      The Founders worked July 4, so...source confirms sign/trade talks between Knicks/Suns 4 Nash back on, w/NY now willing 2 include Shumpert.

      However, another source cautions that Nash has yet to decide where he wants to go, &?Suns have to see if NO matches Eric Gordon offer sheet.




      Back up the Brinks truck and hold the phone!

      Aldridge is also not a NY reporter.

          Will say this: Chasing Nash seems admission that Melo deal bombed & #Knicks desperate 4 him to somehow make mismatched pieces fit.

          Suddenly I'm not so glum - especially if Lowry is a possibility.

            Exactly my thoughts. It's like I just got dumped by my super hot girlfriend but while I was recovering another cute chick smiled at me and gave me hope.

            That sounded better in my head. I swear.

              • Everyone here old enough to remember when vince resigned in Toronto? Could you imagine that day if there was twitter or fan sites? Seems like that was another referendum on whether we were a legitimate franchise. On that note, just to bring up something I put in an earlier post, how far behind is our team if we don't sign nash? From the outset, the general consensus is that we could upgrade at PG but what we really needed was a SF. I assume that will still be the plan (if the Fields offer is rescinded). Yes, Nash would be an upgrade at PG but we could also use an upgrade at SF, PF and you could argue, C. So, if the Nash deal falls though, how far behind are we really (as a basketball team, not a franchise)?

                  Dont understand the "either way". Lowry is currently an unhappy camper in Houston precisely because he did not want to play second fiddle to Dragic leading to his McHale tirade. Why would the Raps get the both of them? But then this whole Nash thing has been mismanaged.

                      It would include caldy and either Amir or Ed

                      • Something else to consider:

                        If Asik deal is correct and it is $8.3M per year cap hit per year;
                        If Lin rumours are true and $10M per year cap hit;

                        Rockets need to dump about $9M in salary to make the offer if my math is correct.

                        RedNation please help me welcome @JLin7 back 2Houston today! Fitting on July4 as America is land of 2nd chances- #lin2houston in your reply

                        Toronto can certainly help clear a good chunk of it.

                        A sign and trade for Nash could also turn in to a 3 team affair with PHX-HOU-TOR.

                          Not if the Lin rumours are true.

                          Houston needs to have enough cap space to match the yearly average of the poison pill contract offer.

                          • If getting stuck with Landry Fields is the fallout from going all in for Nash, isn't this about equal to trading for Wilson Chandler? Salaries and average production in the NBA are comparable?

                              the thing is chandler is proven..you know what you will get from him.

                              I think fields is a good comparison but he has played two years in the league and is very inconsistent...if he pans out its a great move for the raptors

                                Nash hasn't come out and said ANYTHING. Until then, effing CHILL!!!!
                                Sorry for the rant, but come on ... when a whole country wants you to come play for them so much that they are prepared to pay 20% more than anyone else ... and you consider a pseudo-contender team that got eliminated in the first round of the playoffs instead then that is a diss that deserves a crazy rant!
