Default Re: Knicks get Eddy Curry

I think it's going to depend very heavily on what Lebron wants to do. There have been a lot of stars in the past who would make you say that the owner would have to be insane to let them go, but they demand a trade and they're gone. Shaq, Joe Johnson, and Vince Carter are examples. If they know they're going to end up losing him anyway the following year, they have to scramble to get as much for him as they can while they still have a chance, or end up with nothing.

For the next two years, it's really all about making Lebron happy enough to stay there. They seem to be on the right track, but a front office melt down like last year's, or some unforseen problems, and Lebron will be asking out, and they won't really have much chance other. Who knows what he wants? The extra 20 million that the Cavs can offer him as a RFA will play a role as well.
