12. "he averaged 16 points per game the previous year..." In response to In response to 9 Thu Jan-03-13 07:42 PM by Warren Coolidge
and only 5 rebounds... You got a problem if your 7 foot center who is considered an inside player (as opposed to a premiter player) averages only 5 rebounds a game...
the unprotected 1st round pick the Knicks traded away turned into the 2nd overall pick ..LaMarcus Aldridge....
it was a horrible horrible trade for the knicks and is a case study as to why it's never good to trade away draft picks.
nothing is worse than having a horrible season and not being able to be in the lotto because of a horrible trade....that kills an orginizations overall confidence for the future.
the other thing about the trade was it had the knicks and bulls swap 1st round picks in 2007.... again the pick the knicks traded away turned into Jokim Noah...
only an absolute crazy person could look at LaMarcus and Joakim not being Knicks.....and Eddy Curry's 5 year stint with the Knicks and say any thing positive about that trade..
