via the NY Post’s Marc Berman
According to a person familiar with the Knicks’ thinking, the club will explore trading Wilson Chandler, possibly packaging him with the expiring contract of Eddy Curry. The Knicks would love to trade for a premier outside-shooting big man.
Chandler, who has had ankle surgery two straight offseasons, has a contract the Knicks likely will move to be enough under the 2011 salary cap for a maximum contract. The addition of versatile forward Anthony Randolph and swingman Kelenna Azubuike makes Chandler more expendable for a roster lacking size. The Knicks don’t believe Chandler can handle shooting-guard duties.

An NY Update
- Eddy Curry and his ailing knees will be sidelined for the next month & a half.
- Former Knick and the king of Ustream shenanigans Stephon Marbury will be lacing up his Starbury sneaks in China.
- Nate Robinson looks to be the first three-time dunk champion if he can end up beating out Shannon Brown, Gerald Wallace and Demar DeRozan (Eric Gordon, I don’t think so). He also scored 27 points off the bench in the Knicks comeback victory against the Pistons.
- Mike D’Antoni doesn’t find Larry Hughes very amusing.
