Message: [QUOTE="jncuse, post: 4562434, member: 1969"] Trading Fournier today is difficult. - there are two scenarios to move him. 1) Knicks using draft capital or young players with value to get out of his contract. 2) Finding another limited player with a bad contract around $19m that expires next year, and hoping change of environments work for both players. Scenario #1 makes zero sense. Why would the Knicks use draft assets or young playes to get rid of him? The Knicks are headed above the salary cap line anyway for next year so trying to clear his contract for cap space accomplishes nothing. Scenario #2 is very hard - can only be a few contracts like that in the league/ The role for Fournier now is to sit his butt on the bench, hopefully not complain, and then potentially be a filler in a Knicks consolidation trade next year when he is an expiring contract (since 24/25 is a club option).
