Hughes
I just saw on ESPN.com that there was talk about Malik and Jeffries! going to Chicago for Larry Hughes but that the Bulls called it off because it would put them over the luxury tax next year by $600K. If that’s all it is, hopefully we’ll take back $780K in salaries like Lindsay Hunter or Aaron Gray.

“The Washington Wizards still have interest in bringing back New York Knicks forward Jared Jeffries, an Eastern Conference official said. Jeffries played for the Wizards his first four seasons in the league.”
please, jebus. i don’t ask for much.

Stein says Hughes AND Wilcox
For James, Thomas, Roberson, and Malik.
I can live with that, though I thoroughly dislike Larry Hughes and his terrible shot selection.

Shit, just posted a fanpost about this.
don’t worry about commenting on it, I just wanted to get it up there in case nobody else was paying attention. Good job staying on top of shit, guys. Don’t really know what to make of this trade. Makes us an even smaller team than we already were.

can't wait for the blood fights between Wilcox and Jeffires...
as seen here in the 2002 NCAA Championship game:

and here is some bullshit regular season game between two bad teams:

Ewing with the step...YES! and the foul!

Looks like the Hughes one is just about official
Unless he fails a physical or something
I like that we get a serviceable player for this year, and one more roster spot to maybe use on a d-league guy.
I’d like to start the “Get Boom-Tho on the Knicks” Movement right now. I want to buy a Rod Benson New York Knicks jersey!

I'd take that, too
It’d make the last 30+ games that much more fun for us

Stein says it's official
Marc Stein: Hopefully you’ve seen all the clarifications on New York’s moves.
The Knicks have swung two deals.
No. 1: Tim Thomas, Jerome James and Anthony Roberson to Chicago for Larry Hughes.
No. 2: Malik Rose and cash to Oklahoma City for Chris Wilcox.
I am in favor of these. 2010 plan still in place, more roster spots open, and Lee and Robinson are both still Knicks.

It shouldn't
If anything, it’ll lower Duhon’s, but that’s a good thing (he’s playing too many minutes right now)

Q's minutes will come down, too
That’s also okay.
But who knows? Hughes could also just as easily be sent to Marbury-land.

2010
That’s what makes it so weird. Most of the contracts sent Chicago’s way also expire in 2010.

It was about the other players, too
Getting Jerome and Roberson out of there, and also Hughes fits this year’s offense better than Tim Thomas

Right
I just don’t understand what Chicago gets out of this other than making Hughes happy by fulfilling his demand for a trade.

Uh-oh
So says Chad Ford:
Could the Knicks make three deals today? Sources say the Kings have offered Kenny Thomas for Nate Robinson and Jared Jeffries. If the Knicks could move Jeffries, it would clear another $6.8 million in the summer of 2010. The Knicks would have to give up the talented Robinson and eat Thomas’ $8.7 million salary next year … but it’s probably worth it to the Knicks. Especially now that they’ve shored up their offense with the Larry Hughes and Chris Wilcox deals.

Whew!
Updated Ford:
UPDATE (2:36 p.m. ET): Just got word that the Knicks turned down the Kings again. Sounds like they’re not as motivated to move Jared Jeffries as so many of us thought.

Agreed
I don’t hate Jeffries that much that I’d want to give up Nate to get rid of him.
Jeffries tries hard, at least, and his defense on PGs has been valuable this year.

agreed.
not worth the money he gets. but he is not so detrimental to the team that we need to unload one of our top guys in a package to get someone who sucks.
by stingy d on Feb 19, 2009 2:43 PM EST up reply actions 0 recs
yeah.
we could just bench him. and when i say could, i mean should. permanently.
