This trade is retarted. Only a homer Knick fan could believe it could trade it's absolute trash for an all star.

Touchéthats what they t old us when they gave us jack butler
Yeah, they could sign a big time free agent like Parker.................Wait a minute.
Why would the Spurs want to spend an extra 10-12 million dollars a year on another front-court player, when Splitter is pretty much coming over here for less than half that price?
With Splitter the front-court is pretty much set with Duncan/Splitter/McDyess and Blair. The value of his 10-12 million dollar contract on the Spurs would be one of the worst with the minutes available in the front-court.
Now if we were talking about Bosh or an elite big man, where the drop-off in talent is more significant then I'd think it would be worth it.
But IMO David Lee is not an elite big man and I don't think the drop-off in talent between Splitter and Lee is significant enough to warrant a 10-12 million salary addition to the already set front-court(if Splitter comes over) .
Don't get me wrong Lee had a great year last year, but IMO Lee's numbers were inflated with the system he was in. Those numbers and his productivity wouldn't be anywhere near the same in the Spurs system.
IMO It's pretty dumb basketball economics to make a move for Lee with Splitter coming over.
Why would the clippers do this? Then again it is the Clippers
Everybody in NY has "sources", especially Knicks fans..I mean, it might happen, but I highly doubt it, unless the Spurs have another deal in place..this would be a horrible deal, especially if Wilson Chandler wasn't involved for the Spurs..
Douglas is alright, but just like other Knicks prospects, he gets too much hype and becomes overrated..
Acquiring Curry wouldn't make any sense..he's an expiring like Parker, he has a trade kicker, and he's absolutely useless on the court..
The Spurs have already gone the route of swiping a young, lazy, underachieving center from the Knicks (Jackie Butler a few years ago). Do you really think they're stupid enough to make the same mistake again?
we doont need NY involve
clippers could give us a good deal + 8th pick for tony + filler + eva
Eddy Curry is not useless on the court. When the Spurs face the Lakers with Eddy Curry, he can lay waste on Andrew Bynum's knees and Pau Gasol's hamstring with his ridiculous weight.
I wouldnt trade a washing machine for curry
Stephen A. Smith: I would trade Eddy Curry for a bag of cheez doodles. That would be a bargain. I have my cheez doddles right here. I eat them when I am stressed.
The reality is that we are not trading down. If we pick 20th then all is right in the Spurs universe. It shows they'll sign Tiago. It shows they still believe in their core. And it show that whoever they pick at 20 is worth the risk of a guaranteed contract.
What. The. .
ty trade idea. No way the Spurs or Clippers FO decide to do this.
I would caution against using logic when trying to predict what the Clippers FO will do.
This trade sucks.
Spurs FO can't possibly be this dumb.
Sadly, this is the kind of trade this FO MIGHT do.
I hope not, but it runs with their past. I don't understand the Eddy Curry love, he's a tradeable asset, so freaking what?!
I never thought I'd hear a Parker rumor worse than the ty Indiana deal (Tony Parker for ing Ed Davis?).
The thought of Eddy Curry eating tacos in San Antonio is really disgusting... please make it stop!
The bright side is we don't have to wait long for any part of this rumor to be confirmed or debunked.
This trade doesn't seem very good, but then again, we pretty much traded Scola for Jackie Butler didn't we? Anything can happen.
That's the big thing here. Fans may hate Curry and they have every reason to. But there's no telling what the front office thinks. The only thing that makes this trade really suspect is the Clippers only getting Chandler.
Looks like that one Knicks fan was full of . Like...overflowing.

Please search for tweets by @RyanTrapasso (myself) and @JonKnicksFan from earlier today. It is very likely (but not 100% of course) that this person is just taking this and making it their own. It was a COMPLETE HYPOTHETICAL.
Thanks,
Ryan

My mistake; it was from yesterday:
JonKnicksFan: @RyanTrapasso For instance, it’d have to be like, Curry, 8 and Douglas to the Spurs, Wil to the Clippers, Parker to the Knicks.

Just don’t want y’all getting excited for nothing. Could be true but doubting it.
