OK, is this Shumpert guy the real deal?

I keep hearing alot about him, but I know how Knicks fans can be about their players.....

From: New York Times

Shumpert thrills Knicks Fans by just checking into the game

New York Times

The cheers begin when he rises from the bench, swell in a joyous, raucous crescendo as he reaches midcourt and explode into an all-out roar when his toes cross the sideline.

Iman Shumpert can run, shoot, dunk, pass, defend, but he can cause near euphoria with the simple act of checking into a game at Madison Square Garden.

“I can hear it,” Shumpert said. “It’s nice.”

Knicks fans have engaged in their share of irrational love affairs in recent years, falling for undisciplined exuberance (Nate Robinson), unbridled athleticism (Renaldo Balkman) and plucky overachievement (Landry Fields), only for their hearts to be crushed.

Lol @ those fans.

So he could basically be as good as a Nate Robinson caliber, or as average as Renaldo Balkman.

He looks like the real deal. In a few games that I saw him, I was very impressed.

Ryan's been very efficient for us. That's hard for me to give up. I'd like to grab one of the very strong defensive wings this off-season. Tony Allen or Gerald Wallace for example, if either player is available. That's a bigger need for us than improving playmaking or dribble penetration.

Nets-Grizzlies talks included scenarios for Anthony Morrow and a pick for O.J. Mayo, but discussions have lost traction, sources tell Y!

The Nets really want to please Howard, lol. Oh wait Howard likes Morrow!!!!

Howard to the Grizzlies! Kidding. There are some players out there that want out and he's on the list. Mayo, SJax, Andre Miller, Mo Williams are a few guys that would do better on new teams.

The Nets getting OJ should entice Dwight to move to Brooklyn even more imo. I believe if placed in the right situation, OJ can average 20 ppg. D-Will/OJ/Hump/Dwight would actually be better than what they would have with Morrow imo. I don't see why we can't get Mayo though. We could use players that can create their own shot.

If I had to trade Dwight, I'd take that deal plus 2-3 1st rd picks.

Can draft Jeremy Lamb and Harrison Barnes if you get 2 or more 1st rd picks.

Knight/Meer
Lamb/JJ
Turk/Barnes
Ryno/BBD
Monroe/Clark
