Message: [QUOTE="Madbiker, post: 4344823, member: 312"] I don't see how giving up Barrett, Quickley, and more plus 3 of their own unprotected #1's plus another #1 they acquired for Mitchell could possibly make the Knicks better. Mitchell is a really good scorer but he's one guy. Opening up other holes plus giving away a ton of future draft capital just made no sense. which is why these talks went nowhere for many many weeks. The trade makes sense for Cleveland because they are not giving up any of their 3 best players. They had surplus talent to trade. Unlike the Knicks who don't and would have just robbed Peter to pay Paul. On to the next hot thing. [/QUOTE]
