I'm starting to smile a bit although I was hoping Ennis was part of our future.

Brandon Knight is a good young player.

So we turned cap space into two first round picks, and added more space to the pool for substituting IT for Dragic. I loved Dragic, and this isn't a killer deal, but it pushes our team forward and adds to our flexibility. McD made a good trade, considering he was placed into this.

He put himself into this, but he didn't get emotional, and the team in the end benefits. By the time we're ready to challenge for the West, Dragic would probably be on the downside of his career. I don't like that, but it's probably how it would turn out.

I know absent of everything else, I'd rather have Dragic... remember folks I was one of the only ones on here who said Dragic was probably going to be good when we drafted him. Go back and check if you want.

Oh snap, this is a bigger trade. We get Brandan Knight and give up Plumlee and Ennis.

For Isaiah Thomas, Boston will send Marcus Thornton and a 2016 first-round pick via Cleveland to Phoenix, league source tells Yahoo Sports.

Why would we trade the Laker's pick AND IT for Knight? That one doesnt make sense.

well we are getting Brandon Knight and 3 first round picks..

Knight is having a terrific season..

As I said earlier, Knight is a very good player. The trade deadline has been wacko.

Source: Miami sends Danny Granger, Norris Cole, Shawne Williams, Jordan Hamilton and two first-round picks to the Suns for Dragic brothers.

Did the Suns shake it up or what?

He's also a RFA in three months which means we'll likely be back in the same place we were yesterday - paying two guys who play the same position about half of our salary cap.

I agree but Knight could be a star player.
