lush23 Posted December 7, 2005 Report Share Posted December 7, 2005 The more I think about such a trade the more sense it makes. The Knicks are desperate for a quality small forward and we could use another ball handler/scorer. We could even play Crawford, Salim & J.J. together at times because J.J. is 6'7" 220 and can easily play SF. I love Al but we can't let him walk at the end of the year without compensation. Crawford is signed for 5 more years. J. Crawford J. Johnson Z. Puchilla J. Smith J. Childress Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BornandDieHawks Posted December 7, 2005 Report Share Posted December 7, 2005 Crawford does not make the prople around im any better becasue he is too busy looking for his own shoot. With the season Al is having he will be worth a lot more to a team trying to get over the hump for the playoffs. I think Denver is a team we will be dealing with before it is all say and done.

Premium Member Diesel Posted December 7, 2005 Premium Member Report Share Posted December 7, 2005 Give up the one player that's capable of playing in the post for a bigger version of Ty Lue? It's true that Crawford is a scorer... But he has been bounced to NY and forgotten about because that's all he does. I think it's a mistake to trade for Crawford.... UNLESS we get Frye too... I think NY may be interested in QRICH/Frye for Harrington/JC.. Or something like that. That's definitely interesting and something we should ponder.

Premium Member mrhonline Posted December 7, 2005 Premium Member Report Share Posted December 7, 2005 The Hawks traded for a versatile guard last summer, but theirs acutally can play some D. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lascar78 Posted December 7, 2005 Report Share Posted December 7, 2005 come on now, this is getting ridiculous. If there is one position that we have no need at, it is the swingman. JJ is our 2 for the next 5 years. We would only be weaker in the inside with this trade and wouldn't have helped ourselves at all. If we trade it HAS TO be for a big or a pg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admin chillzatl Posted December 7, 2005 Admin Report Share Posted December 7, 2005 I agree completely. Crawford is not a PG. He's JT with less IQ. I think NY is a team that we could deal with, simply because Isiah is the worst GM in the league and can be taken advantage of if you dangle a shiny carrot in his face. But I'm hestitant to do ANYTHING that will get NY back to teh playoffs before us and that deal might just do it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lush23 Posted December 9, 2005 Author Report Share Posted December 9, 2005 What about Crawford and David Lee for Harrington? They are not going to trade Frye. Lee has shown he can really rebound. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
