    Seriously, what is Isaiah Thomas doing? Is he completely insane? I can't wait to read what Bill Simmons writes about this.

    Kincks have: Stephen Marbury, Steve Francis, Jalen Rose, Quentin Richardson, Jamal Crawford, Maurice Taylor and Nate Robinson.

    Perhaps some of those would be available. I'd take Richardson or Crawford here in Charlotte.

    Penny's contract goes off the books at the end of the season.

    The Knicks are taking on even more with Francis.

    My question is Francis and Marbury both play the point and both are ball hogs who plays where. My guess is NY already has a deal in place to dump Stephan to Denver to get Kenyon Martin and Earl Boykins.

    There has to be another trade in there somewhere. What a deal for Stevie Francise it was for T-Mac and now for Penny. Has Penny seen a Knick uniform this year or is he in the three piece suit.

    What i don't get is why do you trade for a PG? when you all ready have 3PG on your roster before this trade happen.If any thing should you not trade for a Big man like a C or a SF.like who is going to play SG for the Knicks ??????

    It's a soft cap. You are charged a penalty for every dollar you go over the limit.

    the best part of it is that neither Marbury or Francis are real PGs. They've basically got a bunch of SGs and no PGs.
