Probably because you weren't the first one... look quite a few pages back.

Had we kept Sweetney and Hudson instead of Giddens and Shelden, we would still have Eddie and Walker, have a legit backup point guard in Hudson, and far more rebounding and another really valuable 6 fouls off the bench. I'm just sayin'.

Sweetney, is that you?
Honestly, I wouldn't be surprised if Walker and Giddens are both cut/ bought out/released.  The Knicks have no use for them.

Sweetney would have eaten Hudson.

I hate this. I already miss Eddie. I know from a pure talent standpoint Nate is a much better player but I'm a big Eddie House fan just cuz. This sucks...

[Rondo_is_better]

Wish it was Carl Landry. Anyone know anything about this Landry brother, though?

Best thing about this trade? Cs didnt give up their 2010 1st rounder! that could turn into Renardo Sydney, Manny Harris, or Lance Stephenson! and yes 2010 draft is as deep as you can get! so 25 overall could end up being a star

[Brickowski]

The 2010 draft is John Wall and 59 question marks.

Danny Ainge on Nate Robinson ... “Nate is one of the great athletes in the league and he brings a dynamic scorer to our team. We have been seeking a second ball handler capable of penetrating the defense and we believe that he provides that. We love Nate’s ability to pressure the ball defensively and we think he can add to our defense as well as our offense.”

It's official, finally. The C's acquired Nate Robinson and Marcus Landry from the Knicks in exchange for House, Giddens & Bill Walker.

But what about Turner the Burner?? Kid does everything you'd want a swingman to do. I think he should be the consensus number 2.
