I think it's important to first establish what the short term goal is. Do we try to make the playoffs? Or, do we tank and get a lottery pick.
If i had to choose one, i'd pick JO over randolph. I don't believe JO is a max player but he's a good player to have on a good team. i think a team of kidd, RJ and JO would be pretty decent....if kidd was staying and JO was playing. I am also not completely sold on where Carter will be by the end of his contract. of course the same can be said about JO. Watching a few knicks games too, no way I want randolph on the team. He is a blackhole and plays no defense. Not only that, being able to see him often now, i'm surprised at how little back to the basket he plays. Everything is a jumpshot.

And hope that Carter goes off for the rest of the season, so we could trade him for something better than Jermaine.
I think Thorn will just wait to trade Carter in the off-season. His stats will be inflated due to more touches and maybe GM's will be looking for a veteran SG.

thorn will not trade VC to the knicks, if VC is traded it will be for JO i like it if we trade VC for JO but only if we do the Miller trade as well
