I just get this feeling McMully is a smug sore loser and to deal Knight would be admittance of a deal gone bad. Anyway, we got the little chucker and IMO, he will start with Book coming off the bench. The protocol says so. Book started due to injury. And besides... I'd rather see Book run with Ulis, warren and Len in the second unit. Be kind of like that bench we had back with Dragic and Barbososo that at times outplayed the starters or at least steamrolled the oppositions second units.
I just think the value of Knight will go up when you see what Augustin and Lin made. Whether that makes sense to trade him though is another thing. A three guard rotation with a committed Knight as your 6th man is probably better than any trade. If he is not committed and brings down the team, maybe you look to move him. I am torn on Knight
Chandler though - if Whiteside gets all that cash, Howard gets all that cash - I think there is a market for him to allow some cap flexibility, sign a Cole Aldrich and next year, re-up Len.
Yeah, his value goes up but still probably not worth trading for what we could get for him. Well, maybe worth it to me, but probably not to others around here. He will actually have good value probably after next off season if he plays relatively well this season.
