The Knicks chased hard after Anotheny and Stoudemire, they're hardly going to trade them away now. They knew what they were like defensively (i.e. they don't play any) when they signed them, so I'm guessing they were prepared to live with that.
My guess is that they will definitely match the offer for Lin. Not sure about the offer for Fields, probably depends on how much money they have to play with.
Agree with Dwight at the Nets, I'm just a little sick of seeing 3 superstars all go and play together. From a competition standpoint, it's the least interesting of all the possible options.
The Celtics did it, then the Lakers added Gasol (with Bynum already there) and have now added Nash, the Knicks tried it (they also wanted Lebron), the Heat obviosuly did it and now the Nets are trying it. There just seems to be too much of a gap between the top 4 or 5 teams and the rest, due in part to teams trying to create super teams to compete. The ironic thing is, the Thunder took the opposite route, developed their darft picks instead and built a team that way - and they've made it to Finals already.
I guess I'd just like to see the superstars spead over more teams, and seeing how they go playing against each other, rather than teaming up. It just seems this would make for a much more interesting competition.
I think I might've gone a little off-topic here. :p
