NFT: Knicks - Free agent point guards for Hornacek's uptempo...

JimNY56 : 5/21/2016 3:50 am
offense.

Mike Conley [28] Achilles injury
Rajon Rondo [30] Defense?
Jeremy Lin [27] Played well against the Knicks
Brandon Jennings [26] Achilles injury
Tyler Johnson [24] Restricted
Matthew Dellavedova [25] Restricted
Mario Chalmers [30] Achilles injury
Anyone else?

What order would you put them in?
Who is the best fit?
Who listed can hit a jump shot fairly consistently, along with the knack to drive to the basket and dish off?
Who here has the uncanny abilities to not only see the open man but to get him the ball at the right spot and time?
Who listed has the skill set to not only run an uptempo offense, but also a slow set offense when called for?

Do you see Jeremy Lin as a good option, considering ability and cost?

Rondo is just stat chasing at this point

Some of it may be to inflate his numbers for a big contract. Some of it may be because he stopped giving a fuck 4 years ago and knows some nitwit is going to throw money at him no matter what. But he hasn't tried on D since the doc rivers days and he consistently hogs the ball in order to make the passes that lead to assists in the box score and not the passes needed to win games.
Forget rondonfor a second

Hiring hornacek could make the Knicks more attractive to a guy like conley , if the Knicks hired rambis or shaw and were strictly triangle I don't think Knicks have any chance at a high level point guard...

Take it past this year and could make them more attractive to the elite pgs next year

Mike Conley our highest paid player would be a colossal blunder.

I'd personally go after batum and wait on point guard until the following year, see what grant can do

Nice player, but not worth the max deal he will likely get. Also, not likely to be interested in being a Knick unless Melo is dealt.

The Giants are throwing good money at bad players? Who are these bad players?

Melo is a 3/4

Batum is a 2/3. Melo being on the team shouldn't be a deterrent.
