New York Knickerbockers President of Basketball Operations Donnie Walsh announced today that the team has acquired the draft rights to center Jerome Jordan from Milwaukee in exchange for cash considerations. Jordan was selected by Milwaukee in the second round (44th overall) of the 2010 NBA Draft. He is expected to play for the team’s entry in the NBA Summer League in Las Vegas, NV.

New York Knickerbockers President of Basketball Operations Donnie Walsh announced today that five-time NBA All-Star forward Amar’e Stoudemire has agreed to terms with the team. As per club policy, terms of the deal will not be disclosed.

“When I arrived here in New York, our goal was to create enough flexibility to sign the elite players in our league that would enable us to build a championship caliber team,” Walsh said. “Signing Amar’e represents the first step in that process. Amar’e gives us one of the premiere frontcourt players in the league whose numerous abilities and familiarity with Mike’s system make him an outstanding fit for us.”

Stoudemire, 6-10, 249-pounds, has career averages of 21.4 points, 8.9 rebounds, 1.40 blocks and 34.3 minutes in 516 career games (499 starts) in eight NBA seasons with the Phoenix Suns. The Lake Wales, FL-native has been named an NBA All-Star five times and holds playoff career averages of 24.2 points and 9.2 rebounds in 52 playoff games (all starts). Selected by Phoenix with the ninth overall selection in the 2002 NBA Draft, Stoudemire was named the NBA Rookie of the Year in 2003 and has been named All-NBA four times, including a first team All-NBA selection in 2007.

“Amar’e is one of the most talented players I have ever worked with and I’m excited to welcome him to New York,” Knicks Head Coach Mike D’Antoni said. “He has thrived in our system and will be a great addition to our team.”

In 2009-10, Stoudemire started all 82 regular season games and averaged 23.1 points, 8.9 points and 34.6 minutes while shooting 55.7-percent from the floor in earning All-NBA Second Team honors. Stoudemire finished the season ranked 10th in the NBA in scoring and seventh in the league in field goal percentage and led the Suns to the Western Conference Finals.



Knicks Acquire Randolph, Azubuike & Turiaf
David Lee Traded to Golden State Warriors

New York Knickerbockers President of Basketball Operations Donnie Walsh announced today that the team has acquired forward Anthony Randolph, swingman Kelenna Azubuike, forward/center Ronny Turiaf and a 2012 second round draft pick from the Golden State Warriors in exchange for forward David Lee, via sign-and-trade.

“This trade gives us an outstanding young frontcourt talent in Anthony, and along with Kelenna and Ronny, we feel they will all be key contributors to our team,” Walsh said. “David Lee developed into an All-Star last season in New York and we wish him continued success in Golden State.”

Randolph, 6-10, 210-pounds, has career averages of 9.2 points, 6.0 rebounds and 19.6 minutes in 96 career games (30 starts) in two NBA seasons with Golden State.

The 21-year-old Randolph averaged 11.6 points, 6.5 rebounds and 22.7 minutes in 33 games (eight starts) during the 2009-10 season, but missed the final 47 games of the season with a left ankle injury.

“We have acquired three players that we have liked for a long time that will be excellent fits in our system,” said Knicks Head Coach Mike D’Antoni. “I enjoyed seeing David develop into an All-Star during my two seasons with him and I hope this trade will provide him with a good opportunity to build on what he started in New York.”

Azubuike, 6-5, 220-pounds, has career averages of 10.6 points, 4.0 rebounds and 24.4 minutes in 205 career games (84 starts) in four NBA seasons with Golden State. The Tulsa, OK-native went undrafted out of the University of Kentucky and signed as a free agent with the Warriors on Jan. 2, 2007 out of the NBA Development League. Azubuike enjoyed his best NBA season in 2008-09, averaging career highs of 14.4 points and 5.0 rebounds in 74 games (51 starts). In 2009-10, Azubuike averaged 13.9 points and 4.6 rebounds over the first nine games of the season before suffering a torn left patellar tendon that sidelined him the final 73 games of the season.

Turiaf, 6-10, 250-pounds, has career averages of 5.5 points, 3.9 rebounds and 17.9 minutes in 294 career games (69 starts) in five NBA seasons with the L.A. Lakers and Golden State.

Raymond Felton signs for the Knicks

Point guard Raymond Felton's contract figures, finalized today, is two years, $15.8M, according to a source.

There may be a third-year team option but that has yet to be negotiated upon. The Knicks chose Felton partly because he was willing to sign for two years and give the Knicks 2012 flexibility. Donnie Walsh confirmed the agreement is in place.

Felton and the three Golden Staters from the David Lee sign-and-trade - Anthony Randolph, Ronny Turiaf and Kelanna Azubuike - will be introduced at a press conference Monday in Greenburg's practice facility.

Russian center Timofey Mozgov will sign a three year, 9.7 million dollar contract with the New York Knicks. Knicks will pay Khimki 500k USD.

Meal Ticket!

sigh

GL man... I like that lineup with STAT now as the anchor; give 'buike & Meal Ticket lots o' burn

I love this Knicks team now. Meal Ticket, and the fact that they are a 6-8 seed team makes them a great choice. Hope this one can last.

Yep, I also really like this Knicks roster. Good luck man.

Good luck man, make this one last. Are Melo and Tony Parker in your future plans by any chance?

Cheers for the comments guys just got the rosters upto date and started the season.

First game is against the new look Timberwolves !

Looking forward to the start of this, and seeing Meal Ticket's development.

What line-up are you gonna go with?

C - Amare
F - Randolph
F - Gallo
G - Chandler
G - Felton

This?

Ronny at center Amare at pf with the meal ticket as the 6th man.

interesting move relegating Meal Ticket to the bench and starting Ronnie, but seems to have worked out for you (this game anyway)... nice start regardless ; btw, something's up with your shot attempt totals

FG Made-Attempted NYK 34-37 MIN 33-88

HaHa yeah shot the lights out

Its really "34-97" cheers for noticing

I was trying to keep it realistic as Amare has said in really life that he doesnt want to play center and i kind of like the fire power off the bench that he can bring.

5 blocks by the Meal Ticket
good win !

Thanks

Superb game by STAT against the Wolves, but then Rondo killed you. Loved the presentation when you used the Bucks and I still do, props for that

Damn, Pierce and Ray-Ray couldn't miss. Great debut from Randolph though.

Cool recap. Pierce, Ray and Rondo took a dump on you. Who's that scary guy wearing #5?

Tough, but reasonable loss. I don't think that you're ready to matchup with the Celtics just yet, but it's good to see that your'e starting to shoot some threes with Gallo. I noticed that he didn't even attempt one in Minnesota.

The Knicks are now actually a pretty appealing team. I like your lineup. Deffinately got to increase those 3pt attempts with Gallo though!! Loving the boxscore presentation too, what is the site again for that?
