The internet roasted thus idea calling Phil stupid as usual. Thing is its a negotiation. Counter offers are given. Pheonix has players we can use aside from Booker.

Because it is stupid. Devin Booker is not a good basketball player; he makes no positive contribution on the court. So we'd be trading KP for the #4 pick, that's insane. BRIGGS' trade idea was better and that's a terrible trade.

Let's say they tell Phil they would do it if they include Hernangomez or swap Willy for Bender.

I do this trade in a heart beat. I love KP as do everyone here. But his behavior since the season has ended demonstrates to me anyway a guy who has gotten a big head. I am not hankering to trade him but if they can get this kind of package bye KP

Everyone's behavior here turns bad eventually. I wonder why?

KP is a squeaky clean and near perfect prospect for this franchise and already the fans and lunatic gm are entertaining notions of moving on. I'd be speechless if I wasn't so mad at some of the fans who can't see what's really wrong here. It isn't KP!!! I can't even imagine the crap going on at msg behind closed doors and neither can you. Just know it's a circus. That I am certain of and whether you want to admit it or not you are too. We all know it. Dolan and jackson together is An Unholy abomination. This frickin franchise needs an exorcism and an enema, in that order.

Yeah, trade KP. Just great. He's the problem here. Sure he is.

KP is an asset that has a certain with a certain wetware value.

No one is assuming he's a problem - no one.

However, if you are in full-tilt rebuild mode as the Knicks are you take an inventory and valuation of your team and where you want it to go.

KP is not an untouchable. If PHX is offering Booker (an established rising star) AND a great lottery pick the Knicks have just reduced their needs by one.

KP may eventually become a star but he's not yet and may never be. Its just business. It ain't about Phil or the front office or anything else. Its about building a better team.

Take Josh Jackson and a fair deal of what ever other assets are reasonable not to kill it. I like KP wanted to draft him but he is not Jackson can be. This is not the Ny Melos or the Ny KPs-- this is the Knicks. If we traded w the Celtics for 1 I would've taken Jackson and if available at 2 or 3 and we can get that pick-- then go for it-- you'll be glad you did

I disagree because there has never been anyone like KP ever he's a taller Kevin Durant ... he's only 21 years old has endless range ... when KP realizes he can't be stopped and is the focal point of the offense he'll probably become the best player in the NBA ...

Phil was right to ask phx for the moon because he knows KP is going to be unstoppable... he asked for the next Kobe and the number 4 ... he's not going to budge ...

If Boston calls he'll want the # 3, brown, issah, and a future first ...

This. If Phil really asked for this then he is even dumber than I thought but what makes it worse is that Phx said no. Now, what would be ingenious on Phx part would be if they know its a good deal for them but think Phil will add more pieces to get it done.

Let's say they tell Phil they would do it if they include Hernangomez or swap Willy for Bender.

We both know that's not happening.

At the same time Booker could easily be moved to Orlando for that #6 pick and probably their #25 pick. Sac might be dumb enough to give up #5 and #10 for him.

Knicks could get Issac at 4, Tatum at 6, and either Smith or Frank at 8.

Come on the Suns wouldn't trade Booker straight up for KP-- would you?

Booker gets buckets. But his efficiency is poor and his defense is horrible. 3TOs to his 3ast for a SG. He is extremely young though so he can improve on these areas. But KP is a waaaay harder to find player then Booker.

Booker is straight trash homey. Of course you do that trade if you are the suns. His best atribute is shooting and he barely shoot 3s better than KP.

I can't imagine how bad PHX's front office must be if they turned down that trade.

well Booker can go for 70 on any given night. lol.

With Booker even if he doesn't turn into a good defender he has to be a more efficient scorer. That's going to be the staple of his game.
