Sources: Clippers are talking deal for Knicks' Iman Shumpert

What do you guys think?

Shump + Felton for Collison + Green + Bullock. Get'er done.

It has gotten this bad that Shump can only net you Darren Collison, a guy the clippers signed as a back up this past offseason.

If Shump goes to Clippers I would imagine we'd get Collison and 1 of either Dudley or Barnes.

We're gonna regret trading Shump for a minor upgrade.

collison is so mediocre. nothing exciting about this, and we'd hate him a couple games in as our starter. dude can't pass.

Don't like this at all.

Merge this into the main thread so that people wanting updates have to read 20 pages.

But seriously I'm alright with this, I like Bullock more than I like Shumpert and Collison over Felton is a no brainer in terms of contract and play as well actually.

I could see Shump fitting in nicely over there with a competent coach. He could really blossom. I'd hope theres a pick coming but at this point whatever.

Knicks would also have to get Redick, Crawford, or Dudley's contract to make it work. I guess Barnes would make it work financially as well.

Bullock has more promise than Shumpert imo and Collison is an upgrade over Felton because he is off the books in 2015, so hardly a minor upgrade.

The same Collison that even Jeremy Lin was torching? No thanks.

This could explain why, Woodhead held them out for the finish last night. :dontknow:

This one may have legs.

Compared to the other point guards the Knicks have been in "talks" with Collison is minor.

Make them take JR also for a 2015 expiring and its a deal.

This deal is bad and the team should feel bad for talking about it.

You've got to give up on the faint hope of being successful this season and then it's a good deal

Hoopshype has a player option for him next year.

We better get back more than Collison for Shump or else this will be a big mistake.

Yeah so he might even be off the books next season, either way he's gone by the big FA, or we can keep him on a similar deal to be our back up.
