have been patient this off season. However, since 2002, the Knicks have made many (few good) moves. Here’s a look back at a few moves the team has made over the past decade.
August 29, 2008- Acquired forward Patrick Ewing Jr. from the Houston Rockets [...]
At first the thought intrigued me. Imagine Allen Iverson in a Knicks uniform.
And when I thought more about it, I realized that we really aren’t part of the Isiah Thomas Era anymore. Imagine if Zeke were still calling the shots this summer?
Fortunately for Knicks fans, he isn’t, and they all should pinch themselves every time [...]
