Knicks · Alexey Shved (page 1)

Know that his fa was discussed ad nauseum last year but the financial landscape of the NBA has changed in a year and we also have a need.

IF there were an out clause in his contract would Jax now consider paying what he got abroad which was $10.2 for 3 years, an average of $3.4. Would we want Jax to revisit? I would ,kid is only 27, averaged 16 pg, 4 asts and 3 boards in 28 mpg with 47% fgp. He could backup Rose and sg and has already shown on NY stage where he brought creativity and some excitement to Garden. Think his game suits Hornachek up tempo style. Imagine him and Crawford coming off bench . He has a clothing line and there are plenty of Russians here so he likely could be open to a NY return. IF he had an out, I think a discussion should be had.

We have so much need and so many roster spots. Alex was a no brainer last year for 3 years 10mm--we wouldve been a better team with him. I think the value is easy to see?

depends on his contract

i agree. ive always been a fan of his. he could come cheap. i just hope he stays healthy

If going Euro I would have prefered to do everythig to get Nando de Colo how is the superior player at this point of their carreers. But he choose to stay in Moskow where he basically can be the man!

I dont think lexy is a good player. not sure what you guys see in him...

He played good in the system we were running. But now that Hornacek is coach, maybe that wouldn't be the case.
But he was GREAT at driving and getting to the line and was a very adept passer. Not terrible on defense.

Shved seems like a decent option. I'd go for Bayless first, but Shved is certainly a decent option. $4M a year probably gets him to leave Moscow.

don't think so. maybe 7-8 per.
