Only way I'm dealing Shump to Phoenix is if they do this:

Shump, Thomas, Brewer

For

Dudley, O'Neal, Suns' 2013 1st round pick

And that will never happen cause the Suns aren't that dumb..

There's not good matchup. Knicks need assets now, not picks. Shump is a necessary piece, why would we trade him for a future asset? And Dudley and future #1 doesn't make sense for us.

You're overrating Shump. Shump's best case is Tony Allen with an offensive game. We'd get Dudley who is a very underrated player in this league, & a potentially top 6 pick in next years draft. We'd have a shot at Shabazz freaking Muhammed.

I love Shump & the only way I'm doing this deal is if the Suns send us their pick this coming draft.

felton might be better than dragic on O. but dragic is a much better defender, felton is one of the worst PG defender in the league, he is the main reason why knicks penetration defense is one of the worst in the league.

When I first saw this topic my thought was, "Why would a team at the bottom of their conference make it a priority to get a defensive roleplayer guard?" The best case scenario for Shumpert is that he develops into a Tony Allen-type, why would a team with as many holes as Phoenix make him the focus?

Then looking into this topic I'm seeing all these Knick fans acting like PHX doesn't have the assets to make it work. Really? Career, he averages 8.9 points on 39%. He's a very good defender but that doesn't make a player untouchable, especially when the player isn't a big. Phoenix is on pace for a lottery pick, why would you turn down that package? And Dragic isn't worth Shumpert? I'd agree that with Felton (and Kidd) NY doesn't need Dragic but Dragic is more valuable than Shumpert right now.

Whatever though, these kinds of rumors normally come to nothing anyhow.

So would you trade Avery Bradley for Dudley? NO? Neither would we trade Shump. You don't trade young assets for journeyman players. Yes, Shump hasn't done much because it's only his second year. You are quoting stats like he's played years.

As far as Dragic, etc. that's just delusional people saying delusional things. It has nothing to do with this trade. Neither is Phoenix offering us their pick next year, unless its protected up the ass.

I never mentioned Dudley. I only talked about Dragic and the lottery pick that your "delusional people" were valuing Shumpert over. As for the stats quoted, note that I acknowledged he can become a better player, setting his ceiling at Tony Allen's level. TA is a solid starter.

Shumpert can be become as good defensively as Tony Allen and is already a better offensive player, so he is probably going to be a bit better than Tony Allen

I've seen little difference there. Neither guy has much skill, maybe Shumpert surpasses him if he comes back from the surgery well but even the loss of athleticism to injury reminds me of Allen.

That's only because you have no idea what you're talking about.



I think Shumpert can be a 13ppg scorer and 3-4 assist guy next year from the 2/3 position. I could see him becoming a consistent 15-16ppg guy and about 5 assist if given that type of role. Decision making on when to shoot and when to pass is the only thing preventing him from being a pg/combo guard type... I've thought of him as a SG type that could convert to a pg with better decision making...much like Billups had to develop over his career. He's a talented passer, very good slasher, and he's developed his jumpshot since maybe the all star break of his rookie season. And was arguably a better defender last year than Tony Allen as a rookie.

He's really shown that he can truly do it all, and is a very aggressive guy with leadership ability (still very young though, on a veteran team)...as he fully recovers from the ACL surgery next year I think he's ready to break out. While I feel like the Knicks are going to be able to re-sign JR for the MLE...I personally think JR does and will stunt his production. But to say Iman Shumpert doesn't have very much skill is ridiculous...he's got very good handles and passing ability...and not just a catch and shoot player, actually has a pull up that he successfully uses in one on one and transition situations.

And a bottom-dweller like Phoenix trading first round picks for him after just returning from ACL surgery, says they see it too. The Knicks shooting that down, says more.

It's not gonna happen. Stephen A Smith said at the beginning of the season, before Iman returned, that Knicks front office sees Iman as the Knicks 2nd best perimeter player after Carmelo. Considering that includes JR Smith who many thought should've been an all star ( I disagree) and Raymond Felton (who I think would've been an allstar this year had he not gotten hurt for a month)....that says something. Worst case, I see this guy as the ultimate role player, very smart and a hard worker.

The raptors fans on ish act like you couldn't give Bargnani away for an expirer. And it's probably true about fields. And then to top it off they say derozen now has negative trade value because of his 10 mill per season deal starting next year. That's the reason I think this trade is great because this is what they claim they are asking for.

Suns want shumpert 2.0? Can't be done. Suns are trying to take advantage to the fact that Shump is playing like crap right now.

If the pick was unproteced i would think about it, Suns probably are offering a protected pick so no.

Kinda strange move for the Suns imo, Shumpert is good no doubt but hes had both his knees operated on already and would be a big risk. If I were the Suns I'd keep both the pick and Dudley for now. I don't think the move makes much sense for the Knicks ethier tbh they going to need Shumpert in the playoffs big time to defend some of the top wings/guards.

Shumpert has hit threes in the short sample of this season but has shot 34% overall so far this season. Shumpert is about athleticism, Billups was not. Comparing him to Billups doesn't make sense. "Talented passer?" Based on what? He's not a point guard now and never will be.

I admit I don't pay enough attention to him to notice something like that but I'd bet money that NY's leaders are Kidd and Chandler, maybe STAT, maybe Melo.


