Rolo for Eric Bledsoe

Go after al hortford or derozn or Kevin Durant in free agency


Kp
Melo
Derozen or al or Durant
Bledsoe

That core with any of the 3 fa's would be a incredible off season. It's a pretty good pipe dream but Rolo is boosting his value big time and we need a backcourt bad

Have we not learned the dangers of pinning our hopes on free agents coming here, especially the prizes (Durant, Horford) of free agency. Better to build a foundation, than starting at the roof.

Horrible trade unless the Suns send picks to the Knicks to take him.

Explain that cuz the suns already had Rolo on the roster once before. So they would have to trade draft picks in order to move one of the most athletic PG's on both sides of the ball(and injury prone yes) in the league?

So what should the Knicks do then?

I don't see the trade as risky. Bledsoe is always hurt but the chance to get a talent lIke his is a good risk. Phoenix already has Alex Len who's getting better but they signed Tyson chandler last summer as well. Hard to see them making that move

Yea they would have to move one of those guys in Len and Tyson. But with the way kp can play the 5 and how bad our backcourt is right now. Rolo should be used as a chip to upgrade our backcourt. there are more valuable front court free agents then valuable backcourt free agents .

We can't afford to strike out in free agency for our backcourt and re live Jose for another year.We can afford to strike out on our front court free agents. Melo and kp is already a good core and if we struck out on al we could always go cheap like a hibbert for a year or two while we prep kp for the 5 .

Only words I wanna see on Steve mills and Phils chalkboard is WE NEED A POINT GUARD!!!!

I feel you on the idea.

You mentioned Atlanta and the possibility of Horford leaving.... you think Atlanta would take Rolo back for Teague? That kinda makes sense of they lose Horford.
