    Re: Knicks Management Blows It Again - Reject deal for Randolph to Clippers

    How many players in the history of the NBA have had a negative value like Randolph has right now?
    As Shaquille O'Neal left the Suns practice court, he yelled out, "Alvin's the coach. We must be the Clippers. And I must be Olowokandi. Nooooo!"

      The Knicks need to rid of salary. That should be their main goal at the moment. Because the guys soaking up the cap aren't "pieces".
      I meant their players. They aren't tradable for any sort of value and I don't think Randolph's contract really hurts the Knicks in the future.

        Understood, but you're saying that all these contracts are coming off the books for 2010.

        Fine, cool beanies.

        So LeBron going to come to a team with nobody good on it?

          ^^See this is the big misconception Knicks fans are being sucked into believing.

          The following players will have player options in 2009:
          Eddy Curry $10M
          Quentin Richardson $9M
          Jamal Crawford $9M
          Jerome James $7M

          And in 2010, guess what, more player options:
          Eddy Curry (again) $11M
          Jared Jeffries $7M

          Only Richardson and James will come off the books in 2010. All the while, Zach Randolph has a guaranteed $17M in 2010.

              I know those guys don't come off the books anytime soon. That's why I said future. Come on, I choose my words very carefully.

              But, Randolph's lone contract isn't gonna hurt the team. And I personally think that if Randolph was there along with LeBron then that would be a better team.

              Anyway, the hugest misconception in NY is believing that LeBron is coming to the Knicks. That isn't going to happen. You can save my post and laminate it too.

                I think DiAntoni is going to make this team competitive, just a hunch. They definately have talent on the offensive end.

                Lee
                Jeffries
                Richardson
                Crawford
                Robinson

                That's a lineup Knicks fans should get used to this next fall.

                  I'd trade him to the Clips for a second round pick and some curly fries, no questions asked.
                  Can't argue with some curly fries
