Can we get Wilson Chandler for Melo? That would be dope.

I would rather Lin than Anderson or Turner.

This franchise was always obsessed with Faried for some reason. Maybe fourth team is Denver and Faried come to NY?

I was wondering if Denver could be the 4th team. Watch it be a team no one had a clue about though.

I mean age is literally the only factor in why you take Russell over Lin. Sure, Russell was the #2 pick, has a flashy game, but right now, objectively speaking, Lin is the better basketball player. If he wasn't 28 and Russell 20, it would be debatable. Last year Lin had better numbers in assists, rebounds, FG%, FT%, 3p% and assist to turnover ratio. He was injured and he's 8 years older, so that's why you take probably take Russell, but it's for potential, not what he is now. Russell is overrated by some on this board, he just hasn't been very good at all. Sure the Lakers had to dump Mosgov's contract, but Magic couldn't wait to get rid of Russell.

Magic couldn't wait to dump Mozgov's contract. I agree that Lin was the better player last year, but in terms of where the Knicks are at Russell makes so much more sense.

Potential, upside, and salary are "literally" other factors than age.

Yes when I said age I obviously meant potential that comes with being young. I just made the comparison in case anyone thought Russell is actually the better player now, which he's not. I am also more down on Russell than most here. I just don't see a very good player, and he doesn't strike me as the kind of guy we should have around our unselfish, rebuilding team. He's slow, his jump shot stinks, he doesn't play defense, and he seems to think he's a lot better than he really is. I was never high on him coming out of college either. The new Steph Curry was laughable to me. It's all moot anyway because BK is clearly not moving him.

Sup guys, first time poster here. Love the forums.

I'm wondering if the suns may be the 4th team. Something like:

NYK: Knight, Harkless, some type of pick/asset

HOU: Melo

Portland: Anderson

Suns: Leonard, maybe Quarterman or someone else

My reasoning: doesn't seem like we're gonna sign any vet PG, and I doubt they want Baker starting. I don't think they can get anyone that can change the team in FA in the next few years, so by 2020, we could be a rising team and have a ton of space to add. For this season:

Knight/Frank or Baker
Hardaway/ Frank or Baker/ Dotson
Lee / Hark / Thomas
KP / Thomas / O'Quinn
WHG / O' Quinn / Noah

And just saying: I'm by no means saying this is what I want to happen, just maybe could be the deal in the end.
