According to television and print media reports, New York Knicks GM/Coach Isiah Thomas has turned down trades that could have brought the Knicks Ron Artest or Larry Hughes among others the New York Post said.
Thomas turned down a chance at Ron Artest, because he didn't want to give up Nate Robinson and Renaldo Balkman in a package.
Naturally, the Knicks hope Artest will opt out after the season and sign with the Knicks for the maximum five-year, $30 million mid-level contract. It also was reported the Cleveland Cavaliers were interested in Jamal Crawford, and the Knicks could have snared Larry Hughes in a package.
