100000 likes or retweets and they move up to get Bagley.

Knicks are going to eat Parsons for Bamba.

Looks like we may have some competition for 4.

I'd rather have the rumors than not have them so keep em' coming boys. I'll take them with a pound of salt but it's still fun to hear what info people are getting.

If they do that they won't have any money to resign Porzingis, or it would SEVERLY hamper any efforts to build a team around him. The Knicks aren't a threat here IMO.

Great breakdown of their situation:

GarPax would be morons not to do this deal.

#22 - odds are be a role player at best

Portis - at best, a 6th man on this roster

Ideally, deal be Felicio + 7 + Holiday/Portis for Parsons + 4

That's a bargain to move up a few spots to get an elite player. You want to get a top player you have to be willing to part w/ pieces.



These are not proven players so they aren't elite.

Knicks couldn't fit Parsons under the cap, right?

The Knicks have basically zero cap room, and several bad contracts of their own (e.g., Noah), so it's going to be a real pull for them to work out a deal that would allow them to take on Parsons' contract.

Rumors are fun but people getting all excited over the hint that there is a rumor is what the board does this time of year.

I might have to take Friday off from work if this is true!


If anyone takes Friday off on account of this post, you should be on the hook for their lost PTO.

With that said, well played (!).
