    I want Brogdon now that Hill has joined Bledsoe. He doesn't shoot many 3's, but he is an intelligent player. If Knight exceeds expectations, then DM should look for a bigger target along with our 1st rounder. Let's hope for the best.

    Brogdon would be unavailable considering how much the Bucks like him and how high a seeding they are. He is not being difficult and forcing his way out.

    But I see your angle. Who might be a bubble team that is desperate enough to need a point guard and possibly our 1st round pick in return for a serviceable player and their second rounder. That's what I'm hoping for.

    They're long time season ticket holders.

    The 1st rounder should be top 20 protected. Right now, I'm hoping that some team will take a chance on Chriss' youth along with MCW or Hart for a decent vet who can contribute quickly for us. Knight can come later. I acknowledge that it won't be easy to pull it off.

    Would rather seem him flourish and keep him as backup PG
    Need to reduce CP's playing time
    The Black Knight was once an all-star caliber player
    Would be awesome to have James, CP, Gordon and Knight (if he can get back to true form)

    wtf, they never shoot layups?

    By comparison, Rockets are #3 in the league at 55.3%. The teams with the two best records in the league are #1 and #2.

    If Knight shows value he might be a keeper. We are too thin at pg if CP3 goes down. We saw what happened last year :(

    Not saying we would have knocked the Warriors off if we had Knight come in after CP3 was injured, but our chance would have been quite a bit better. Buyout market and picks are probably our best bet at acquiring wing depth.

    Even with that $25,000,000 per season center? Has he been injured?

    I would photochop that one Portland Trailblazer fan guy that was an actor from that lame doctor show onto the smiley(he posted here for a while then got banned), but @Clutch (rightfully) would probably put a dunce cap on me.

    Edit: I should head over to 'Feedback' and suggest dunce caps for punishment of poor posters.

    Who wants to tell the NBA that PJ Tucker has an instagram account they can tag?
