"Tyson brought a lot of energy and a lot of enthusiasm for basketball, I think he will do the same thing, he was in Dallas, here in New York, we got what everyone wants to be in New York, this is a big man. Thai Sen has established itself as a leading force in the defensive end.

"He showed the biggest stage in sports, win the championship."

Mavericks owner Mark Kuban, determined to maintain financial flexibility, according to a new, more restrictive collective bargaining agreement, only a two-year contract. "The New York Times" reported that Chandler is expected to deal with the Knicks $ 5.8 billion at the Four Seasons range.

"In this case, signed with the Mavericks, but no business sense," Chandler said, he averaged 10.1 points and 9.4 rebounds and finished third in voting defensive player.

I will always love the fans there, and everyone there with Dallas, because I won the first championship. Last year, we have an incredible year, and will always be in my heart. "

Knicks might make some of their own business decisions, so that the first Chandler room. Several reports that Billups can in the CBA under the terms of the new amnesty to give up. In addition, sources told ESPN the Magazine team striker Ronny - Ronny Turiaf and $ 3 million in cap space the team, a clear salary. Knicks on Friday night to complete the transaction to send Turiaf Wizards, New York Post "reported, citing sources.

Even so, it did not take the Knicks coach - Mike D'Antoni signed a long-term perspective.

, "D'Antoni said:" he brings all, we did not. "... We get a lot better real fast."

Stoudemire money to Chandler that the Knicks on the right track.

"We are looking for a center, and Tyson - Chandler's a perfect combination for us," Stoudemire said. "It's something we do talk, when I first signed here ... ... hope to build a championship caliber team."

To increase the depth of its center of rotation of the calf challenge is to make good players to take short-term trading, in order to maintain its largest summer recruitment program in 2012 salary space.
