    You either have it or you don't and if CJ has it he'll be there.

    I believe CJ does have "it". I am not sure he will be given a chance to show all of it this season though.

    In a month? No, he won't. Next year? Perhaps.

    Yeah, I know it would take a lot more pieces for a trade like this to go through, but I am not very savvy at making trade ideas. :dunno:

    Nope - apparently you either have it or you don't. So, apparently, CJ doesn't have it. Cos if he did, then, well, he'd...have it?

    Chandler is a strong personality and Olshey would have his work cut out for him figuring out if he would fit in.

    But the idea that the Knicks would even entertain Claver, Wright, Leonard and Freeland is not reasonable. Three players who don't play (one who doesn't even dress) and a back up center averaging 3 pts and 4 rebounds for Chandler? The Knicks can do a lot better than that.

    Is it? Or are you just so in love with Wes Mathews that you can't let go?

    This is even more crazy talk.

    Let's just end the argument here:

    Wesley Matthews is having the best year of his career and you want to trade him in order to start a Rookie who just came off of his 2nd foot injury.... :crazy:

    This.

    I'm pretty sure BGD believes what he is saying, but sometimes I'm not so sure. He might just be a really well disguised troll.

    And does not move the ball as well, and is not even close to as good on defense.

    The only deal I do with the Knicks is this:
    Leonard, Wright, Robinson and Claver for Chandler. No getting JR Smith, Beno, or anyone else. Getting Chandler for these 4 gives us a solid 9 man rotation and we're good to go. Pick up a few free agents to round out the roster and let's get it on.

    harrison barnes, first rounder from GSW- POR
    chandler, dorell wright-GSW
    speight, o'neal, green- NYK

    this is a trade that all team win on. we get a player who potential is titantic, and we also get a first rounder. gsw get veteran player, and they add a player who can still play defense. new york get both veteran player and a player who has a star written all over him.

    this trade would make our bench even better, better defense, and better 3-point shooting. hope this trade happen.

    Why would New York REALLY do this, in a realistic world? Speights is nothing special, O'neal is done.
