North Jersey but I miss Cali :sadcam:
I don't even know how you came up with this. Check their comparison in steals, assists, and rebounds and explain how we know for a fact that he can replace that. Not to mention their shooting percentages being close despite Shumpert going through a shooting slump (he was hitting shots in preseason and the first two games that he's not hitting now) while THJr is just out there playing his game

No, Hardaway needs to be our Novak this season, Shumpert needs to find his shot so he can be a threat (and stop gambling on D), and Chandler needs to come back. Aside from an unlikely Felton trade, that's all that needs to happen


:mindblown: What is this infatuation with Shumpert?????? Faried plays defense and he REBOUNDS. He shoots over 50% he doesn't need many touches to be effective and he's the same age as Shumpert. Shumpert on the other hand is a career 39% shooter.

Prigi shoots a three, and a little ball movement gets going, but by the next timeout break Woodface bench him:scusthov: What did the JR Bricks do with his whole summer break and five game suspension:pacspit: Stat just hang it up:flabbynsick: Melo going to have to scove over 40 every night, just for us to have a shot of winning:damn: And, for the love of Gawd, throw those nasty orange jersey in the bushes:birdman:

It's because Shump has'nt been given the proper chance to develop. But Dolan is not looking at it like that, he's looking at it like dude came back and he's had an entire off season to get back into proper form and still we're not seeing anything. So in their mind, they're trying to cut their losses and address something that can actually be fixed right here and in the now so that we're not in the cellar come All-Star Break.

At least that's how I see it. Not saying I agree.

I don't think Shumpert is being developed properly at all. Dolan hates him, Melo wasn't a fan of drafting him, yet he's the only one who seems to care about defense.

The team is run by the CAA, Melo, JR/Chris Smith's agency. With JR's FA status last year, his brother was a package deal, and as we saw this year, he made the team despite having a rep as the worst player in the D-League. Woodson fired his longtime agent because Dolan didn't like the guy's affiliation to Larry Brown. Shumpert's agent Happy Walters also reps Amare, who isn't exactly redeeming his contract.

They know about JR's knee injury and pay him and still draft THJR. Woodson's been treating Shumpert like he's still a rookie. How is he supposed to develop? On top of that, he plays the 3 on offense which in our offense means stand around and watch Melo and spot up around him. When Ty comes back, i think Shumps going to the bench if we run a big lineup.

Like how is this kid supposed to develop when his owner hates him and his coach undermines him? On top of that he only gets like 8 shots a game.
