Hearing Kyle Lowry has lots of interest in playing for #Knicks. Felton injury doesn't help.

Lowry is better. I don't think of George Hill as a PG really. And he's not even shooting better than Lowry this year. Lowry is just a better all around player.

Stop it.

If they do not want Shump. Then Felton and a 1st round pick swap is my final offer.

I'd love that...especially if they released Chris Smith an hour after the deal is reported. That would make me a Mills fan...a legit Mills defender.

Cutting ties with the Smith family will give Mills my EoTY vote

I'd petition the team to erect a damn bronze statue if he can get that done.

would help raising it myself :lol:

JR can't be traded until 1/15/14 though right?

Another horrible post. Who in their right mind is trading a first round pick for Shump right now? He's not good. He's bringing almost nothing to the table. And no, it's not Woodson's fault.

The irony of a poster called ShumpShump insulting Shumpert.

Shumpert is a good player who will find his form when he leaves this toxic atmosphere and this coach.

He's proven he can play in this league already. A low first round pick for Shumpert is definitely attainable. Especially when first round picks are given away every year.

You, unfortunately, will still be here hurling insults at everyone and never admitting you're wrong on anything. Heres to many more years of your insults on things you will be wrong about!

Y'all gon learn with Lowry. He's a selfish chucker with a bad attitude. Mever trust the numbers for Toronto point guards. See Mike James, Alvin Williams, Mark Jackson ... their numbers are inflated because Toronto never was an interior scoring team.

Dude, come on. George Hill isn't even a PG. He was a SG in college. He doesn't pass well for a PG, and could barely handle, and he doesn't rebound like Lowry. He might be a slightly better defender, and a better shooter, but this year his shooting has sucked. GTFO with the stop it. George Hill is overrated as s hit playing with 3 All Stars.

How can any player get better when you have no system. just iso melo and iso jr. Get the entire team into the game. It's on Woodson.

last time lowry shot over 42% was 6 years ago. but hey, it's a shiny new toy.

Why don't you look at TS%? The overwhelming proportion of his shots are three pointers, which is a good thing.

Why don't we look at the actual stats and not some fantasy stat like TS%? JR Smith shoots over 50% of his career in TS%, including 52% this season.

Kyle Lowry isn't good but I'm never surprised when I see fans endorsing awful moves because they've done it before for Eddy Curry, Zach Randolph, Steve Francis, Jerome James, JR Smith, etc. This fanbase either never learns from the past or simply enjoys the abuse.

Look, Curtis Axel, TS% is far from a fantasy stat, it's actually a reflection of real shooting percentage, using free throws, 2 pointers, and threes, and accounting for the volume and accuracy that said player all shot them at.

Zero market with sufficient assets. What is BK giving? Tyshaun Taylor? Warriors? Certainly not any of their good young assets so you're left with the Marrese Speights of the world.

Could be a 3 way trade, might even include Barnes. Could be BK's future picks + Plumlee+fillers who knows.

Lowry and Novak

We need Lowry. He can penetrate and get to the rim and foul line. Don't mind giving up a pick. We can't survive 3 weeks without Felton. I like Priggs but I don't think he can play that many minutes. We all saw what happened when the Bulls pressured us last night. Its crucial to get this done.

Harrison Barnes??? for a backup point guard (for them)? Cmon man. BK has no future picks to trade.

George Hill is an anomaly to me. Dude can have a great game one night and the next night he'll barely get his game off the ground. That said, the Pacers are perfect for him because he's a good defender, pretty good shooter and doesn't have to playmake with Lance and Paul George handling that side as much or more than he is.
