    Van Horn for Tim Thomas?

    <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">LOS ANGELES - Isiah Thomas acknowledged that he is interested in signing Vin Baker, but the Knicks president refused to confirm that he had spoken to the Bucks about a deal that would send Keith Van Horn to Milwaukee for Tim Thomas.
    "That's a rumor and at this time of year you hear a lot of them," Thomas said yesterday.

    In order to make a Van Horn-Thomas swap work within the salary cap, other players would have to be added or the Knicks and Bucks would have to include a third team. Thomas and Van Horn were traded once before, on Draft night in 1997.</div>

    We do need a scoring PF/C I guess we could replace Van Horn with Anderson or Hardaway.

    He is? Did he change his position this year because when I played NBA Live 2003, he was a PF for the bucks.

    If the rumors are true, I think that there is no way in hell that the Knicks DON'T make the playoffs. They're all ready to even make a run for the east, in my opinion.

    Isiah did it again. Milwaukee gets equal value, Atlanta gets two stiffs. When I heard NY did a deal involving Atlanta I expected to hear Rasheed's name involved, good deal for the Knicks nonetheless.

    When I saw Thomas had been traded I was quite happy because it would mean more time for Mason in Milwaukee. This may not be the case.

    Not sure if the Bucks really get better here, and with the chemistry they've shown this season it's weird that they would mess with that.

    Well, they only traded Nazr Mohammed...so basically they traded one mediocre player for 2 other mediocre players...

    Now the Bucks have Van Horn, Mason and Kukoc. Doesn't make a whole lot of sense considering KVH's contract and the fact that two out of those three don't play a lick of defense. This could be a prelude to another Milwaukee deal, otherwise it was quite an odd move on their part.

    Wow Isaiah did it again...getting Tim Thomas/Nazr Mohommad for KVH and Doleac?? The man is workin wonders...Nazr will be a nice backup at the 4/5 spot, and Thomas will be deadly in the open court with Marbury...

    I thought Sheed was going to be named in there as well, but still a nice pull by Isiah. Tim Thomas makes a better fit for this Knicks team, he runs the floor and shoots the ball well. In good minutes, Nazr Mohammed is a solid back up Center for NY.

    For the Bucks, looks like they get Keith Van Horn. Gives them a versitle player, and will also help them on the boards. I like this trade for both the Knicks and the Bucks.
