Maybe they'll find that SF in the Summer League.

At least Asik is a useful player. Raptors paid $20 million to give them a better shot at Nash. Fields doesn't help them at all.

If Nash turned around and went to Dallas now...

I remember when ESPN was hyping Fields his rookie season lol.

He's not the player they really need even though he's a SF and they need a 3.... he might be left out of the rotation before it's all said and done. Much different than the Asik deal, where Chicago would feel the impact, NY won't blink an eye, lol

I'd take the Asik deal over Fields. That's because we've been watching Landry Fields for 2 years straight and he has shown ZERO improvement.

ehh hit the nail on the head. Fields is not much different than a D-League swingman.

We're not trying to bash Fields...this is just the truth. He's not worth $20M over 3 years.

I can't wait for the Knicks to tell him and Nash to take a hike.

If they're willing to spend that much money on Landry Fields JUST to get Steve Nash, they might as well just offer Nash the max and skip the Landry Fields step.

Agree with the three of you.

Honestly though, what is Landry worth? I said 4-5 mill....

[Weeks]

Fields FT% dropped from 77% as a rookie to 56%. And his three from 39% to 25%
