Yep, he's Bledsoe 2.0.

That outta make Inf nice and happy Lol

There haven't been many picks more futile than Ennis. It was absurd the very second Masai Ujiri didn't bite. And now that finally there was an open spot for a third PG he is gone too. What a waste.

[INFORMER]

Brandon Knight was almost an all-star this yr.

He's having a very good season, but the "almost an all-star" claim to fame is a little lame. Making the all-star team in the east is nothing to write home about, and almost making it is not even worth mentioning.

And recall, I wanted to sign and trade Bledsoe for him in the offseason. We should have done that.

Agreed.

Chriss Broussard is so brutal. He can't say Dragic's name correctly. So Brutal.

I don't think he's like Bledsoe at all. Bledsoe could only dream of shooting 40% from 3.

Not sure it matters, but both Bledsoe and B.Knight are Kentucky guys; may mean that they'll have better chemistry together on the court.

I meant it as more of a athletic combo guard who can defend, but whatevs.

[INFORMER]

How long before Knight wants to be the main PG again?

I don't think that will happen. Knight isn't a pure point guard. He very much is a combo guard, and I think he's better suited to play with Bledsoe than Goran was.

... I knew I was wise to hold off on buying Nba 2k till after the deadline.

The Archie Goodwin era has begun!

LOL!

Question for the masses, assuming Knight and Bledsoe stay together (as well as healthy), is that a backcourt that can take us anywhere?

[TOO]

Will we keep Granger/Thornton? We still have no room for Warren or Goodwin, bah.

[Ring_Wanted]

I am mildly surprised PJ Tucker is still on the team.

Sit their asses on the bench.

IMO the main problem will be on defense. Knight is only 6'3" and Bledsoe's much lauded defense has slipped a bit in the past year. I think they'd struggle stopping elite backcourts. But offensively I think they'll be a pretty good fit, since Knight is a very good shooter and seems to be a willing passer as well.

[iLLmatic]

So Knight doesn't like playing the off-guard...I felt like we already went through this??

[Wally_West]

Any chance we waive granger, thornton or Salmons?

I'll bet he's mildly surprised at his BAC everyday.
