Knicks May Add Hill To McGrady Deal

The Knicks are trying to make a deal with the Houston Rockets to bring Tracy McGrady's expiring contract over. The Knicks are now considering throwing rookie Jordan Hill in the deal. The Knicks are clearly looking to get rid of Jared Jeffries, who has played nice defensively, and Eddy Curry, who hasn't really played at all this season. However, Hill hasn't produced at all this season, and he was the Knicks first pick at #8 in the first round of the 2009 Draft.

There was a proposed deal last week between the Knicks, Rockets, and the Washington Wizards, that looked attractive to all sides. That deal included Caron Butler and Brendan Haywood, who were eventually traded to the Dallas Mavericks. Now the Knicks have to make their offer look attractive enough to get McGrady. The Knicks should also consider getting rid of Larry Hughes, who has kind of played his way out of Mike D'Antoni's rotation. The Knicks have until Thursday at 3pm, which is the trade deadline.
