Reassessing the Knicks Part 2

The recent activity of waiving Dalembert and trading away Jr Smith and Shumpert has changed the mid-season trade opportunities for the Knicks significantly.  First, we can presume further trades with the Cavs and OKC are unlikely or they would have been weaved into yesterday's roster change activity.  Secondly, the Knicks are now armed with A LOT of trade exceptions that can be used to grease the wheels of other teams seeking to improve their second-half playoff chances.

In the first part of this thread, I talked about what the Knicks should do with Stoudemire and Bargnani.  Nothing more needs to be said.

The next order of business, IMO, are potential Pablo Prigioni trades.  Previously, I suggested a trade with the Clippers that still seems to have some potential;

Revised Clips/Knicks Trade Proposal

Jordan Farmar and the Clippers 2015 second-rounder 31-55 that remains the Clips to trade for Prigioni and Acey.

Clippers unload a headache and get a solid second wave PG and gritty PF.

Knicks open up a roster spot as well.  Prigioni gets to play for a contender.

That trade can be slightly modified to include Kirk instead of Acey which gives the Clips an immediate bit of cap relief if *they* waive Kirk.  Or Amundson works instead of Acey as well giving them an expiring contract. Update: Kirk and Amundson are waived.

Revised Portland/Knicks Trade Proposal

Dalembert, Prigioni, and Acey for Thomas Robinson and Will Barton

This trade must be modified to Prigioni and Acey for Barton and Klaver.  Klaver wants out of Portland and Acey becomes redundant in NY given the new faces.

New New Orleans/Knicks Trade Proposal

Prigioni for Salmons

Salmons an expiring contract.
