|
After early speculation that the Knicks might move up in Thursday’s draft, the latest indications are that the team is in discussions to move down.
According to executives with two teams, the Knicks are discussing a swap of first-round picks with Portland. The Knicks would send the No. 6 pick, forward David Lee and another player to the Trail Blazers for the 13th and 27th picks and a player, possibly Steve Blake or Jarrett Jack. (Portland is acquiring the 27th pick from New Orleans.)
The deal could make sense for the Knicks if they believe that none of the players they want will be available at No. 6. In a deep draft, they could acquire two useful players instead of one, while perhaps unloading an unwanted contract. Blake or Jack could fill their need for a point guard.
Lee was also reportedly dangled in a proposed trade with Memphis for the No. 5 pick, a sign that he is not part of the Knicks’ long-term plans.

This was too good to be true from the get-go.
I do think David Lee would fit in great with our core. As Charles Barkley said about Lee: "He'd be scary good on a playoff team."
I think Frye fits our team both on and off the floor and would hate to move him. He's on a cheap contract and just now coming into his own. I would look to package Przybilla for David Lee.
