This quote is interesting: "An NBA source says that the Knicks would be willing to trade any of their players other than Stephon Marbury, Allan Houston or Keith Van Horn for Wallace"

What that means is this. The Knicks are offering their JUNK players and bloated contracts (only) to Portland. (It takes about $15M of contracts to make a salary match for Wallace.) And NY has already traded away 2 #1s and their legit young talent to get Marbury, so that sort of stuff isnt an option either.

Hmmmm, $15M worth of junk players and bloated contracts????? Wonder what Portland will do?
