To me this would have to include both Miami picks Derrick Jones JR and take back Noah

While I'd prefer to not trade KP, I was open to some of the previous Suns deals mentioned (eg Chriss or Booker and #4 for KP). If this is the deal that goes through - I would really have to say that Phil is worse then Isiah at knowing how to trade. The rumors are that he likes JJ, who may be taken at 3 by the Celts anyway. Eric Bledsoe is not the type of guard for the triangle, as he's a scoring point with injury history. Why swap 8 for 4, thought the point was to acquire a starter and a pick... Really hope this is just talk as even if KP burned down Phil's house - this is just uncalled for and a bad deal!!

Fake Twitter or not, if the Knicks got this offer. I'd say they should take it.

Thoughts...

1) The Knicks are not getting Chriss or Booker plus the 4, they are just not. I recognize Booker has some question marks about his game, but he's a young wing and he can create his own shot at will. He's only, IMHO, scratched the surface of his true skill set.

2) Bledsoe has played for Hornacek before, and Bender is a 19 year old who will operate as a Stretch 5, which fits what Hornacek tries to do with his big men. If 4 ends up Jayson Tatum, I think this is a functional deal.

3) The Knicks need a point guard, they need someone to replace Zinger and Melo and this deal might do it.

4) If the alternative is to eventually lose Zinger for nothing down the road, this might not be a bad workaround.

5) It's not if you want to trade Zinger, its about if there is no choice at some point. If he doesn't want to be here, then move him on.

6) As stated before, I think some guys here have a seriously inflated view of Zinger's actual market value. He's an interesting prospect, he's got a lot of upside, but the hauls some of you are demanding are really over the top against the NBA marketplace.

It's an interesting trade scenario.

I do find some irony in that when Briggs throws some random BS against a wall, he'll tell everyone why they are stupid for not agreeing with him.

But if it's someone else throwing it against the wall, how dare they? Haha. #HerdingCats

I'd prefer to not trade the 8. Let them keep Bender...Bledsoe is nice but he always gets hurt at some point. But if I had to take him and the deal shaped up to being Bledsoe, Warren, and the 4 for Noah, Porzingis, and maybe the second rounders......That is something I am open to....

Says some iterations of trade have Knicks getting Chriss, Bender, and the 4. According to Bagley.

I'm not inherently opposed to trading KP but every proposal I've read is terrible. I'm not interested in Booker and I'm not giving up KP just bail Phil out of the Noah mistake. If I were Dolan, I'd get rid of Phil before getting rid of KP.
