Now that they lost Brand just trade for the Knicks Zach Randolph?
They might come out a better team cause of it!
The Knicks would love to rid themselves of Zach and might even include their best asset to do it! David Lee!
The Clippers can offer Tim Thomas (who played real well with D"Antoni ) and Mobley and a first round pick
for Zach , Lee & maybe Balkman or Marty Collins!
This will be exactly what both teams need! In Zach the Clippers will offset the loss of Brand right away and getting
Lee will offset the risk of Zachs off court issues!( This is L.A not the Bible belt) Lee will bring energy and 10 rebounds a game off the bench!
Collins or Balkman are added plusses in many ways! By trading Mobley and Thomas the Clippers as far as cap will still have
plenty of money left to do whatever they want!
The Knicks get Thomas who thrived under D'Antoni and would love to redeem himself of his first trip to NY ( totally different circumstances this time) and Mobley's 9
mil off the books before 2010! The first rounder makes the trade for the Knicks cause of prior trades might not have a pick either this year or 2010!
Anyone else think this is a smart move?
Clippers have a choice to target names like Josh Smith, Shawn Marion & Emeka Okafor... that's why it's not likely they'll be interested in taking on Zach.

Josh Smith is going to re-sign more than likely. Okafor is a long shot, and with Marion you would be on the hook for more years if you extended him. Plus, what do the Clippers have to trade in return?
what happens if these moves fall through? Zach can be had for a mere pittance and he only has a couple of years left on his deal.
dude, there is nothing that will make me happier than to see Zach traded for a shorter term contract (other than maybe seeing Marbury wearing a different uniform next season)
Tms y so much hate for Marbs!!!
