    His BB IQ is too low to play with CP3 and Harden efficiently. He put up a lot of dumb shots. Some were "No! No! Nooo! Noooooo! .... Yes!"s

    That step back on Exum will be forever nasty.

    Two teams I think should consider taking Ryno on....Indiana and Toronto.

    Indy could package Al and Thaddeus' contracts in a 3 way trade. He could be a decent fit there and they could potentially be an 8th seed if they want to stay competitive.

    I think he'd be a great fit in Toronto in place of JV (sliding Ibaka to center).

    Very nice, stuff like this starts to paint a narrative that NY doesn't want to see blossom...

    I completely agree with you on Toronto, but Indiana just drafted TJ Leaf who is a stretch 4.

    Just curious, this summer Toronto basically stood pat, keeping their core. What trade move would you suggest them to do to get Ryno?

    What about OKC in a deal involving Kanter, who they basically had to bench in the playoffs but might actually be decent for rebuilding NYK next to Porzingis.

    Something like this: http://www.espn.com/nba/tradeMachine?tradeId=y9nurxk2

    Toronto wants to trade Valanciunas, so Ibaka can play center. Ryan Anderson gives them a stretch 4.
    New York gets a young productive center and young players/expirings.
    Of course, the Rockets would need to give up some draft picks to make it work.

    I can't think of any other teams willing to trade for Anderson, especially any western conference teams to help out a rival.

    with regards to Toronto, Lowry and Ibaka will become free agents in 3 years, and Derozan can become a free agent in 3 years as well if he declines his Player Option

    Ryno has 3 years left on his deal as well, so the length of his contract might not be as big of an issue for them. They can go for it now and have a clean slate in 2020. Ryno is a natural fit for them, and it would be hard for them to get a better PF than him since they don't have cap space and don't have a ton of assets.

    The Raptors were 21st in 3 pointers made and 22nd in attempts last year. Ryno can open up the floor for Lowry and Derozan.

    Not questioning your logic, just sayin' a clean slate works a whole bunch better in a market that attracts FAs. Toronto is a great city but not a typical destination for NBAers.
