Are they going to convert the picks into future picks? Are they going to package them for Bridges? Are Nets in truly rebuild mode yet? McBride, Bogdonavic, Robinson both 2024 picks and 1-2 more Future FRPs for Mikal Bridges and another lower level player.

I get the cross town rival thing but Bridges just reeks of a player the Knicks would be willing to overpay for.

Sign DeAnthony Melton

Bridges is literally a perfect fit here. And behind the scenes Bridges may be pushing for it. If Knicks make an overpay kind of offer I could see Tsai doing it. Bridges gives us another guy who can be that great defensive piece when OG misses some games too.

Bridges to NYK seems like destiny but I don't know what BRK is trying to do over there.... they can't really tank because they don't have their own pick. Are they trying to get Spida to pair with Bridges? I just don't know... Your package for Mikal is a really good one. Definitely an overpay in normal situations. I don't think I'd give more than #24 and #25 this year. The future picks seems way too steep.

Does bridges mom still work for the 76ers?

I thought Joe said they were rebuilding? I think if they made the deal with Houston to swap Phoenix’s picks for their own picks back, they’d probably be a bit more inclined to deal Mikal to us for a solid rebuilding package.

Maybe include OKC in a 3 team deal to get BK an extra 1st (25’ from Denver) while sending them Mitch (and simultaneously deterring them from trying to sign iHart in FA). Then send them both picks this draft, and Deuce (try replacing him with Caruso in a deal with Chicago).

That’s been my offseason wishlist for a while. I think the version of Mikal we’d see here would be a combo of 23’ Nets on offense, and Suns on defense because he wouldn’t have to carry the whole offensive load himself so he’d still be able to D up effectively. But if somebody goes down, he could step up to #2 on offense for sure. Perfect #3 tho.

You can’t trade Mitch. As much as he annoys me with his injuries, he proved his defensive worth against Philly and Embiid.

Not a huge fan of chat sports either but it he is quoting what Windhorst said about Giannis.

Giannis has to be Plan A by far if he is actually available. And you give them Randle in a heartbeat.

Randle, Mitchell Robinson, and 4FRPs for Giannis (who is going to top that offer?)

Bogdonavic , McBride and 3FRPs for Bridges

lol mr 2k trades strikes again… i feel like if giannis was really thinking about demanding out we would’ve heard something by now. i honestly don’t see him leaving, not this summer at least. we def won’t have enough left to then swing a deal for bridges in any hypothetical greek trade… this is hella unrealistic

[aggo]

I would not rule out OG opt in.

here's why:



everyone will probably want injury guarantees or game played guarantees.



knicks will say:


we give you everything guaranteed u want, just opt in.



the caveat is: I dont think the knicks offer this unless they have a plan to use the extra 20m they save this year. if there's nothing to do with that money, knicks will just give OG the best deal and be done with it. but the point is that with Brock aller there is always a plan with the cap that we dont see coming.

Are you saying the offers above are not good enough to acquire both players? We have all the assets I have listed for both trades . Randle is better than almost any other player sent back in a Superstar trade of the past decade or so. Even Markenen wasn't as established as a 20+ point scorer when Utah got him. 25/10/5 guys don't grow on trees.

Pulling off two trades IS unlikely because so much has to go right for just 1. However having enough assets to pull it off is definitely not the biggest issue to make it happen.

we are not the only team in the league with assets. there will most definitely be a bidding war on both players which will drive the price up tremendously.

Bridges is NOT an elite offensive player. He is probably a bit better than OG. What he is is a tremendous fit for a teams defensive structure while being able to be a good complimentary scorer. OG was had for 2 players and no FRPs. Bridges isn't going to command some huge amount more.

a team like the rockets, who also have reported interest in bridges is easily in position to outbid us

Didn’t it come out that they weren’t interested in Mikal, and it was actually just the Suns’s 1st’s that the Nets have?

Possibly especially if we expend assets in another trade but it all depends just how far another team will go. Because we do have a very good amount of assets especially when you include the likes of Randle and then Robinson in the mix.

[Capn'O]

Yeah, we're obviously monitoring Giannis (and Booker) and should pounce on that as possible. Give them all the things.

The flipside of that if somebody of that caliber is not available (likely) a high priority in prolonging our competitive window should be acquiring cheap talent. I hope we're not ruling out the draft entirely.

i don’t recall seeing that anywhere but who knows maybe. i can def see the fit and appeal for them with udoka at the helm of what they’re building there

[HarthorneWingo]

lol we’re never using the draft again

And THAT'S the genius of my "Knicks Summer of '24 thread". I include the draft in it. We don't need a dedicated Draft Thread '24.
