That's a phenomenal deal. A young, solid defensive center, at 7 feet and with a solid jumper. He makes too much sense. I guess Jordan Hill is ruled out if this is true and Eddy's as good as gone. Darko, Wilson, Gallo and the 8th pick all under 25 and with upside...our young core gets much stronger. Good deal for both teams.

I love Darko (no homo). I can't wait to hear him flipping out on the court.

Seriously though, a solid pickup. Put him through the D'antoni overachieving machine and he turns into a stud.

I like this deal if it goes down for the simple fact that it lessens the likelihood that we reach on a bigman by picking the mediocre Jordan Hill at #8

All we need to do is draft a white SG and we could possibly roll out an All-white team: Rubio, Gallinari, Lee, Milicic

It's a great deal for the Knicks. There's nothing negative you can say about this.

Me likey..............

Q wasn't contributing anything except expiring and Darko while being a monumental bust as a #2 pick is at least still young enough to be worth having a look at for a year. He provides something the Knicks actually need. A defending, fairly skilled, decent BBIQ player in a true center sized package.

QBRICK is just horrible, and if this deal goes through then Walsh just looks like a genius.
24 year old who was number 2 year old as a one year rental, where maybe we can Rejuvenate his career. Seriously, if Darko posts up the numbers everyone expected him too when he was taken number 2 overall we would have a tremendous core of Gallo Chandler Darko and this years #8.
Now if Walsh buys their other first rounder and he buys minnys other first rounder you know he is going to be packing the three picks and maybe mobley's contract to OKC for that 3rd overall and snag Rubio, even though i hate him.
Rubio
Chandler
Gallo
Lee
Milicic/Eddy

Ill take it for this year.. Put LBJ in their and convert Gallo into a PF and we got a team for the future.

at the replies

Milicic just went from being a monumental bust to being a promising young center.

Walsh has the Midas touch.

This guy let me down big time by doing NOTHING in Memphis all year.

I'd love for this trade to go down. Even if he sucks he'll still contribute more than Qbitch.

Darko would bring some attitude back to NY...

His numbers don't stand out, but he produced in the minutes he got. He averaged roughly 11 ppg 10 rpg and 2 bpg per 36 minutes. Not bad at all. The main thing is that when he's on the floor, he's not a liability on defense. That alone is better than QRich taking minutes away from Gallo and Chandler with his awful shooting.
