Is there anyone around here that would still defend that Knight trade as a good one? Or even one that wasn't completely awful?
Do you mean like when Bledsoe has the ball? Or Knight? If you want to make him the point guard, then he can control things. I do agree that he needs to shoot much better, and he needs to stop putting up shots just to put them up.
When he touches the ball, he needs to perform whether we are down big or not. So far, it doesn't feel that way.

And several of us KNEW it was a horrible trade from the moment it was announced. At no point was it ever even close to being a good idea. Ugh.

He looked pretty good against the Spurs. Carried us to a win.
Love, Hurts.

Completely agree. He did that from the start and kept it going all game, despite them trying to stop him. Very impressive.
