It's Been 12 Hours Since The Suns Lost And We Already Have Rumors That Devin Booker Is Practically Begging To Be A Knick (Don't Blame Him)

Do I care that Stephen A. is seemingly making up news here? No. This is honest reporting. He doesn't care what Booker says, he knows people who say Devin Booker wants to be a Knick and that's good enough for my dumb brain. Actually, not even dumb brain, this would just be smart for Booker. He gets to play alongside another superstar in Jalen Brunson, he gets to play for a coach who knows what he's doing and would basically be in the Donte role. Fine by me! 

It shouldn't even be a secret that a big name wants to play for the Knicks. Look at the team! Thibs has made everyone better in a short few years. We're the 2 seed in the East, 3-1 lead over the Sixers and a piece or two away from being a true title contender in the eyes of everyone. Step 1 is getting Booker. I don't know why Knicks fans are anti-Booker, I'll say it. He's good. In fact he's really damn good. 

Now, sure, I don't want to necessarily break up the Nova connection here. But Booker is an improvement over Donte, who has been awesome. You gotta make the move if you want a better chance at winning a title. Oh and remember this little tidbit? 

That's right, our beloved Leon Rose was Booker's agent. That's a little something we call a connection. So no, I don't care that Stephen A. is the one talking about it here. Our hands are tied. Devin Booker is practically begging to be a New York Knick and no one should blame him.
