    JR Smith having a meltdown on twitter suggests he got traded?

    Robert Randolph Knicks owner's best friend just tweeted this as well:

    Robert Randolph's tweet looks right. #Knicks closing in on Steve Nash in sign and trade with Phoenix.

    JR Smith is a free agent. He can't get traded unless he agrees to it.

    helps our leverage in Lin negotiations for sure. Have to think we could offer him 4-5 million a year and get away with it.

    If Nash signs with the Knicks I don't see them matching for Lin. Poor value for them when Lin would only get 15-20 minutes a game.

    By the way, Nash may help the Knicks' offense click on all cylinders, but once they trade away Shumpert for him they are literally going to have the worst defensive 1-4 in the entire NBA. It's going to be hilarious. I hope Tyson Chandler is ready because he's going to have his work cut out for him.

    Lin becomes their starting SG. They've lost every other one.

    Tough break Raptors.

    Good looking contract you signed Fields to, though. :)

    Knicks' dream scenario, sources say, to sign-and-trade for Nash AND re-sign Jeremy Lin if they can

    Lin
    Melo
    Amare

    They want Nash to help mentor Lin. Many people were comparing Lin's style with Nash during Linsanity. Nash has got probably 1 to 2 years left in his body MAX as a starting PG before he turns Mike Bibby. The Knicks are betting their future on Lin. As Marc Stein said, if Lin re-signs, Knicks will be extremely happy

    Does it matter with that lineup? Some undrafted rookies would get it done...

    What, if anything, does this do to the Gordon situation?
