Nunn, per sources, is among the guards who have been on the Knicks’ radar as they consider their offseason plans. Nunn shot 38.1 percent from beyond the arc on nearly six attempts per game this season and shot it remarkably well in the second half of the season. One member of an opposing organization analyzing the market drew a comparison between the 25-year-old Nunn and Terry Rozier, who averaged nine points per game in his last season with the Celtics before signing a three-year, $56 million deal with Charlotte. Rozier’s role increased. His production also increased. The opposing team thought Nunn, who averaged 14.6 points per game last year, could follow a similar path if his opportunities increased.

What could the market be for Nunn? The Athletic’s John Hollinger recently wrote that Nunn should command a contract in the 15 million per year range.

I'm wary of him for a few reasons, especially the fact the Heat benched him a couple of times, and didn't seem to want to play him in either playoffs (and he had poor shooting stats in them)

Can You Increase the Size of Your Hands?

https://www.healthline.com/health/can-you-increase-the-size-of-your-hands

They both have small hands. Which indicates they are untrustworthy. Like Hobbits. Because in the Shire, they have tiny hands. Hobbits will walk into your kitchen, steal a yogurt out of your fridge than immediately declare they are too high class to eat the fruit at the bottom.

OK, so it will come down to cost. If the Knicks can get either or both at a good price, they can both help. Nunn is very very very streaky.

Though I suspect if the Knicks make a move, it will be for Gary Trent Jr and/or Talen Horton-Tucker.

How are you doing Briggs? You doing OK, brother? I'm doing well. But I was born ridiculously handsome so that simplifies so much in my life. Sometimes I feel like I have the world in the palm of my hands. But since they are so large, I could easily fit two worlds. OK, maybe one planet, one designated comet catcher and one star going super nova.

I have a lot of love in my heart you, Briggs. Even with your tiny ass hands. And no one loves this team more than you do. I should send you a pair of gloves for Xmas. Three sizes too large of course. When you try them on, just keep shouting, "You MUST ACQUIT! You MUST ACQUIT!" and everything will magically will convert into it's proper path towards destiny.

He is also can score on and off ball. He’s reminiscent of Terry Rozier like that and plays in a system where a wing and Big (Jimmy and Bam) spend a lot of time as ball handlers.

It makes sense. I don’t think Miami will match a $16 Mil deal, they just gave up assets for Oladipo to be the starting PG and need to pay him and keep Duncan. Keep in mind Miami has done stupid **** before like matching Tyler Johnson but that did bite them in the ass.

If Nunn becomes consistent that is a fair deal.

The main goal is to have at least 35-30 Mil to offer Lavine or Beal in 2022.

You’re funny man. Yes. I was born a midget. I need a phone book on my drivers seat just to see over the steering wheel. We can’t all be 6-4 and handsome like you👀

But getting back to hoops. I think nunn and Holmes wouod give us a much needed athletic lift. Key is still Julius and Rj but adding in scorers/ athletes will help them! Small hands and all

Can we start spelling his name correctly? It's "Richaun" not Richard.

Nunn is a good option, but would need to be paired with a star wing.

Ideally we would be going after Lavine or Beal in 22.

Nunn
Lavine/Beal
RJ
Randle
Mitch

Is a pretty good starting 5. The shooting from the back court would make the lives of RJ and Randle a lot easier.

All Dicks tend to have small hands. You can't blame him for going in that direction.


The Knicks can get a functional pivot for not a ton of cap space, that's the reality. They need 3 And D Wings. I like Holmes quite a bit but they have to actually consider spending where league trends lie.

Yep though I’m not going to lie grabbing a big D&3 wing to mix and match and letting RJ play more with a bench squad of Rose, IQ, and Obi.... would be even more ideal.

At this point I just want to ask one question. How good is Kendrick in PnR? If he is at least average then I welcome him with open arms. If he is not I don't want him.

If we sign Holmes, are we letting Noel go and bringing Mitch off the bench?

This is my thesis with Holmes

You get rim protection BUT you also get an offensive player capable of 15-17 points legit AND a good passer.I think mitch as back up is about right. That would give us a more athletic more diverse 5 position. I also want to use one of our picks on Charles bassey.


Kendrick nunn( at the right price) along with Holmes gives the team an athletic boost that we don’t have. The star is Randle
But taking pressure off him is ncluding reduced minutes is key

We don’t have a player like this— it’s a huge upgrade at a position valued by thibs

So who are you going to ask to come off the bench, Holmes or Mitch? Remember when Mitch posted something semi-cryptic on social media when Thibs had Noel starting for a couple of games when he returned from his first injury this season? Would Holmes come here for a bench role? Would Mitch be OK coming off the bench?

I’m open to mitch as a back up or trading him either to move up ⬆️ n the draft or an nba sf. So many avenues. But Holmes would start
