Delonte West

Although it is highly unlikely that Delonte West is or ever will be made available and although we most likely do note have the means to acquire him, I feel he would be a perfect fit for our team as our 6th man off the bench or even next to Marbury in the starting lineup. I know that the Celtics have been stockpiling swingmen and point guards, forcing West into an awkward position in their rotation. I know West is a solider of sorts and sacrificies himself for the best interest of the team but even he must be frustrated by the lack of confidence of the management in his health. I do not know how we'd get him but if we did, he'd be a guy that would add a solid defensive presence to our squad. NOT JUST A GUY WHO HUSTLE ON DEFENSE but a guy whose actually GOOD on that end of the floor. He also presents an aspect to our game that we do not normally have and that is the ability to hit mid range shots, consistently from one individual player. He can handle the ball and he can play off the ball. In short, he's a jack of all trades but breaks the trend because he actually can excel at all. What do you guys think of him and any suggestions of how we can approach the Celtics to bring him to NY? I'd be willing to move Crawford for him and if not, a package built around David Lee.
