NBA trades don’t work like that. You know this.


I think paying the most but no more than the most by a small amount is how it does and should work oftentimes. Call bluff.

Yup. ESPN gets fed info as a propaganda arm of the NBA. It's good for both of them. Grimes getting pumped up with some nice false narrative to make his inclusion in the deal better looking for Utah, a little worse for the Knicks.

Wife got, it was totally knocked out of the box for 2 days, and while still sick after that, was "ok", but weak for like a week.


Two daughters then got it, knocked out of the box for 1 day, little sick the next day, ok by day 3.

In both instances, I mean like sleeping 14 hours all day, getting up for a few, back to sleep for the night.

My son didn't get it; he had it earlier away at school.

The buzzardman got nothing because he's trained his body with years of abuse.

one thing I give Grimes credit for:

hes put in the work to get better. you can tell. He's not a great athlete but his gift is his shooting and he has clearly improved on his strength and ability to bump guys and create space that he needs.

I am actually glad that we did learn from the mistakes of Kevin Knox. It doesnt matter how talented you are-- if you dont have the motor to improve or the motor to compete, its a wrap for you in the NBA.

ESPN if no trade happens: "If I'm the Knicks I can't let Quentin Grimes stop you from trading for Spida. He's a role player. You trade 10 Grimes for one Donovan Mitchell.

ESPN if trade happens: Ainge held out for Grimes and it shows what a savvy negotiate he is. I think this kid can be a star. I think the Knicks will be kicking themselves for parting with his defense as the Knicks try for the play in every year.


I heard one of those ESPN guys did say the addition of Mitchell would make us a play in team. They really do hate us lol

I wouldn’t say they learned from any mistakes because they doubled down on it and traded knox and a 1st for reddish who also doesn’t have the motor to improve or compete. We would probably be better off right now with the extra hornets pick to trade to Utah

Feels like a given that Grimes will be in the deal. I think that's a mistake. If we want a title, get greedy. This guy is not worth shredding depth and prospects. He's good but he's not that good.

Lol I enjoyed their professionalism .
Their source however is guy close to the nba :
might be a High ranking realgm member who has been to multiple games in 20 years of coverage.

There’s been a few instances of the word imminent leaked out .
Their sources ‘being kids’ probably is not vaster to what their parents allow so while I enjoyed the content I’m not sure it was the groundbreaking story break we all waiting for.

Why does Donovan look like he walked through a particle accelerator in the thumbnail?
