Remember the Balkman trade? The Knicks dealt Balkman for basically nothing... and EVERYONE complained.

Well here is some news for you:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2010_NBA_Draft#endnote_Note13m_1
On July 28, 2008, New York acquired Taurean Green, Bobby Jones and a second-round pick from Denver in exchange for Renaldo Balkman and cash considerations.<sup id="cite_ref-34" class="reference">[35]</sup> Previously, the L.A. Clippers acquired Marcus Camby on July 15, 2008 from Denver in exchange for the option to swap 2010 second-round picks.<sup id="cite_ref-35" class="reference">[36]</sup> The options to swap 2010 second-round picks was exercised, hence New York acquired L.A. Clippers' second-round pick via Denver and the L.A. Clippers acquired Denver's second-round pick.

Guess who the Knicks basically dealt Balkman for? Landry Fields. Win.

nice!

Poetic in so many ways

Isiah drafts Balkman to show he is some sort of NBA draft prophet, Balkman is a bust, Donnie trades him for what we thought was nothing at the time and gets a steal! Please send this thread to that fool Dolan so when Isiah lobbies for his return to NY and uses his draft credentials as his reason for being capable.

the knicks had back to back picks so they could of easily picked rautins with that pick

i think they drafted rautins first bcuz thats what the crowd wanted

then took the sleeper with fields