And a bottom-dweller like Phoenix trading first round picks for him after just returning from ACL surgery, says they see it too. The Knicks shooting that down, says more.You can't validate that at all. It's a rumor. Woj says they were offered Dudley and 1 future first.

No I'm not. The best perimeter defender with an offensive game sounds like what to you? Shumpert will be an all-star and there isn't any one particularly impressive in this draft. Smart, maybe, and I don't want him over Shumpert. I have no interest in Shabazz. Besides, isn't he a 3? I think we have one of those.


Shumpert is going to be a better defender than Tony Allen. And he's going to be a scorer. Why would I want to trade him for a pick? No.

Shump is not a role player. Avery Bradley is not near the player Shumpert is. The only comparison is their defense and Bradley is a better spot-up shooter. Shumpert can handle the ball, run some point, he can score. And he's going to score.

Suns would have to give up something substantial because it wouldn't make sense to trade Shump, he's one of the few perimeter lockdown defenders in the league and the Knicks backcourt isn't getting any younger.

this would be an extremely stupid move either way you look at it, there is nothing PHX could offer that would justify a trade.

I've never seen more rhetorical bullshit in one post.

What, you want some stat to prove the guy can pass? Why don't you watch a ****ing game. You bring up his fg% for this season, then say his 40+% 3pt percentage doesn't matter? Not knowing that so far he's been primarily a 3pt shooter....because....drumroll....you haven't watched games.

And it's not just a rumor that the Suns want him. He was the piece they wanted back in order for Nash to become a Knick last off season...they've always wanted him....and who cares if its a future first? The Suns are lottery bound for quite sometime my friend.

And the Billups comparison has everything to do with having to develop decision making, not the only thing that you know about in this entire argument...that Iman Shumpert is athletic.

What, you want some stat to prove the guy can pass? Yes. When we claim a player is a good passer we can normally point to his apg being in some way better than the norm for a player at his position, even if we are forced to base it on some kind of per minute ratio.
Why don't you watch a ****ing game. Ironically, I'm watching a Knicks game right now. For the record, I don't think it's indicative of what he can d when fully healthy, but I'm not sure what his new normal will be post-op.
You bring up his fg% for this season, then say his 40+% 3pt percentage doesn't matter? Not knowing that so far he's been primarily a 3pt shooter....because....drumroll....you haven't watched games.Most of his shots have been 2s actually. And you didn't get the point I was making: If someone says his current three percentage is indicative of his shooting ability then they can't ignre his overalll FG %age for this season. That's why I talk about the career 39 instead of the current 34. Both of which numbers don't indicate a good shooter.


And it's not just a rumor that the Suns want him. He was the piece they wanted back in order for Nash to become a Knick last off season...they've always wanted him....and who cares if its a future first? The Suns are lottery bound for quite sometime my friend. So you're using one unsubstantiated rumor to back up another? Nice. Is every rumor we read about online true now? And of course it's important that it's a future first, every season we see teams go from the lottery to the playoffs. Any number of trades, signings or unexpected player developments could happen to make a team better than it was. Plus we have no idea what protections would be put on this future first. It's just a rumor after all.


And the Billups comparison has everything to do with having to develop decision making, not the only thing that you know about in this entire argument...that Iman Shumpert is athletic.The Billups comparison is just stupid. Shumpert isn't a point guard and isn't going to be one. Even if he had the aptitude (and he doesn't, it's not his natural position) how is he going to learn to be one when NY is playing him at SG? He's just going to figure it out playing streetball on his own?

It's just a rumor after all.

The Billups comparison is just stupid. Shumpert isn't a point guard and isn't going to be one. Even if he had the aptitude (and he doesn't, it's not his natural position) how is he going to learn to be one when NY is playing him at SG? He's just going to figure it out playing streetball on his own?


Wow...bunch of rhetoric. Our initial discussion is about his skills, not a rookie's production in what was a lockout shortened season and a year where he's 12 games back from ACL surgery. He played a lot of pg in college, D'antoni started him there last year too. :facepalm. You say he can't shoot, then base the argument on his 2pt and overall fg%...ignoring his current 3pt %...we already know he can slash and finish...more so when healthy.

And assists don't prove if a guy can pass...you seem to have no idea of role definition. I said he's a talented passer, because I've SEEN him making a lot of talented passes. There's a lot of guys who aren't flashy, or talented passers that can give you assist numbers because of their role...and vice versa.

If you knew what you were talking about you'd know that right now he's actually playing SF, and Woodson wants him running a lot more pick and rolls. There's a possibility he can become their backup pg. Not playing streetballl hahaha...great joke

I think he's right..you really do overrate Shump. I like him, but I don't think he's going to be as great as you're making him out to be.



He will be. Next season.



They want him, but they won't be getting him. Simple as that.

I would like to pat myself on the back for magnanimously not calling out anyone for the things they had to say to me in this thread. I'm such a great guy.

Wouldn't trade Shump at all. If there was any chance I would consider it, the package would have to look something like Dudley, Keef Morris and a 1st. If they don't want to negotiate, goodbye.


:oldlol: :oldlol:




Its amazing that the Suns basically turned around and traded Dudley to the Clippers for a much better player than Shumpert.
