No trades - the day after in the JSOnlne
The trade that didn't happen (yes!):
Quote:
Those Zach Randolph rumors wouldn't go away, and with good reason.
The Milwaukee Bucks had serious discussions about acquiring the New York Knicks power forward before rejecting a proposed deal that would have brought Randolph and guard Fred Jones to Milwaukee in exchange for guard Charlie Bell, forward Bobby Simmons and center Dan Gadzuric, according to a league source.
The trade deadline passed at 2 p.m. (Milwaukee time) Thursday, with the Bucks staying quiet at the deadline for the third straight year.
Bucks general manager Larry Harris, per team policy, would not comment on any proposed trades.
If the Bucks had made the deal with the Knicks, Milwaukee would have assumed the remaining three years and $48 million or so on Randolph's contract. But it also would have acquired Jones' expiring deal while trading three long-term deals of its own.
