    Knicks have to clear a roster spot to make room for Noah next week. They've made Kuzminskas available. I have a thing for most euros but don't really care for him. I would be interested in O'quinn though, even with Davis' play. Those two could probably play together anyway. Then there's always Courtney Lee.

    Synergy: Greg Monroe finished 10th in the NBA in post up scoring and ranked as the league's 5th most efficient roll man last season.

    Would be an ideal backup for Nurk. Could also use him like Aldridge, just with the second unit. Good passer as well.

    How about this

    Harkless and Leonard for Greg Monroe and Derrick Jones. Maybe Olshey even squeezes a second out of it.

    We get a backup center on an expiring deal. If he leaves in the summer it's a nice salary dump. In the meantime it gives us a low post scorer for the second unit, with Ed moving to PF where he's a better fit.

    Makes sense on the court and in the books.

    The second unit is so bad it reminds me of the hilarious Bucs coach years ago. When asked what he thought of his teams execution, John McKay said he was in favor if it.
