They have traded away their first rounders through 2019. All they have would be a pile of second rounders. I really don't see that they have the horses to make a desirable trade with us. Maybe, once he is eligible to be moved, the Suns could trade Chandler and Knight for Conley (with whatever else is necessary to even it out).

[ShelC]

They just committed 150 mil to Conley, doubt they'd want Knight's deal just to hold the fort down for Conley. And it's not like they're in contention for anything anyway.

Why would the Suns even entertain the idea?

[Mori Chu]

We could do something like Knight for Brandan Wright and Vince Carter (both former Suns). Doesn't give us much value, but Wright and Carter both have 1-2 year contracts and won't chuck the ball 20 times a game.

In the Bucks win over the Cavs, Antetokounmpo had (13-19) 34 pts 12 rbs 5 ast 2 blk and was +20.

[O_Gardino]

The Pels are now 7-4 since that awful start. They really just need one good guard playing with Davis to be dangerous, and right now that's Holiday. If one more player on that roster steps up, they can make the playoffs.

[Mori Chu]

They could really use a Tucker and/or Knight to help them win down the stretch!

Amazing.

How do you guard somebody like that ... he can play every position.

Given the skillset and physical assets, he's incomparable to any NBA player I can remember ...

Maybe a stretched out grant hill (pistons version)?

Starting a team, who do you take Antetekounmpo or Towns?
