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.

You think the Cavs wish they could go back and hold on to Ricky Davis?

They seem to be searching for that second scorer now who can compliment Lebron.

Larry Hughes is a fluke.He makes the most luckiest shots I have ever seen. He gets all the calls to go his way.

thomas is using the "noone is gonna get traded" speech to rally the knicks into contention, possibly a championship.
