Keeping an eye on the NBA and Seattle's efforts to get back into the game

With the February trade deadline looming, Seattle point guards Luke Ridnour and Earl Watson's names have been involved in trade rumors.

The latest has the New York Knicks possibly interested in Ridnour, with guard Stephon Marbury opting to have surgery to remove bone spurs in his left ankle.

Also, ESPN's Chris Sheridan has Wally Szczerbiak as a potential person for the Sonics to trade before the deadline for expiring contracts because teams might be interested in adding another shooter.

Says Sheridan: "He (Szczerbiak) makes $12 million this season and $13 million next season, and he can still shoot it. If the Sonics could get him off their cap along with Earl Watson (two more years at $6.2M and $6.6M) in one fell swoop, they'd likely do it if they could get back expiring contracts and some kind of sweetener. Jason Williams, Dorell Wright and Ricky Davis for Wally and Watson is said to be in the works, by the way. And Miami could sweeten it with one or all of the three second-round picks it has in the upcoming draft (its own, Philadelphia's and Indiana's)."
