We should stay put. Come on, not this guy. I get it, he’s incredibly good, but I prefer our core.

This, too. Core were 2 wins from the Finals. A more modern styled coach gets a lot more out of them on the offense. I just don't want KAT at the 5.

This one would surprise me greatly but who knows Phx may go firesale.

Booker is CAA too.

Hart, Mikal and Mitch for Booker

DO IT

Let's see if it's possible to win a chip with no defense from 3 different positions.

Brunson
Booker
OG
KAT
Hukporti/Nnaji/Who cares/18 fouls

Warning: I don't love it , but this is something like how you could get this complex trade to work. The money in this one was hard to juggle just right to get it to work without including Huk's near min salary of 1.9...but Im sure there's probably a way to not include him.

Just posting it to show the rough framework of what would be potentially involved in pulling a trade of this magnitude off when you have 1st and 2nd apron teams involved.

Geeze, I thought there would be a summer of less trade machine jizz fantasies now that KD is traded but all that has happened he will be replaced with Booker. I guess I should have known that the trade gooners fetishizing other players star phucking never stops.

yeah these Booker proposals make a lot of sense. Suns are dying for a no-picks-no-stars return.

It's Knicks boardland, where we trade our 3rd string for all stars daily. :lol: (and no one ever says "No.")

Folks just cant resist can they? I literally prefaced this with a warning about including someone else besides Hukprti .....and also personally said Im not in love with the deal myself...

again its just to see what the framework looks like. But flamers gonna flame cuz thats what they do lol probably didnt even read what was written

No way. Carlisle is a HOF level coach. He’s not losing to a couple of cast-off second-rate coaches. Get real.


Is that Marc Berman tweet serious or sarcasm?
Satcasm obviously.

I love Mitch but if the Knicks plan on keeping Brunson and KAT together i'm not sure he can cover for their defensive issues in the starting lineup. When he started the Pacers still had the floor spread out pulling him away from the basket negating a lot of his ability as a rim protector. KAT and Brunson are still going to get called into a lot of the actions. Mitch is pretty mobile for a big center but still not someone that can cut off the paint and get back out to shooters consistently. The two-big lineup feels very situational especially with another poor defender in Brunson on the court.

The Knicks were able to find many good defensive lineups with JB and KAT separated with and without Mitch but they still struggled to defend as a team even with Mitch paired with them in the small sample size we saw. I think I would prefer a more mobile forward with some rim protecting capabilities between those two and I would be open to moving Mitch if it helped to obtain that type of player. I would be even willing to gamble on developing that type of player in the draft.

Mitch's dominance on the glass would be missed but I think the Knicks could find another suitable backup center.

Clear cut favorite? I don't think so. Cleveland still has a better team today than the Knicks.

I don't know. they proved once again, that they are paper tigers in the playoffs. And they have to shed salary.
