How bad did the Knicks want Chris Paul? Well apparently, they were willing to part ways with Amare Stoudemire to acquire CP3, until New Orleans swiftly rejected the deal.
What a difference one year and a lot of hype can make, as STAT was once deemed the saviour of NYC basketball when he first arrived via free agency. Stoudemire still has $84 million remaining on his 4-year uninsurable deal.
