    Black hole??? Last year he averaged 21ppg and 7.5apg per 36 minutes on a healthy 56.6 TS% while playing for a trash Brooklyn team.

    We hardly ever saw that Crabbe either. He had 2 assists in that clip.

    Jeremy Lin is one of the most underrated guards in the NBA.
    When he's healthy when he's healthy that is. At the end of the day he makes teams better. Quality bench player who could be a 6th-7th man off the bench for a 50-60 win team.

    Didn't that guy on ESPN get fired for calling Jeremy Lin an Asian black hole?

    He also gets robbed on calls more than anyone. Dude straight up gets murdered at the rim at times.

    Would you do it? Would they do it??

    The point of this trade is to replace Turner's monstrous contract for a contract that will expire 1 year sooner (Shump) and a guy you can easily trade later even though he might fit well in Stotts' system.
    The Knicks get rid of contracts and gain young players for their rebuild, Cavs are trying to satisfy Lebron by getting him what he wants (a big who can shoot from the outside instead of old Frye and another ballhandler\wing defender).

    None of the 3 teams in this trade would make this move.

    Why would we trade for 2 shooting guards?

    In our guys defense who else could you credibly count on to put the ball in the hoop?

    Shump is not there because of his skillset, he's just a contract.

    You wrote some really good arguments there.

    Ya well I don't want to trade Turner. I might be in the minority but I want to keep Evan Turner. I think he's a good veteran and can be a difference maker on the right team.

    Nets are short on PG's too, so if they were to trade Lin, they'd have to get one back as well. Napier/Davis/Leonard for Lin+filler...would they do it? Or would Vonleh be a necessary inclusion in any Lin deal? If so, is that too high a price to pay to jettison Meyers?

    Portland doesn't immediately get cap relief.
    Turner & LBJ shouldn't be asked to play together.
    NYK is trading o'quinn for trash. Regardless if they believe him to be trash as well. Why would they trade trash for trash?

    Literally no incentive for any team involved to make this trade.

    He better stay. Too much versatility. I'd be unhappy if we traded him. Don't really care about Moe, Meyers, Davis, Crabbe...

    But Turner?

    That's a mistake
