| They get rose and a 1st rounder good deal for Knicks especially since its not like they are gonna have cap space any time soon. |

And their payrole skyrockets even more. WTF are they smoking over there? That's 125,000,000 dollars owed. Incredible. Jalen is good, but not that good. They need to do a case study on Knicks management/ownership.

antonio davis contract was as bad but expires this summer. Knicks were thinking, Hardway's contract is gonna expire this summer anyways so they mines well add another k.

Apparently from what I hear here in Toronto the deal has the Raptors sending Jalen and a 1st pick (Denver's pick) for Antonio Davis. The benefit to the Maple Raps is that Antonio's contract expires at the end of the year and they'll have about $10M-$12M in cap space to play with in the off season.
Look for the Raptors to sign Mike James as he and Bosh have bonded. |

Davis knows the turf in Toronto. He didn't like N.Y. Rose is another in a long line of over-the-hill players gone to N.Y. to end their career.

Wasn't Isiah the reason Rose was traded to Chicago back in the Indiana days? What is he thinking? 
That was a good trade too, for Miller and Artest. |

He was a better player than he is an executive making player personnel decisions. It does sound like Larry Brown is in favor of the move.
