    <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">After the Crawford talks look to be on hold, Knick president Isiah Thomas has spoken on the phone with Erick Dampier and is currently Oakland-bound for a recruiting visit.

    With the Heat finally landing Shaquille O'Neal yesterday, Thomas would love to add the 7-foot-1 Dampier, a center he tried to acquire at last February's trading deadline.

    He's also chasing Maverick power forward Antoine Walker, who Dallas owner Mark Cuban has shopped after leaving unprotected in the expansion draft. </div>

    Me either. Thomas might be a little more of a banger than Walker,
    but is he really a center? I think the Mavs need to look into better options.

    Thomas rarely ever bangs-Walker bangs occasionally. No he isn't a cneter. If I were Dallas i'd do the Philadelphia trade, seems to be the best option.

    Walker throws up bricks. What was his percentage at three point this year? .130 or somthing. He is a decent rebounder though. he just has a bad shot selection I had him on my fantasy roster last year, I traded hiim for Bibby at the all star break and won my ROTO league. hehe
