wonder if NYC would be willing to take nate back now that he's matured a bit?

No way NY takes Nate back, hes declined as a player since he was in NY.

Seriously thats how bad Nate has gotten.

Oh man Brewer plays defense so he doesn't fit into D'Antoni only plays like 9 deep anyway so Brewer could actually waste away in New York I wonder who else we can trade to try and pick him up

well now that new york prly thinks they can match up against us in this so called "rivalry" & that brewer would be a good backup for melo i doubt it but who knows maybe but they probably wouldnt want nate & his extra 4.5 mill next year since there going to pursue guys like CP3 & deron williams ,so unless they bring in a 3rd team maybe they'll want

marquis(contract reasons)
bradley
& a 1st

only way i see it but its doubtful

I'm not sure that he has declined.  I think he may actually have gained value by showing he can play a role on a winning team.  

He just has already burned that bridge with D'Antoni, plus, with Billups and Carter coming in, they don't have a whole lot of a need for another PG...particularly not one signed for decent money next season.

NY wants the pick.  They want more ammo for trades.

Not a huge fan of this deal. Brewer is low on my list of back up 3's. Rather have Nate and dangle that first rounder somewhere else.

Exactly I'd rather have Nate then Brewer.

If you're going to trade a 1st round pick and Nate you better get a better player in return and not Brewer. The clock is ticking on the C's and they do need to make a move but Brewer is not the answer.

What?? lol while I dont agree on adding the first round pick along with Nate, what has Robinson done this year to warrant him deserving to stay?? Brewer plays better defense and while not a great shooter he can hit jumpers on occasion

If Danny was seriously considering this, that doesn't say much about the quality of his other options...

my thoughts exactly...
makes me wonder if he is thinking of bringing in 2 pieces.
I am starting to think he is really going to try and get rip in somehow.
