Essentially you gotta ask yourself this: If this team was healthy right now---we would be battling Boston, Denver and Minny for the title....and all our players are just entering their prime really. I don't see them breaking that up.

Yes if Booker became available you obviously try to get him but I doubt Phoenix is going to make him available....they'll try to do something similar to the Mavericks where they try to add a couple solid role playing guys and hope for the best. They invested everything they had in that big 3.....

I prefer a cheaper (wont cost Randle), more 2-way player, with some built in Nova chemistry.

I havent seen any full games of Booker...My concern is - whoever we bring to this team can not disturb Brunson's game.
Have you seen Booker play full games? does he play defense? curious questions...

Booker would mesh with Brunson on offense, I don't doubt that. However, Booker isn't the best defender, though.

Neither is Donte though, right? I think Booker could defend acceptably under Thibs

This is amazing. Players are demanding New York because they want to win. Whether we get Booker or not... we did it.

Donte is a pesky defender n he hustles his ass off

I really hope we handle our business tomorrow so I can eviscerate the joke of a franchise we call the Philadelphia 76ers

He definitely earned it on that one. That's one of the best playoff performances I've seen.

Depends on the cost. Do you really want to gut this team for Booker? Phoenix will be desperate to retool now that they don't control their picks for 7 years.

Mitch, Julius and Bojan plus 3-4 1sts is a good deal for the suns!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Brunson/Deuce
Booker/Divo
Jhart/OG
Og/Jhart
Ihart/Precious

Not too shabby. We would need to resign iHart, Precious and OG this off-season. Not sure how all the numbers work out. Also we might not need to include Bogs in the trade. Mitch + Julius would be enough to match Bookers salary.

We dont miss Randle. But adding Bonifde scorer and ball handler in Booker would be nuts. Duece/Donte/Bog/Hart off the bench? That insane !!

Brunson 6"1
Booker 6"5
OG 6"8
Precious 6"10
IHart 7"0

Small but it can work.

50-65mins from the bench players... 10-13 mins rest for the starters on average...

We need to outrun them in Game 5... mooooarr small ball

Brunson
McBride
Donte (Josh if he shoots better)
Anunoby
Achiuwa

You’re banned from proposing anymore lineups.

my small ball lineup won you game 4 sir... Faleminderit

You didn’t have Precious in your rotation for Game 4, Shqipti. :lol:

I mean… Ls are Ls.

Absolutely, and the series is rightfully 3-1 Knicks. I'm only speaking about what's left in front of us.
