    <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">In other news, the Memphis Grizzlies signed Brian Cardinal, a PF, to the full mid-level exception. This has raised eyebrow's around the league and has led many to believe if Isiah Thomas were to offer Grizzlies PF Stromile Swift, an athletic shotblocker who can play either PF or C, Memphis GM Jerry West would not match. It will be interesting to see if the Knicks will be allowed to spend any more money, and if they do, where they spend it.

    Expect Swift, Marcus Fizer, Chris Mihm, and former Knick Mike Doleac to all get looked at to add depth to the Knick frontcourt. If Isiah could turn Harrington, Mutumbo, Shandon Anderson, Norris, and Trybanski into Jamal Crawford, Jerome Williams, Eddie Robinson, Chris Jeffries, Trevor Ariza, and Andre Barret in one offseason, it will have to be considered wildly successful.</div>

    Swift would be a nice player to get IMO. Bringing back Doleac would be good as well.

    If they pull-off the sign&trade with Chicago for JC. I say go after Swift hard. This kid is ready to bust-out. Forget Rasweed. He's going back to Detroit. Double "S" can give you double a night.He's a leaper who loves to fly. Then use Kurt Thomas for trade bait, If he's not part of the deal with Chicago.

    Just expect Jerry West to match any offer. I don't know if he'll do it by a sign-and-trade or clearing cap, but he looks like he's set on keeping Swift for another year.

    How come the Knicks think they can get every single FA on the market, I'm just wondering, their's a rumour about some plan for them to get everyone, and then the three way trade where they get Walker and Dampier or something, Toronto losses Carter, and all they give up is Shandon ANdreson [​IMG]

    Actually all they give up is Kurt Thomas. What do you expect? That's the Media, especially in big markets like New york.

    If we have to let Swift go, I'd love to see him as a Knick ... But for who? The Grizz have to get something for Stro but Thomas may be to omuch for you guys to give up, so maybe Mutombo and a #1? Mutombo sucks guys come on LOL Houston makes WAY too much money and no one can touch Steph ... But what about a deal of ...

    Jason Williams
    Bonzi Wells
    Stromile Swift
