T-Mac Trades That Could Help New York

February 11th, 2010 by Mike Kurylo

With trade rumors circulating, I decided to look at some of the possibilities of a three way T-Mac deal. From the Knicks perspective, it’s obvious that they want to shed either Jeffries or Curry, and rumors are that they covet McGrady. It’s unlikely that the Knicks are going to make the playoffs, but the Rockets [...]

Our condolences to [...]
