Don’t think of it in terms of salaries because they both come off the books this year.
Al Harrington has been a servicable Knick, loyal, proud, I don’t think there is one Knick on this roster that wants to stay here in New York more than Al Harrington.
T-Mac, does Mike D’Antoni really want T-Mac on his squad?
Can T-Mac still do what he used to do?
Can he help this team play better defense?
I think T-Mac used to shoot too many outside shots after he started having back problems during his days in Orlando.
Obviously in Houston T-Mac’s injuries became a major factor. He never approached 82 games on the season while in Houston.
If I were Walsh, I’d be scouring every professional basketball league in the world for an upgrade at the point guard position right now.
Otherwise you’re begging the Minnesota Timberwolves for a crack at the rights to Ricky Rubio this summer.
All signs indicate Mr. Walsh is more focused on obtaining another forward/swingman right now, be it Tracy McGrady or Ty Thomas. Neither will mean very much this season if we can’t get a better point guard to run the D’Antoni offense.

I know after last night this team needs a shakeup. but wont T mac hurt the progress and development of Gallo and Will? I agree KD better D is not likely on the horizon with him coming.. Main improvement a go to scorer a guy that will draw fouls.. but i think he’s kinda weak mentally as is his cuz… Perhaps the ball movement might be better as well. the tam is in dire starits now.

This team really lack an on the court leader. and a conscience.
None of this has anything to do with T-Mac as a player. He would be a rental for 30 games. I would love T-Mac if we could get rid of Jeffries or Curry’s contract. That is all that matters.
