Would you give up Rudy to get David Lee?

    No, I wouldn't move Rudy for him. It's prob a siutation to get value you have to be willing to give it up. Don't think Outlaw or Blake has the same kind of value to the knicks that Rudy has. But because we do lack a real assurance at the four spot. I would prob move them both for Lee if Lee was willing to take a reduced role off the bench. He would put this team neck and neck with the lakers.

    Wow that is probably one of the deepest forward rotations in the NBA. No wonder the Knicks wouldn't be interested in our 3rd leading scorer for the last two seasons.

    Then at Center the Knicks got Darko with Eddy Curry backing him up. Probably the 4th best center rotation in the league.

    They got a three man guard rotation of Nate, Larry Hughes and Duhon. That might be the weak link of the team but is still probably in the top half of the league.

    Sure the team could benefit from LeBron next offseason, I mean what team couldn't. But even without LeBron the Knicks are more or less a team set for the long term.

    Cute post. All sarcasm and no substance - I like it.

    Like I posted earlier (which you failed to acknowledge) Outlaw adds nothing to this team that we don't already have. I don't care that he's the 3rd leading scorer. 12 PPG doesn't warrant us trading for a player we don't need.

    Don't know how this is particularly relevant. We don't really need Outlaw or Blake and they likely won't be here past 2010.
