Why didn't Donovan Mitchell work the back channels and let Danny Ainge know that if he got traded that he only wanted to play for the New York Knicks?
He really dropped the ball here. He played Mr. Nice guy and let Trader Danny know it didn't matter where he got traded. His Agent and Advisors really selfishly hurt his Career!
And Think about all the Extra Money Donovan would have made in Endorsements because he's in the World's Biggest Market
Imagine a Jalen "Damn" Son & Donovan Mitchell backcourt?!?!
Only an idiot of the highest order would trade for RJ Barrett instead of Lauri. Ainge isn't that.
RJ had more value than Lauri at the time of the trade. There isn't much debating that.
I have a hard believing that any competent GM placed much value on RJ. He's so obviously a terrible player to even the most casual fans' eyes. Ainge has proven enough times that he knows what he's doing, and I have no doubt that any alleged interest in the Knicks trade package was being used as leverage against other teams.
