About getting Chris Paul

Knick Knacks | Bergen Record — Know this about the on-line reports now out there (starting with CBSSports.com) that Chris Paul has the Knicks (plus Magic and Lakers) on his “get me out of New Orleans” list. He’s been on the Knicks’ list since the end of last season, even before. And Paul has been hinting at getting out since then, too. The problem: They don’t exactly have much of anything the Hornets want, except Danilo Gallinari. Maybe LSU product Anthony Randolph. Scratch Raymond Felton, meanwhile, until mid-December, as he can’t be traded until then because of free-agent signing rules. And if you’re thinking Eddy Cur...

Canis Hoopus — Minnesota Timberwolves general manager David Kahn is once again changing directions on his franchise’s future at point guard. As a possible prelude to the trading of Ramon Sessions(notes), Luke Ridnour(notes) has agreed in principle to a four-year, $16 million contract with the Wolves, league sources told Yahoo! Sports. The Wolves are discussing a deal with the Charlotte Bobcats, sources said, that could send Sessions to replace Raymond Felton(notes), who signed a free-agent contract with the New York Knicks. Charlotte wants to first exhaust free-agent options before it turns to the trade. Mi...

Who are these guys?

Knick Knacks | Bergen Record — With the Knicks fully embroiled in what’s been a summer of lively NBA player movement thus far, it seems appropriate to outline what they have for the moment. So here’s a quick depth chart, with some thoughts to follow: C: Ronny Turiaf, Eddy Curry, Jerome Jordan, Timofey Mozgov PF: Amar’e Stoudemire, Anthony Randolph SF: Danilo Gallinari, Bill Walker, Landry Fields SG: Wilson Chandler, Kelenna Azubuike, Andy Rautins PG: Raymond Felton, Toney Douglas - What’s going to happen, we’re certain, is that whomever starts at center doesn’t play a lot of minutes, with Stoudemire getting the bulk of th...

IC Cold Links: Keeping An Eye On Bobcats And Raptors Deal; Pacers' CIB Deal Roundup

Indy Cornrows — Keep an eye on Charlotte today. The Bobcats have been a team to monitor this summer since they expressed an interest in T.J. Ford at the trade deadline last year. With Raymond Felton joining the New York Knicks, the Bobcats remain a plausible destination for the Pacers' point guard. As fate would have it, his Ford's old running mate in Toronto may beat him out for the spot with the Bobcats. Yesterday, reports surfaced that Toronto and Charlotte were closing in on a deal to send Boris Diaw and Tyson Chandler to the Raptors in exchange for point guard Jose Calderon, Reggie Evans and some pa...

Randolph becomes Knicks' big building block

New York Post — Amar'e Stoudemire is a five-time All-Star. Raymond Felton is a good point guard. Anthony Randolph? The key to the season. And perhaps the key to drawing Carmelo Anthony.

Free Agent Point Guards Plucked from Trees: More Practice of Patience Over Haste

Indy Cornrows — A free agency season that has suddenly caused a lot of headaches for just about every team in the league is beginning to see a trickle down effect to the Indiana Pacers. Not only were the Pacers going to be bit players in the free agency market anyway, but when everyone strikes out thanks to the player collusion of the Bro Alliance, suddenly, the pickings become slimmer. Raymond Felton, one of the few possibilities to solve the Pacers glaring point guard issue was signed by the scrambling Knicks for a sum much higher than the Pacers could (or should) pay for Felton’s ...
