fish7718 Posted February 28, 2011 Report Share Posted February 28, 2011 The NBA's buyout market will soon have a surprise addition: New York Knicks' Corey Brewer. The Knicks and Brewer are closing in on a buyout agreement that will make the former Minnesota swingman a free agent, sources close to the situation told ESPN.com. Because Brewer will be officially released before March 1, he's eligible to play in the playoffs with another team. Sources say Boston, San Antonio, Oklahoma City and Dallas are among the teams with the most interest in Brewer, who joined the Knicks only last week as part of the Carmelo Anthony deal. The Celtics had previously tried to acquire Brewer from Minnesota before the Anthony trade went through. ESPN .....*Kanye Shrug* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Truth Posted March 1, 2011 Report Share Posted March 1, 2011 awesome. we literally traded Randolph for nothing. since we cut both Brewer and Azubuike today, you can take it a step further and say we traded David Lee for Turiaf straight up. D'Antoni doesn't know how to use his talents. he refuses to manage anything more than an eight man rotation and that's haunted us in terms of trades. a good coach makes use of all his players. had Randolph actually gotten time to play this year, we probably could've gotten a low first round pick for him. instead, we get nothing. They bought Brewer but not Balkman? The hell?the Knicks are so depleted in terms of big men, they simply can't afford to get rid of the mediocre Balkman. if Amare or Turiaf goes down with injury, Antonio's gonna get a chunk of minutes, unfortunately.

Erick Blasco Posted March 1, 2011 Report Share Posted March 1, 2011 They bought Brewer but not Balkman? The hell? Neither can shoot but one can actually play defense. And without knowing the contracts, I'd infer that Balkman is cheaper. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(You don't see the Phil Jackson making use of Derrick Carracter or Joe Smith do you?). had Randolph actually gotten time to play this year, we probably could've gotten a low first round pick for him. instead, we get nothing we may have lost an extra game or two. the Knicks are so depleted in terms of big men, they simply can't afford to get rid of the mediocre Balkman. if Amare or Turiaf goes down with injury, Antonio's gonna get a chunk of minutes, unfortunately. Jared Jeffries is the defensive-minded big who will come over and fill the emergency minutes. 6-9 swingman Brewer isn't playing any backup power forward.

Finch23 Posted March 1, 2011 Report Share Posted March 1, 2011 Still no word on where this cat is going, and if history repeats itself it's not going to be San Antonio. However I really like Brewers potential especially on the Spurs. He is a very solid defender and the Spurs have needed that ever since Bowen left.
