06:56 AM ET 07.08 | The Warriors are close to a sign-and-trade with the New York Knicks for their All-Star power forward David Lee, according to multiple sources. The Warriors would send forward Anthony Randolph - not guard Monta Ellis as previously rumored - along with a few other pieces to New York. But, like the rest of the universe, they are waiting on LeBron James.

Randolph does kind of look like Ellis in that pic.
Almost thought it was Monta lol

The Mini-me and the Big-me... they do look identical...

Is Randolph any good? doesn't seem like an equal value trade

So is Lee about to become the next victim of Nellie? He loves them when he picks them up, then he drives them crazy and benches them.

Yea, but he would probably fit well in NY

David lee is actually a good fit there. Speaking just on numbers of course. they wont win a thing with just adding him to their roster but they'll score. he's active on the boards and a good shooter so he'll put in a lot of those long rebounds their two "combo" guards create.

If I were Lee, before I'd go to the Warriors, I'd take another 1 yr deal with the Knicks.

to be honest i cant see lee playing for the warriors are even wanting to.............i think the nets will offer him a good deal

RUN DMC. David, Monta and Curry. I hope this happens. Sad to see Randolph leave. He will kill it in N.Y with Amare.

I don't see Lee playing in Golden state, plus the Knicks are not getting anything in return Randolph is not that good of a player and has been hurt. This is not a good trade the Knicks would be basically giving Lee away

July 8, 2010  08:49 AM ET

This is terrible, I'm a diehard Knicks fan... and I want Monte Ellis, he's the most underrated PG in the league! BUT... the only thing I can think of is that, they will pass on Monte, and take back whoever... in order to save cap space for Melo next year. So next year we'll have Luke Rid PG, Bron SG, Melo, SF, Dinillo PW and Amare C. FYI - Great call with the Run DMC!

Would be a great deal for the GSW.....cause beside Randolph, GSW would need to make the salary match by sent Ronny Turiaf player option for next year, and / or Kelenna Azubuike, All-Star (ha,ha) Vladimir Radmanovic, or maybe Danny G from MILW, an expiring contact to NYk......I see the plan for NY one MAX player Amare....rest expiring contacts...same plan as last season.

Lee is going to the Nets

July 8, 2010  09:18 AM ET

I wonder what along with "a few other pieces to New York" means, maybe a first round pick to replace the one sent to Houston for McGrady in 2012.

The Knicks cannot be stupider than I though Lee a young top 10 PF for Randolph and a bag of used nylon nets....NO this has to BS...no one can be that dumb......can they?
