Quote ="Roddy B"Why would the Knicks send Shumpert to Phoenix for Nash? I like Nash, but Shumpert is a scary good defender, whilst he could contribute offensively eventually, IMO. Unless something's gone wrong with his injury that we don't know about, is it really worth it for the Knicks? The improvement they made defensively was one they desperately needed, Shumpert was a big reason for that alongside Chandler, could you really hide Stoudemire, 'Melo and Nash?'"
It's fine, they haven't!
Really didn't think the Lakers rumours would happen, but to be fair they've had to give up a fair amount of Phoenix to facilitate a S+T! Gonna be interesting to see how they blend together now.
I'm also desperately hoping the Nets don't give up everything to go for Howard. I like Lopez (if fit), and I like Humphries. I reckon they'd have a better shot if they signed Illyasova. 3 good bigs there to match with the best guard pairing in the NBA. Hope it works for them, cos otherwise that JJ contract is a huge drain.
