Not actually rumored but just wanted to get your guys thoughts. KnicksFan4Years brought it up in another thread.

So I checked out both rosters. The Warriors BTW don't have a bad contract on their books lol. Al Harrington for 8 mil might be the worst one and I'd take that in a heartbeat. Anyway, I believe Pietrus can terminate his contract so we could do a sign and trade where we give them:

Knicks Send:
Zach Randolph
Renaldo Balkman

Warriors Send:
Al Harrington
Mikael Pietrus

Let's face it they look like they're not going to make the playoffs and probably need a little shakeup. They would get a legit low post player on offense who would benefit greatly from having a downlow defender in Biedrins paired with him.

Baron/Monta/Sjax/Zach/Biedrins is pretty balanced. Balkman could add some energy and defense that seems to appear at times.

Meanwhile for us it's a no brainer because we can finally start Lee (which would open up the paint and maybe rejuvenate Curry on the offensive end at least) and Harrington can play the 3 for us.

Plus we get rid of Zach and guess when Harrington expires!!

Two questions:
1. What do you guys think of the trade?
2. Do you think there is anyway the Warriors would consider a deal like that?

ya that would be an awesome trade but the Warriors wont go for it .... they are fast up and down the court team ... Randolph slows them down

i know golden state has to do something since they missed the playoffs and i see them going for a faster player then Randolph .... and they are keeping Al Harrington

CityGuy you were so close to predicting this trade back in April .... points to you for guessing which 2 players would be involved in a Knicks trade.

haha too bad it was Crawford and not Randolph ... I would have been on the money
