Talking to the Knicks about trading for Frank Ntilikina.
Not sure how I insert Tweet
another guard who can't shoot?
Hopefully it's all speculation, which I think it is.

They already have a better version of Ntilikina in Murray.
It's either Forbes/Pondexter or Belinelli they would have to trade with probably the Raptors pick attached cause the Knicks are looking to get a pick. I don't think giving them the Toronto pick is worth it.
Different positions, tbh.Quote:

Ntilikina is the worst PG in the league and I don't think it's close. Is this faggot purposely trying to have a roster full of garbage midgets?
This is not how you small ball, RV.
Shit, I thought he was a SG. He's 6'6. He's still better than our shitty 3 PGs, tbh.Quote:

Yeah. Probably just due diligence. There's no logical trade to be made. Despite being a recent top 10 pick, his current value isn't commensurate with one and the Raptors 1st would be them selling low. Even if they'd do it for that and salary filler, I wouldn't even give that up for him. Too much negative overlap with Murray.Quote:

Ntilikina is even worse than that pickQuote:

Probably another Parker recommendation :lol
A top 10 draft pick in the second year of his deal who hasn't performed as expected... that's the type of player you want to add if you are going to shed veteran players and start over. I'm all for it. If you can move belli for him do it and try to develop him to reach his potential. Hopefully this means we are prioritizing a direction and this is a precursor to unloading some of our higher priced guys.
Tony has publicly put in a good word for him before funny enough :lolQuote:

Seems like a move in the right direction, if we can improve his shooting. Sure, that's a big if, but as a rookie, he shot 38% from the corner 3 and he plays for the Knicks, so that doesn't help either.
Quote:
Through his first 100 games in the NBA, Ntilikina has shown an advanced defensive acumen. As a rookie, he was one of the league’s best players in defending the pick-and-roll. When you combine his defensive intelligence with his great size — he’s 6’7″ with a 7’0″ wingspan — you have a potential perimeter force on the defensive end.

He defended Kyrie well. He can be elite at that end. But this team already has too many guards and unless you get him for nothing (Forbes, Belinelli) it doesn't make much sense. NY wants a pickQuote:

Sure, one more guard.
Sure, let's send Forbes or Beli or the Toronto pick, we need defense.Quote:

You think that 28-30th pick from Toronto will get spurs something better than a one year removed lottory pick that hasn’t performed as expected but also has played for the worst franchise in sports?Quote:

I get what you're saying but, if we are truly tanking I'd rather take back a salary that ny wants to shed instead of giving up a pick.Quote:

He's pretty impressive defensively but terrible defensively. I'd trade a second round pick for him based on his defense and his upside. Not sure I'd trade the Raptors pick unless the Spurs are also offloading a bad contract.
MoSpur, do you have any new inside info on the spurs generally?Quote:

I tried to get info on this rumor if you want to call it that, but didn't get anything back. I've been asking more lately because of how awful they're playing lately, but no info as of yet.Quote:

Not necessarily related to this rumor, but I asked Mike Wright a week ago about the mood behind the scenes and he said he’s heard Pop is taking this really hard. Nothing substantial but might give you insight into what they are thinking at the momentQuote:

We need defense.
Some guys just need a change of scenery. You know who IS playing well at PG for the Knicks? Mudiay. He was an absolute bust in Denver. He’s playing 23 minutes, scoring 11+ points, 2+ ast, 3 reb, shooting 47%, 36% from 3.
After last night's game I would be more inclined to make this trade. We desperately need guys with talent (even if he hasn't lived up to it yet) and someone who can play D.
:lolQuote:

He kind of makes too much $ for a gamble but if they are losing games left and right, trading one of their traffic cone guards for a little bit of defense from their guard spots is a welcome sight.
Saw this on twitter smh”Hearing that a few weeks ago Janis Strelnieks got an offer from the San Antonio Spurs but he decided to remain with Olympiacos.Strelnieks is averaging 4.8ppg in Greek League and 7.9ppg in EuroLeague this season”
:lol He did the same for Turiaf.. dude couldn't care less about skill just flagQuote:

Think if the right trade could be had, he'd be a worth while addition.
Already posted
yeah, he looks worn, saw a clip of him calling a timeout after some shit defense. Don't see how anyone that's followed this team would think he wouldn't take this hard, I feel bad for him.Quote:

I'd do Forbes/Marco/Toronto pick for him and Robinson, tbh.
its not much money. He makes like 900k. So an exception of $450k isn't much.Quote:
