Wasn't there a Bledsoe + Suns pick at 11 or 12 or whatever rumor floating around at the time?

Thank the friggin' lord we didn't pull the trigger on that or any deal. Imagine how heartbroken we'd all be seeing KP explode on any other team. Another one that got away (Curry).

Yup...that was something being thrown around at the time...and he's not that old.

If you want to play around with this kind of scenario...

Trade #4 for Bledsoe and Sun's pick

Draft Booker with Sun's pick

Trade THJ and take Portis (who we worked out, I think) with pick #19

EnySpree: Can we agree to agree not to mention Phil Jackson and triangle for the rest of our lives?

Not that old but with two major knee injuries already on his odometer. I wouldn't be mad if the Knicks to take a chance on him now as a buy low kinda acquisition. But for KP it would've been a disaster In hindsight (though he may not have hurt his knee as a Knick).

Who the F knows?
