    What about Chris Wilcox for Kurt Thomas...Layden passed up on him in the Draft a few years ago...He should have taken him....I think he would be a good fit for NY...he would bring excitment, atheleticsim, and DEFENSE!!! I like Kurt Thomas a lot tho but if Zeke is gonna trade him it better be for sum1 like Wilcox!

    Yes, but Thomas has shown that he could be a great defensive player while playing 4 or 5. Wilcox should be good in the future, but in the same register, I would advocate for Stromile Swift.

    The Clippers and Grizz probably wouldn't want to do just a one-for-one because both Wilcox and Swift have more potential than Thomas.

    The best thing for Zeke to do now is to trade Thomas to a team with championship hopes and are willing to give up a player with a big contract or is locker room cancer-Rasheed Wallace, Antonio Davis etc.

    Trading for another power forward would be a bad move for the knicks because Mike Sweetney would be coming off the bench for them and would get less minutes to play and to develop. Sweetney could be the future for this team with the right tools( him at starting PF and a good PG and SF to work with him)
