Who's going to be worse: Cleveland or LA? Because essentially the Suns just traded one for the other.
Trendon Watford. Please and thank you.

That is stupid fuckin reasoning if that's what's going through their brains.

Besides the Laker pick, which I agree is a huge deal, Brandon Knight is better then Isiah Thomas IMO and was very close to being an all-star.

The fact that people are mad at him coming over saying "no more guards" do realize we just traded 3 of our guards right?

No. He's a chucker and he can't shoot. I hope they bury him and don't give him any minutes.

*In the East. But yes, he is good (just not a pure PG, but that's not a problem to us, of course).

He needs a new contract this summer, though.

Knight is probably the 2nd best player who was traded today after Dragic.
I have not seen enough of Knight lately, because I don't think much of him at this point. Good backup, that's it, IMO.

He's waaaaaaayyyyy better than a back up. He is also 23.

Just saw his percentages, doesn't seem so bad.
I'm still trying to figure all out.

That's quite a severe take on him. There isn't much difference between Knight and Bledsoe.

Knight is much better than a backup IMO. Very unhappy if the Lakers pick is gone. My head is spinning trying to work out what has happened - some crazy shit going down

He's a streaky 3pt shooter, much like Green. He can shoot.
