Forward Darko Milicic wouldn't be opposed to a trade from Memphis to New York, especially with Mike D'Antoni's background with European players, according to Newsday.

"If a trade were to happen to New York, Darko would be very excited to play with Coach D'Antoni," agent Marc Cornstein told Newsday on Friday. "He's an outstanding coach and has a great understanding of the European player. I also have great appreciation to Memphis and the opportunity they've given him as well. So I look at it as a win-win either way."

A proposed deal would send Darko and Marco Jaric to the Knicks for Zach Randolph, but the talks have reportedly been halted as New York's Donnie Walsh considers the deal.
