RUMOR: Z to NY via FoxSpots.com

Summary: All these guys are talented with questions attached to them, but Isiah Thomas helped his odds by adding four players. Their roster is overloaded with players, so look for a sign-and-trade to Cleveland for Zydrunas Ilgauskas.

Maybe we can get Stephan Marberry (sp)? Then sign someone like REDD or Hueghs, or even Allen.

Our lineup would look like something this:

PG: Stephan Marberry/Eric Snow
SG: Redd/Hueghs/Allen-/Sasha Povlavic
SF: LeBron James/Luke Jackson
PF: Drew Gooden/ AV
C: ?

Ill slap you in the face if you ever suggest us getting Stephon Marbury again..

Either way, NY has nothing to offer the Cavs.

The only thing I could see us wanting is Thomas...Im not sure how Jamal Crawford would fit if he was an option.

But outside of that, maybe Sweetney, the Knicks roster pretty much sucks.

 

[NarlCavs]

I can't see any sign and trade with NY. The Knicks have nothing I would want and nothing to help the Cavs. The Cavs would just let Z go rather than make a bad sign and trade deal and be forced to take on bad contracts.

HELL NO

STEPH > CRAWFORD until the day they die............

jamal crawford is the absolute worse defensive guard in the league..J-mac is a superior defender when compared to JAMAL...

the next time i want something from the knicks, will be the first time....

That would be a funny conversation:

Z's agent: we want a sign and trade with the Knicks

Ferry: We don't want ANYBODY on the Knicks

Z's agent: well then you're going to lose Z for nothing.

Ferry: OK

Z's agent to Z: well we're going to have to take MLE from the Knicks and you'll be losing 5 million a year for the next 5 years.

(pause, no response from Z)

Z's agent to Ferry: we had a change of heart

this is the worst z rumors this board has ever had.

 

[RuanuLaw]

Hey, don't kill the messanger!

 

[Dungong]

just wait till the LeBron to New York rumors start up when the time comes, those will be worse

 

[CBBI]

Sweetney, Ariza, and the Knicks unprotected first round picks for the next 10 years.

And 10 million dollars.

if your're gonna ask one GM for that ? it might as well be "ZEKE"

 

[Glen Infante]

I don't anything to do with Stephon Marbury. He is one of the most selfish players in the league. Pare him up with LeBron and the chemistry will blow up.

Crawford is a chucker. He will shoot the ball all day long. The only benifit that comes from him is if he is feeling it, and that isn't every game. He is the most streakiest shooter on that roster.

The only player I would have considered from NY would have been Kurt Thomas, but now he is gone.

I wouldn't be so quick to deal with the Knicks in the 1st place. They want to steal our star player, why would our GM give them some Cavalier players to make the media make up more stories?

Bad idea, and I hope we don't even conversate with the Knicks this off season.

 

[King]

The only players I would be interested in from the Knicks are Tim Thomas, Ariza, Nate Robinson, and possibly Q. Definetly not Marbury or Crawford though. I cant see a team ever being succesful with Starbury ar their starting point. The knicks are one of the last teams I would want the Cavs to talk to as a trade partner for Z.

 

[Troy Wingate]

If Zydrunas wants to be a Knick, let him walk. We don't want none of their crap, except maybe Quentin Richardson.

 

[Coyote]

Just keep in mind that same Fox Sports article gave the Raptors an A-, the Celtics a B and the Mavericks - who had no picks and did nothing at all - a C. I guess just for breathing. I can't see us having anything to do with NY.

 

[LyXo]

This is silly. Just read the wording. "Look for a sign-and-trade with Z." That's like saying look for some boobs to pop out of a shirt. It's not gonna happen, but we'd sure be happy if it did.

But we can consider taking several of their picks this season. Nate Robinson looks like he could be a good force: shoots extremely well. If we could take Channing Frye that would also be good: nice athletic body. But we'd probably have to take on a big contract in order to do so.

Z + Ira Newble

for

Frye + Robinson + Penny/Thomas
