Knicks · SAS suggests the following trade with Orlando (page 1)

TLover @ 5/10/2012 11:11 PM
Saw this somewhere where Steven A. Smith suggested a trade between the Knicks & Orlando.

Chandler, Amare & Lin for Dwight Howard & Jameer Nelson

If Orlando throws in Ryan Anderson & Dwight is healthy, I make that trade.

Nelson has a year left on his contract; as does Chris Paul.

Potential Knick line-up:

Pg: Paul
Sg: Shumpert
Sf: Melo
Pf: Anderson
C: Howard

Did u say stephen a. Smith? Next...
mrKnickShot @ 5/10/2012 11:16 PM
And base on R. Andersons Win Shares, he is a Superstar!!

Deal is a no brainer. I dont think we can sign and trade Lin though if its for more than the MLE.
mrKnickShot @ 5/10/2012 11:18 PM
Why would we sign him for more than the MLE?

So he does us a favor. He has to agree to to the sign and trade.

mrKnickShot @ 5/10/2012 11:25 PM
The knicks have the right to match any offer - its not unrestricted. No favor needed.
AnubisADL @ 5/10/2012 11:27 PM
If he signs with some random team we cant trade him until next season at the earliest.
mrKnickShot @ 5/10/2012 11:30 PM
you are saying that if we are forced to match then we can't trade him?

Yes that is what I am saying. Plenty of teams have the MLE. We have to entice him with guaranteed dollars.

Knicks can't sign Lin to more then the MLE and he has to sign an offer sheet to have a say in the matter of where he is traded.

If the team matches an offer sheet and retains their free agent, then for one year they cannot trade him without his consent, and cannot trade him at all to the team that signed him to an offer sheet. They also can't trade the player in a sign-and-trade transaction (see question number 88).

So if he signs an offer sheet he has a say?

SASquatch needs to STFU.

Now everybody and their mother wants to trade Lin. NY fans get away too much credit for being smart.

This I agree 100% with.

and Tyson Chandler! For a guy who can't be on the floor in the end of a playoff game cos he shoots 40% from the line

At least when he is on the floor he scores more than 1 point.

I don't want to trade Lin but everybody is expendable in the right deal.

If Lin could land us Dwight, nice to know you don't let the door hit you on the way out.

People have very short memory. They give up on others quickly. I wonder if they give up on their children this easily as well.

People murder their own children in New York. Anything is possible
