What kind of value would you look for in return with Knight?

Would you be interested in someone like Rudy Gay? Non-expiring talent? Picks? Young talent?


I really wouldn't want to trade Knight at this time. He's had such a poor showing since he landed in Phoenix that I can't believe he'd bring much back in return. I think it makes far more sense to get him healthy and put him on display for awhile so he can bring a reasonable return. However, if someone were to offer a deal similar to what he cost us (an unprotected pick from a really bad team), there's a good chance we'd jump at the deal. But I doubt anyone's willing to give up that much for him right now.


I agree ... keep Knight. Honestly if he accepts a sixth man role he has shown he is capable of putting up numbers as good or better than Jamal Crawford. Nothing wrong with having a player like that off the bench. Every team needs their "Microwave" in the second unit. I imagine his trade value would be so much higher to a team looking to step up to the top tier of the playoff picture, especially with the fact that his contract is really reasonable. Just need to wait and see how he fits into Watson's system.

Suns traded Mikal Bridges, Cam Johnson, Jae Crowder and 4 1st round picks and a swap so some Vegas Bookies would like us.

Knight's arms continue to get bigger. Bender must have been in a trance looking at a hot chick or something.

I feel bad for Bender there. In my mind, he was invited to the hangout, and put on his team gear thinking everyone would be wearing it. Then he shows up and everyone's just in casual gear so he's just standing there awkwardly. Although maybe I'm projecting because that's totally something I'd do :lol:

Everyone except TJ and Barbosa.

And yeah, Knight's arms look huge. Dude has been hitting the weights. Hopefully he learns how to use those arm muscles to pass the ball more.

Knight always looks 'swole' in the offseason then come back to his normal weight in-season.
And he's the odd one in this picture. Just looks like he knows he's not staying here much longer

The Phoenix Suns signed center Gracin Bakumanya, forward Derek Cooke Jr., guard Shaquille Harrison and forward Derrick Jones Jr. on Sunday, bringing their roster to 19 players.

The 6-foot-11 Bakumanya went undrafted as an international early entry candidate. From the Congo, the 19-year-old center played in France last season.

Tyson is also giving an upside down "up yours" and PJ is pointing a gun at the camera with his left hand.
