REALISTIC trade proposal, as well as a selfish plug.

you not only are satisfied with not having a draft pick in 2010, but your want to give away last years draft pick too? only to recieve two expiring contracts?

smackkk yourself lol.. no really. yea ray allen would help this year with scoring.. but is scoring a little bit more and making a first round exit in the playoffs and getting more cap room worth giving up j hill?

when we could get more cap room by taking a loss by trading starbucks for nothing in return?

Kings might say no cuz they seem to be overvaluing Martin, but they def would be interested in Hill as it looks like they’ve soured on Jason Thompson and Hawes.

Celts do that trade in a heartbeat. Martin and (surprisingly) Jefferies are exactly the kind of players they need.

Knicks get rid of Jefferies. I like Hill a lot and he shows a lot of promise, but he’s going to take a little bit of time to develop. No matter who we pursue in the off-season, they’re going to want to contend immediately, so we don’t have time to develop kids.

It ain’t easy finding trades where everyone gets what they want and it works under the cap. Props.

which means it won’t happen.

i’m not sure which team says no. it probably hinges on the value of jordan hill, actually. either the Knicks really like him and don’t do the deal, or the Kings aren’t enticed enough by a Hill + cap relief for Martin package.

but in terms of fantasy trades, this is like a 9.7 out of 10. really well done.

i think that the king’s brass are both high on hawes and thompson though (coach westphal loves them, but is just working out a way to keep them on the court together without a thousand fouls). From that standpoint, dont know if they need this trade.

And I know youve heard this one, but giving up hill (who has star potential) for serg and allen? how much better are the knicks going to get in another 35 games? I’d personally not resign lee, and go for two free agents while keeping hill…if i had to pick between the two.

id hope the knicks would consider their lottery pick rookie as untouchable…

RealGM.com is reporting that Ainge is trying to trade Allen for Martin but that the Kings might be more interested if another team was involved.

Would they be enticed by a young, promising big like Jordan Hill, plus a bunch of cap relief? They’d also have to give up Sergio Rodgriguez. Not sure there’s enough in it for Sac, but money can be a big thing.

Knicks give up Hill, but get 1.Cap space to re-sign Lee or possibly double max guys, and 2. A young point that may be better than anything we’ve got right now.
