	I know this is weird coming from a knick fan but please Isiah, if you are still around, trade Jamaal Crawford to a contending team in the offseason. He is a very talented player who can score pass and on a good team may even try and play defense imagine what he good do on a team like Utah who needs a better scorer at that position. He could play on any type of team send him to Houston and hell be a great third option just give him a chence to play for a winner please

	The three biggest payroll hogs for the Knicks are: Crawford (9.3M/'09, 10M/'10), Zach (16M/'09, 17.3M/'10) and Eddie (10.5M/'06, 11.3M/'10). After 2010, the Knicks have no major contracts to deal with. Lebron is under contract through 2010. Speaking as a Knicks fan, why not just Crawford's deal run out, and then try and make a run at James? The Knicks would'nt get anything for Jamal straight up - they'd just be taking back salary. It would have to be a package deal, including Lee, most likely - and that wouldn't be very smart given the decision to rebuild.

	Lebron is definitely intrigued by the possibility of playing in New York. I like the idea of having all these contracts out of the picture by 2010 and have nothing but young guys who could be valuable trading chips. Of course a draft pick or two would be in order as well. Maybe something like 3 draft picks and 3 players for Lebron. Sound reasonable. Lebron will not win anything in Cleveland any time soon with the players on that team. Not as long as the Big 3 are in Boston, not as long as Detroit keeps that nucleus together, and not if Pat Riley has anything to say about it either. Knicks, do you have a link to your avatar btw? This place won't let me save it.

	Listen to yourself. Three major contracts (Curry, Crawford, Randolph) come off the books in 2010 and LeBron is a free agent after the 2010 season. Why in the world would you trade picks & players for him before then? Think before you write.

	Hmm yeah that wouldn't make too much sense. Perhaps if he wanted out sooner rather than later. I'm sure New York would be willing to comply with that demand.

	go ahead and free Jamal Crawford because as great as you seem to think he is i'm not so convinced..he plays no defense has horrible shot selection and he rarely goes and gets a board even being a big guard...don't get me wrong jamal is talented but you make him sound like a hall of famer or an allstar and he is neither,the Knicks need help and hopefully walsh blows the whole thing up...

	I agree. You make it appear as though he is one of the top players in the league, but he takes terrible shots when it matters most, throwing up 3-pointers and fadeaways after crossing over. Yes, he can score, but we need defense. Also, he is a 2nd scoring option and he cannot be relied upon as a first option to lead a team to a title b/c he is way too streaky a shooter. We need someone more consistent who could play D and the entire team needs to be rebuilt from scratch with the exception of Lee and Nate.
