    I believe Boute and Tucker take mostly Corner 3s. Ariza is 3s all over.

    Maybe so. Maybe so
    But YOLO tried to say that Ariza is MILES ahead of Moute and Tucker offensively.
    I just don't see it (neither do the numbers show it). But apparently he's got it all figured out in his mind

    Ariza has NO handles, can't create his own shot, and largely shoots jumpers (which are mostly ineffective).
    But I don't have a good BB IQ according to YOLO so I'll let him have his day.
    TREVOR FOR MVP!!

    Houston confirmed

    Portland fans are as delusional about this as some folks here were last summer about us getting KD.

    Portland fans are annoying as **** and have massive insecurity complexes.

    MY bad. I see that the stat I used from NBA.com was for Toronto only.
    Tucker - 33.8% from 3 in PHX and 40% in Toronto.
    But doesn't that show if he's on a better team with more weapons and better looks he is going to be MORE effective?
    His transition from PHX to Toronto sure seems to show that ;)

    It's cute that they think they are getting Melo, but they aren't lol. I'm not even sure we are getting Melo.

    Only way I would trade Ariza is for a younger player with upside, an Aaron Gordon type player who can rim run, handle the ball & defend 3/4/5. Otherwise, why bother? This team has been re-built to win now, as in this season.

    Saw this trade on a Knicks blog and thought the price was pretty steep though it makes sense for what the Knicks are giving up. Does anyone think Morey would do this deal?

    Losing Ariza is made bearable by our recent signings of Tucker and Mbah. I still rather just go into the season with Anderson than losing Ariza, CC, or Ego though.
