View Full Version : TRADE: Nate Robinson to the Celtics Glenn 02-17-2010, 02:18 PM Done deal, apparently per Alan hahn at Newsday. Glenn 02-17-2010, 02:19 PM Not sure who the Knicks get, but probably just an expiring scab (Scal? Giddens?) and a pick/cash. Joe Asberry 02-17-2010, 02:29 PM last hope for a RIP trade is dead... Nate is a good, streaky scorer...he could help Boston if he accepts his role and won't do anything stupid Glenn 02-17-2010, 02:35 PM @WojYahooNBA: Knicks Celtics still talking on Robinson-Eddie House, 3 sources say, but may not be a deal until tomorrow. WTFchris 02-17-2010, 02:40 PM Why does NY do this? Both are expiring deals, how does this help them at all? I don't see the point unless Jeffries and some Boston expiring deals are in there too. Glenn 02-17-2010, 02:48 PM Gotta be cash and/or a pick in there, too. Glenn 02-17-2010, 02:50 PM Nate trade not "official" but done - and @WojYahooNBA says may not finalize until tomorrow - but sounds like it is House/2nd Rnd pick. WTFchris 02-17-2010, 03:07 PM 2nd round pick from Boston is basically worthless. I still don't see a reason for NY to do this. They could possibly keep Nate cheap next year or just let him walk. I doubt they really want House next year. Unless they get a first rounder I think it's stupid. They could have just traded him to LAL to get their second round pick back next year. They are looking for a PG (not sure if he fits the bill though). Hermy 02-17-2010, 03:32 PM D'Tone hates Nate. House works well in that system. Fool 02-17-2010, 03:47 PM Quintessential stand at the arc and fire when loaded guy. Glenn 02-17-2010, 03:49 PM Reminder: Nate for House straight-up doesn't work due to Nate's BYC. Have to add scrub(s) on both sides. Uncle Mxy 02-17-2010, 04:17 PM I predict Natebury will be playing for a Chinese sneaker deal soon enough. RegicideGreg 02-17-2010, 05:00 PM But he can dunk. That means he's good, right? Pharaoh 02-18-2010, 06:41 AM Celtics only do it cause Robinson is "explosive" and expiring. Knicks had no intention of keeping Robinson or his Bird Rights so what do they care if they move him for similar contract? As long as it's expiring the Knicks will take just about anyone. And yet Kwame isn't on the first fucking plane to NY? Wake the fuck up Joe. WTFchris 02-18-2010, 10:25 AM Celtics only do it cause Robinson is "explosive" and expiring. Knicks had no intention of keeping Robinson or his Bird Rights so what do they care if they move him for similar contract? As long as it's expiring the Knicks will take just about anyone. And yet Kwame isn't on the first fucking plane to NY? Wake the fuck up Joe. Why would we trade Kwame to NY? If they hadn't already traded their pick I would offer Kwame/Atkins/etc for Jeffries and their pick. What do they have to offer us though? Zekyl 02-18-2010, 09:26 PM Chris makes a very good point on that. NY doesn't have anything to offer us for Kwame. We're not getting David Lee for him. What else do they have? WTFchris 02-19-2010, 01:43 PM The only thing I could think of would be Kwame and Max for Curry. They get an extra 5 mil or so in space next year for assuming Max's longer contract. We get more space when Curry expires with Tay. |
