Kings/Knicks

[Smills91]

Kings deal:
Mike Bibby
Kenny Thomas
Justin Williams

Knicks deal:
Stephon Marbury
David Lee


Knicks ditch out on Marbury contract and add a better player at the position in the process. Justin Williams' addition takes away some of the blow from paying the David Lee price.

Kings get the piece they want in Lee who can shore up a lot of rebounding woes that faces the franchise. Marbury looks headed for the Knife, so he becomes an expiring contract for next season.

Ha - dueling Knicks trades. I like this for the Kings, but I don't know that the Knicks would both take on Kenny's deal and give up Lee for just Bibby. Seems like it would be one or the other even if Marbury has given up.

What's the deal w/ just trading Artest for Lee and a small filler, why can't we do that? Thomas is probably stupid enough.

We can drool about getting David Lee between now and 2046 and it won't make a bit of difference. As long as Isaiah Thomas is in NY, Lee is not going to leave.

lol, then my deal has a LOT of merit.

What's the over/under on Thomas getting canned by the trade deadline?

David Lee is way overrated. No thanks.
