I dont think he would risk the tank. He will make a deal before the season or very very early in the season. Nobody wants to budge now though

Even with Mitchell they going to the lottery

Dolan will eventually cave.

It'd be one thing if you lost interest in Spida because of Spida -- but to lose interest because you're tired of waiting??

:banghead:

I already explained myself

The more I wait. The more I think about the defensive liability Brunson and Dmitch backcourt will be


Keep in mind these guys are not Fournier and Kemba. Fournier and Kemba have no ability to play D. Mitch and Brunson have ability to play some level of D. I don't think they will be nearly as bad as some think under a defensive minded coach in Thibs.


Have u seen Mitchell play defense??

What do the Heat even have to offer?? Our B package is better than all 6 teams from WT A package...

Trying to up the price talking about teams interested but we all know that those two teams can’t put a competitive offer together.

It’s the Knicks heat or a mystery team like Okc orlando or pels going in for Mitchell.

Don’t sell me this kings hawks wizards bs


Honestly Ainge is just playing the waiting game...he believe he has time on his side and an impatient owner on the other (for a star).


knicks are gonna cave it's just by how much

Na Brock got a say and they don't need Mitchell they got Brunson just save the assets star's become available every year

Maybe, but they won’t be bottoming out as Ainge wants to do. Right now they are good enough for the playin or will just miss it so probably in that 10-13 range. Ainge is going to want to tank for a top 5 pick in this draft

If the Celtics are smart, they'd draw the line at Brown and not do the trade

this is why you need to play your young players too and not block them.

In trade negotiations why would Ainge value our young guys if our own team only play them like sparing bench pieces.

GS-- traded their 2024 FRP to Memphis, could only trade their FRPs starting from 2026
Houston--have traded their 2024 and 2026 FRPs to OKC
Indiana-- They have some FRPs availabe for a deal, BUT extremely unlikely to be willing to give up unprotected FRPs amidst a rebuild
Clippers-- Traded their 2024 + 2026 picks to OKC
Lakers--can trade FRP only starting in 2027
Memphis--are free to trade their FRPs which will be 25-30 range
Heat--unproteced FRPs have little to no value (25-30)
Milwaukee--have traded 2023 + 2025 + 2027 FRPs
Minnesota-- no picks
New Orleans-- They have their own picks + Lakers picks
OKC--won't trade unprotected FRPs
Orlando--won't trade unprotected FRPs
Philly-- no picks available
Phoenix--unprotected picks of little value
Trailblazers--have traded their 2023 FRP to Chicago
Kings--have traded their 2024 to Atlanta, could only trade unprotected FRPs starting 2028
Spurs--not trading for Mitchell
Raptors--have only their own picks, no other picks
Wizards--can trade FRP starting in 2028

As you can see, OKC, Indiana and NO are the only other possible thinkable teams able to put together a competitive picks offer (this is assuming Ainge does not want back impact players but mostly picks to tank most efficiently). Indiana won't give up unprotected picks IMO (especially not after they just gave away Brogdon)and OKC probably not either. NO I could see make a play for Mitchell but they just traded for CJ and Mitchell would be even a worse fit there than here. Also, with Zion's health issues I think NO would be hesitant to traded unprotected FRPs.

Anyways, if one of those teams goes out of their way to make an insane offer then so be it. The odds are tremendously low. I personally think if Rose played hard hard ball he could get it done with 2 unprotected FRPs + 2 protected FRPs + a couple of the young guys. The market and leverage is in the Knicks favor here big time.

Nice long list. Kind of ignores possible scenarios where teams on the bubble of having enough to offer make 3 ways trades to have enough stuff.

Like Miami.

I mean, you can just feel it. Miami will work something out with OKC to get enough picks, land DMitch.
It's inevitable.
