New York Knick Trade Musings; Deadline 5 days away, The Humpty Dumpty Gambit
Some things are becoming crystally obvious, neither Marc Gasol nor LaMarcus Aldridge are signing in New York as Free Agents this summer. All of which means that Phil Jackson and company can concentrate on signing good chemistry guys this summer and there are plenty of them.
But that's getting ahead of the game. Tonight let's examine players who for one reason or another are no longer Knicks but who thrived here as players and who might be fun to require for old time's sake if for no other reason. And, yes, we know this will never happen.
This thread could easily have been called the 100 Ways to Trade Bargnani as well.
Jeremy Lin - No, he's no longer riding Linsanity but he's expiring and for the second half of a losing season, he'd be a gas to see play in NY again. The Lakers won't miss him. Bargnani for Lin and Ryan Kelly is workable. The Knicks nor Lakers will lose any sleep about Bargs.
Landry Fields - Fields is just one of those glue players. Fun to watch and earned his pay. Doing nothing in Toronto. How about Bargnani and Acy for Landry Fields and Chuck Hayes?
David Lee - Sure, he's a poor defender but he is a gamer and a small ball center. Good passer. Great teammate. How about Bargnani and Calderon for Lee and Brandon Rush?
Shawne Williams - a very god one-dimensional player. Williams for Larkin?
Nate Robinson - fun to watch, waiting to be signed.

Here, dear readers, is the final resting place of all weary Knicks fans. Yes, here is where one comes when the Triangle refuses to have three sides, when biting one's lip from losing to win later is one loss too far,or when said fan simply hits 'rock' bottom. In short, "the ship be" eternally "sinking" here. Welcome aboard, rearrange the deck chairs as you please.
