Another scenario I would try to play out is plucking Porz from the Knicks and then drafting Lauri Markkenan. Could you imagine the size and athleticism on our front line?

Doesnt' hurt to stay ahead of the curve. Both are freakish athletes for their size.

I laugh at LMA wanting out. Should have picked the Suns bruh.
If we did draft Josh Jackson and kept him though, I would trade Knight and sign and trade Alex Len for LMA though...

I'd rather have Len tbh. LMA does nothing for me, nothing for this team.

Would Boston trade their pick for LMA? Sure, let's have Spurs F the Suns one more time and draft Josh Jackson and possibly get Porzingis.

Knight being on the Spurs would give Pop a heart attack. He's that bad.

Woj: "Knicks haven't just been taking calls, they've been making calls. They've talked to Phoenix in particular. They proposed KP for Booker + 4, Suns flatly refused."

What about Aldridge for Chandler + Miami 2018 pick?

If we get Aldridge we are not gonna pursue Millsap.

Oh my, please no LMA.

He had a fine season but looked really bad in the GSW series. He was barely on par with Jonathon Simmons.

I wouldn't trade our second rd pick #54 for LMA much less any 1st rd pick.

Would rather use cap space to go after a Griffin or Milsap than trade anything for LMA.
