I think Lee ends up getting traded this offseason which would suck but we need that 2010 cap S+T you mean? I doubt that. I think they'll let him walk if they're not planning on matching and keeping him, but who knows. There is no way in hell they let him go for free. He's our most valuable commodity. and yes i meant in a sign and trade.. he has lots of value i can see someone trying to overpay

I just don't see the sign and trade happening. If they don't re-sign him, it's to maintain cap for 2010. So if they trade him, it'd either have to be for expirings or to a team with cap, and they'd try to get a first out of it? There aren't a lot of suitors and it's a very specific kind of deal. I think they only match if they plan on keeping him.

Yeah, they would let their most valuable asset walk away for free? lol I'll bet anything that it would never happen. and ummm obviously the team would need cap if they're going to bid on lee... soooo obviously they would have cap to take him straight up.. so um yeah

I think the Knicks have two sign and trade options, and one is pretty weak. The Pistons are targeting Lee as their third FA option at PF. The only rumor I can remember hearing is Amir and a first for Lee in a S+T. That's obviously a nice option, but I consider it really remote because I think they're going to spend on Gordon and get either Boozer or Millsap.
The other option is a good one. They could do Lee for either Miles/1st or Outlaw and Sergio.
As I was saying, outside of teams with cap room, the only way they'd do a S+T is if they get expirings. So a team would have to be willing to move expirings and a first the offseason before 2010. There are very few suitors of that sort out there. I expected Dallas to want Lee, but have heard nothing.
I know the Boston Globe said the Knicks are looking at a sign and trade. But I don't think they can choose their options. Really depends where other FAs sign.

Either you completely misread my post, or you don't understand what a sign and trade is.[/quote Re-reading your post, I think you're saying a Lee sign and trade would be to the team he signed the offer sheet with. That's not allowed--if you match an offer sheet, it can't be to do a sign and trade. Lee would have to re-sign without signing an offer sheet.

The bust, Mr. Invisible, Earl Clark should go here. He and Yi could make a nice invisible, soft frontcourt. This was the 5th vote. Me, Don, Ashes, Andy, Dru

I don't think Holiday will fall this far, oh well.
I think Henderson goes to the Bobcats.

They need a SG more, but I think Holiday is too talented to pass up.

Ok. Whatever!
The Bobcats played well with Augustin, Felton and Bell in their backcourt. But I've heard Bell is expendable. I think they're fine 1-3 and need a big alongside Emeka, and should go Hans or Blair, but I'd guess they take Henderson here.
So, Henderson.
