Theyve got Mike Sweetney, Channing Frye, and Jerome James.As New York really need a center
They have enough centers.
IMO the Knicks are out of the running.
well, i believe the best chances we have of trading Nesterovic is by sending him to New York. They really don't care about money, you can realize about that with the fact they might not even release Houston.
Anyway, i was thinking Nesterovic should be traded for Jerome Williams who has 2 less years and a 3rd as team option. Besides in that deal maybe we could workout something for Rose. New York is considering him as one of the players to use the amnesty rule. Well, maybe we could agree a contract to have Rose back and New York has to release him in order to do the other deal.
As New York really need a center they might do that.

TPark, you have made the first mistake of NBA offseason - never underestimate the stupidity of Isiah Thomas
Sweetney is a PF, he is 6-8, lol and Nesterovic did much more so far in his career than James.
Sweetney is not 6 8 hes liike 6 10 400 pounds, dudes a beast (not really 400 but dude is chunked)
And Jerome James and Rasho Nesterovic are pretty much the same kind of players.
Nesterovic being much better on the defensive end though.
Have you ever seen either player play?And Jerome James and Rasho Nesterovic are pretty much the same kind of players.
frye is not a nba center
Why do we want Rose back?
Exactly. If Pop had to hold his nose to play him last year, why'd he do it now?Why do we want Rose back?
The best case scenario is that Rasho finds the offensive touch he had in Minnesota. That's really all that's needed.
Why would we not want any good player for well below market value?
Sweetney is listed at 6'8 and a supposedly actually a little shorter. You are right that he's chunky though.
In that case Rasho should run some offense like TWOLVES used to do, or POP should realize the way to improve Rasho confidence
but the worse thing about Nesterovic is not his playing level but his contract. 4 years starting at 6,720,000. There is not even one millon of difference with MANU.
Ive said, there are not enough plays run for Nesterovic, and wish they would run more pick and rolls with him at the FT line, and side lines.
About Malik Rose, in the case i proposed he would come for the minimum.
If he could come to the spurs back i am sure Popovich would like to have him.
I think the reason why they traded him is pretty obvious. By that time he had a 5 years deal with something like 5.5 in that year.
rasho gettin paid 6.5mill a year to warm the bench?? damn thats alot of money i can do that for free
First of all they signed James for a big contract, so they are going to use him. Frye is going to get minutes at C because they are stacked at PF and they feel he can contribute this year. So at this point they are two deep at C. They are not going to takes rasho's contract on. Even without Williams and Rose(if they would cut him) their frontcourt is loaded.
James, Frye
Sweetney, Taylor, Lee
Tim Thomas also plays PF and NY is looking at Diop who would be a much cheaper option as a backup C. So it is not happening.
I'm confused.This is the Rasho Nesterovic best case scenario thread right?
Where is the part about forgetting all this trade nonsense and letting me keep my very nice Center?
I'm sure that part is in the post somewhere. Silly me, I must have missed it.

I do agree but the limitation is that TD is SA first option, second TP, later Manu so Rasho could be 4th since he were on court, or leading a second unit; sometimes I got lost in POP's schemes but I am not sure SA will increase Rasho's runs.
well, it would be fine to keep Rasho if he accepts a pay cut but he wont, lol.
what do you mean by pay cut? In basketball you cannot rework contracts to offer pay cuts. It is not like football.
actually i think you can. For example KG did some with his huge contract. And you can also improve the salaries.
