NY don't have anything that could come close to what Parker gives the Spurs.

In an effort to garner interest in paying for their Rumor Central, ESPN has posted a teaser about Parker possibly being traded to the Knicks with his expiring contract next year.
I love how every news outlet jumps on a story (Parker will be traded) that doesn't have any merit and is based on general assumptions.![]()
When does the NFL season start?
NY don't have anything that could come close to what Parker gives the Spurs.
Parker for a sign and trade of david lee would be nice....but realgm.com already has parker going to LA clippers for Chris Kamen.
I dont know how spurs could fill the gap if they were to trade parker. The only way I would pull the trigger would be Chris Paul(and thats not happening)
Parker trade will not happen unless we are getting a lottery pick and a young role player. Realistically Parker is not getting traded. He is just too hard to replace.
This article actually comes from the NY Daily News...
If San Antonio guard Tony Parker becomes available, New York Knicks could be willing trade partner

Knicks best offer would be Curry Gallinari and Chandler.
Which is not enough. IMO
I doubt Spurs would want to take on 10+ million from David Lee when they have Splitter coming over for less than half that. Minutes will already be scarce.
And New York doesn't have a 1st round pick til 2013.
You can forgetta bout it.
Gallinari is the only knick i'm interested in.
I really hate those rumors!!!The offseason just start...
I wouldn't mind Parker leaving if it got the Spurs Rudy Gay.
If he becomes available. I dont know why everyone is caught up in this. The media, ok I get it, but why are you paying attention to these BS stories. He isnt going anywhere, at least, not now. He is the best player, they wont get rid of him like that.
Spurs would be stupid not to see whats out there.
The only player I'd want for Parker is Deron Williams.
Parker es not going nowheres man...err....that is...he will be returning for another season, chaps. Trading a 28 yr old speed demon with championship moxy and a hot wife would be plain estupid.
If I don't want David Lee's contract, I sure as don't want Eddy Curry's.

With a disappointing playoff season in the recent past, it's only natural for speculation to begin regarding how the Spurs might be altered this offseason. Teams that have elite talent but no apparent shot at a le rarely sit still.
And while Spurs general manager R.C. Buford insists he wants point guard Tony Parker to be part of the club's future and he won't trade him, others aren't so sure. Bottom line: If Buford's stance changes, the GM won't have any trouble finding a team that wants the point guard. And already there are hints at suitors.
A source tells the New York Daily News that Gregg Popovich is so high on George Hill that Parker could be traded and that New York would be a good spot for Parker, who has a slashing style that would fit well in Mike D'Antoni's offensive system.
"Pop loves George and I could see a scenario where he would trade Tony," said a Spurs source. "Tony will be looking for a max deal and New York may pay him."
Parker's contract expires at the end of next season and he could come to New York through a trade or free agency if the Knicks don't spend all their cap room this summer.
Not something to bank on, but the fact that there's a lot more chatter on Parker's future outside of San Antonio is indicative of a situation most feel is pretty unsettled.
Thanks for posting the Insider article..

At least, not yet. In the future maybe yes, but not now, come on.

The emergence of point guard George Hill this season and in the playoffs for the San Antonio Spurs could not have come at a better time for the Knicks.
With Donnie Walsh in the market for a point guard, there are reports that San Antonio would consider trading Tony Parker, who lost his starting job to Hill and has told close friends he and his actress wife, Eva Longoria, would love to relocate to New York.
"Pop loves George and I could see a scenario where he would trade Tony," said a Spurs source, referring to San Antonio coach Gregg Popovich. "Tony will be looking for a max deal and New York may pay him."
Parker, who turns 28 this week, is under contract through next season and there are several factors that could prevent a trade from happening. With the Knicks having traded away their first-round picks for the next two years, they don't have many assets to trade unless they are willing to part with Danilo Gallinari or Wilson Chandler, the latter of whom is recovering from offseason ankle surgery for the second time in two years. Of course, if the Knicks are willing to take on Spurs forward Richard Jefferson's salary, they would increase their chances of acquiring Parker.
Another scenario is the Knicks recruiting a third team to complete a deal. The Spurs, who were just swept by the Suns in the second round, want to get more athletic and are said to be interested in restricted free agent forward Rudy Gay.
