McGrady to Knicks in three way deal

[yisman]

The Houston Rockets, Sacramento Kings and New York Knicks have agreed to terms that will expand the Houston-Sacramento deal into a three-way trade that lands Tracy McGrady with the Knicks, according to NBA front-office sources.

The Knicks will acquire McGrady and Sergio Rodriguez from Sacramento, sources said.

The Rockets get Kevin Martin, Jordan Hill and Jared Jeffries from New York and will have the right to swap first-round picks with New York in 2011 as well as take on New York's 2012 first-round pick.

Sacramento obtains Houston's Carl Landry and Joey Dorsey and New York's Larry Hughes.

Knicks get the expiring contract instead of their bad contracts in exchange for their previous first rounder and a 2012 first rounder, really.

Wow, NY is clearing out their payroll (even more).

[tomcast]

Good for the Knicks

t mac is all but dead and gone.

I thought he was overrated for years. Figures of past seasons at 82games.com suggest he's a good, but hardly a superstar. People who shoot a lot tend to get overrated.

The problems with Tmac is he's inconsistent as hell. He plays 2 games then takes off 1 game. Teams have to scheme for their opponent then they have to scheme for whether or not he's going to play. He sits out if he has a hangnail or if his pussy hurts. Detriment to the team.

Can't wait for this summer. Where do you think T-Mac ends up next year if he can still kind of play? Celtics? lol

[Mac4Lyfe]

I think TMac will be out of the NBA next year. Too old, too slow and about to hit menopause.

[elynch]

Honestly Ive though Tmac has been overrated his whole carrer dude just jacks up shots. Theres a reason he hasnt been out the first round

[yisman]

yep. He's not a winner.

The Rockets were fools to give him that huge contract.

Love this trade as a Knicks fan. Will give me some entertainment watching T-Mac for the rest of the year, but more importantly allow us to offer two max contracts this summer.

I can't believe they traded Carl Landry.
