Knicks get Eddy Curry

[Aytumious]

Getting Lebron is a pipe dream for the Knicks. They clearly won't be under the cap, so a trade is the only way it happens. That isn't likely since the Cavs would basically have to agree to do it. Sign and trades generally happen when the original team doesn't want to pay -- Kmart -- the player is very unhappy and making huge salary demands -- Shaq -- or extenuating circumstances a la Curry.

Fun stat on the Knicks center postion. Knicks 2 centers (Curry and James) combined for 8.4 rebounds in 45.5 minutes last year.

Dan Gadzuric went for 8.3 rebounds in 22 minutes last year.

James actually averaged more fouls than rebounds last year while Curry would have ranked #12 in rebounds per game amongst shooting guards.
