Lance is no angel. JR unties opponents shoe laces, Lance blows in your ear.JR for Lance Stephenson? I would love it, if just once, we let someone else go after the "talented but volatile" category of player.
I think Wargames broke down the trade pretty well. Maybe Charlotte looks to part company with Lance in exchange for JR's expiring next year instead of hanging on to Lance for 2 more years. I also think Wargames is right that if they want Shump also that would be a deal breaker. Lance isn't that talented to trade a former 6th man of the year and Shump but maybe the Knicks do it since they may lose Shump in FA anyway. Using the TPE does make more sense if Charlotte is willing to do that deal.
