faba Posted February 24, 2005 Share Posted February 24, 2005 The Nets look like right now that they had their little run at mediocrity and are sinking unfortunately. The lack of frontcourt big man is their shortcoming that Carter and Kidd together can not overcome I do not think in the long run. Knicks are a hopeless case!

The Knicks should be going buck-wild right now trying to dump contracts. No one on that team is untouchable. They suck. The Nets are disappointing because they really have no one to even trade right now. It's 2006 time for the Nets already. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
faba Posted February 24, 2005 Share Posted February 24, 2005 New York Knicks-San Antonio Spurs-Houston Rockets: The Knicks are in the process of adding more big salaries to their roster. Two league sources told ESPN Insider Chad Ford that New York has traded Nazr Mohammed and Jamison Brewer to the Spurs for Malik Rose and a first-round pick. The Knicks also traded Vin Baker and Moochie Norris to the Rockets for Maurice Taylor and a first-round pick, Ford reports. Once again, team president Isiah Thomas is willing to take back huge contracts to get more talent. In the Spurs deal, the Knicks are sending back $5.5 million in future salaries for the remaining four years, $27.3 million of Rose's contract. In the Rockets deal, Thomas is sending back $8 million in future salaries and getting back $18 million in return. In total, the Knicks, who have the largest payroll in the league, will add an extra $32 million in future salaries. For the Rockets, this trade was a salary dump and an effort to shore up a thin point-guard crop. For the Spurs, not only did the clear $21 million in long term salary, they got another legit center in Mohammed -- something the team felt the desperately needed. TS what do you think of these moves by Knicks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TS what do you think of these moves by Knicks Good God. Bro, they have to be getting Taylor and Rose for the sole reason of turning around and re-dealing them. I'll be happy if the Nets get Rose. He's the physical presence they need down low. Not a great player, but an excellent complementary guy. The Knicks now have 11 PF's--Sweetney, Kurt Thomas, Rose and Taylor. There's definitely something else in the works here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These moves do not make sense- Isiah has been saying all along they want to get salary flexibility and he goes and adds future salaries to highest payroll. All PF's and no bonafide center for the Knicks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

124 Posted February 24, 2005 Share Posted February 24, 2005 Walker is going back to Boston with Pierce, good move for the Celtics in my mind. On another note: 76ERS = 2005 EASTERN CONFERENCE CHAMPIONS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blackout Posted February 28, 2005 Share Posted February 28, 2005 i would love for someone like Baron Davis to be on the Knicks though, its better than anything we've got all we can do is hope for Ariza and Sweetney to get some experience while we finish our next 2 months on the losing side Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
