When it rains, it pours. First, new of Eric Gordon wanting the Suns.

Well well... Iman Shumpert would be a VERY nice long-term asset in return for losing Nash, who was leaving anyway.

First reported by Alan Hahn, a Knicks beat writer, and further delved into by Marc Stein, a friend of Nash in the media business. Toronto and Dallas remain in the hunt, but the Knicks are #1.
