Default Knicks get Eddy Curry

No report on the players involved. Most likely IMO, Sweets, Tim Thomas, picks, maybe David Lee, perhaps Bill Bradleys Jersey and the rights to the soul of Alan Houston.

I think Paxon made the right decision. This is a huge gamble for the Knicks. If he turns out to have a bum ticker, we basically got screwed out whatever we gave up for him. The Bulls practiced patience and the Knicks blindly charged ahead. Typical Isiah. Anyway, it looks like my Knicks/Bulls regular season record bet just got a lot better for me.

It also says that the Bulls offered Curry $400,000 a year for 50 years if he failed the DNA test. He turns down 20 mil guaranteed?

It's good for the Knicks I think. Sucks to give up Sweetney - I think he's gonna be a solid player.

Btw, what are the Bulls doing with Deng, Sweetney and Tim Thomas at SF?

Sweetney is a 270 lb PF. Deng is one of the Bulls cornerstone players at SF, so he will be the starter. TT will come off the bench for a year then sign elsewhere, most likely.

Sweetney never played the 4 with the Knicks, did he? I thought he was always the SF.

Actually, Sweetney spent a lot of time at center last year, with his other minutes coming at the 4. He didn't play one minute at small forward.

I don't know if you've watched him play, but if you had, you'd know he's not a small forward.

Sweetney is my favorite player. But he's def gone. Looks like TT, Sweets, Jermaine Jackson (for sal cap reasons), and the Spurs 1st for Curry and Antonio Davis.

As a Bulls fan who dosen't really follow the rest of the league, what can I expect from Thomas and Sweetney? I remember both players from college but haven't paid attention to them since.

In Eddy Curry, you Knicks fans can expect an over-rated one-dimensional scorer. His defense is very poor, he never boxes out, and rarely puts forth much effort. He can score in bunches when he feels like it. Basically has 1 move inside, but his first step is so quick that it's effective. Heart problems or not, I'm glad to see him move on.
