How do you solve a problem like . . . Brandon Knight

[pokerface]

Theres definitely no perfect plan but people seem to say trade trade trade, it is a terrible time to do that. Buy low sell high, thats why its a great time to trade Bledsoe

Im off the trade Bled bandwagon. I thought it should have been by the trade deadline or the draft at the latest. Now it's seeming too late. I'd rather watch the team roll as is...so would the other suns players I'm sure. We can't sentence them to another tanked season.

The problem with BK is that the more opportunutities the Suns have given him, the more poorly he plays. He had a perfect opportunity at the beginning of last year to embrace a 6th man role. But he played selfishly and inefficiently with little defensive effectiveness.

He sabotages himself.

I do not think Knight ruined last season at all. In fact, he was a non-impact to me. He did not cost us getting into the playoffs by any means. That was a team effort. I want to see more young guys continue to get minutes. I enjoyed their play even if we did not win games. There were definitely games where the young guys got us into position to win, and if you could have brought in a Bledsoe and Chandler at the end of games, we might have pulled some of those games out, arguably. On the other hand, those were valuable minutes for the young guys that will help us this season.

How do you solve Brandon Knight? It's actually quite easy. You just get your DeLorean up to 88 MPH...go back in time and lock Sarver and Co in the closet, so they can't execute that trade.

Ehhh i would disagree somewhat, in the 15-16 season he averaged 20ppg and 5 assists in also an awkward role of playing out of position. Granted he was only shooting 41%, the circumstances of playing out of position can be a contributor. He proved in milwakee he can play for sure. It is tough when you are a proven starter to all of the sudden be relegated to a 6th man. Im confident in saying if he had starters point guard minutes again he would flourish.

How about BK to the Heat and we give them their picks back?

Oh hell no.

Those picks have a chance at being top 10.

How about BK to the Clippers in a sign and trade for Blake Griffin?

They have no use for him...

Jamal Crawford
Austin Rivers
Pat Beverly
Lou Williams

How would Knight flourish any more next season than last? Is he more skilled at the Point than Bledsoe (and I'd like to see both of them gone)? Or at Shooting Guard than Booker? Or pushing Booker to replace a Forward? Knight was demoted last season because, even if he had played better, there is no place for him. He said his good-bye's. Let him go.

I think Knight could be better than he was this season. He knows his role now, unlike last season when he was named as a bench player at the end of pre-season. Maybe now that he knows his role he could focus on improving at it. I don't think it's that likely but it's a possibility.

Anytime someone brings up trading BK I ask why.

When I wake up in the morning I ask why.

A snowballs chance...

Well, knowing the Suns luck Lebron will get the band back together in Miami.

Miami had a pretty good season this past season, albeit no playoffs, and had one of the best finishing records in the league to close out the season too I believe. If they pick up where they left off, then good chance that won't be a lotto pick especially considering how much worse the East got.

Yeah Miami finished the season very strong indeed. Let's hope they cooled off!
