this mf knows some

3-way…
Randle, Mitch, Precious, Deuce, protected picks out…
KAT, Kessler, filler in…

Seems plausible…

Big Knicks Energy is another one that has nailed stuff early before. Something is definitely cooking folks.

Please no to Towns. Intriguing at first, but I’ve come to my senses. No me gusta

Yeah. If not they are trolling HARD! I wasn't feeling like CP had any scoop but, these dudes have dropped news multiple times. Now I have to actually wrap my head around this move? Ugh. I really loved the way this team, looked in January. They were absolute monsters against EVERYONE! Pure domination! I really want to see it fully healthy with Mikal amd some depth!

Ok. We have Precious dangling. So it's S&T Precious and Randle for KAT? plus the two picks? What else would we need to add? Deuce? FUQ THIS TRADE MAN!! NO!

Davis18 · Post #1564 » by **Davis18** » Wed Jul 17, 2024 5:22 am

First option is to extend Randle at discount.. similar to Brunson deal.
If not then ship him out for assets to redirect for much needed big man and bring back Precious.

Jalen Bluntson · Post #1565 » by **Jalen Bluntson** » Wed Jul 17, 2024 5:51 am

Unless we S&T Precious for 14mil....it has to be Randle/Mitch/Deuce for KAT. Then we bring back Precious and find TWO CENTERS to start the season? Makes NO SENSE AT ALL unless Randle told them he wants his max 5/310.

Are they playing him at the 5? Then it's only a backup center needed and I assume OG or Hart plays the 4.

Brunson/Payne/Kolek
Bridges/DDV/???
Hart/Pacome/???
OG/Precious/KBD
KAT/Sims/???

Huktooah
???
???
5mil MLE

OR

Brunson/Cam/Kolek
Bridges/DDV/???
OG/Hart/Pacman
KAT/Precious/KBD
Sims/???/???
Or Precious starts at the 5?

Huktooah
???
???
5mil MLE

If KAT is coming then he has to play 5.
Divo starting 2 and Hart as switch blade off the bench.

Depending on what they sign Precious for...they still need at least 2 spots filled with the what's left. I don't like it at all. There would be roughly 13.5 mil left under the second apron to bring back Precious and solidify the SG/C positions? This trade creates holes and limits the ability to fill them. Making us weaker. The ONLY way this makes sense is if Randle told them he's going for 5/310 next year or leaving for nothing. Doesn't seem like he would do that but, money talks.

Jalen Bluntson · Post #1568 » by **Jalen Bluntson** » Wed Jul 17, 2024 8:39 am

I missed the potential to include Precious to bring back a backup center in this trade. That's assuming they play KAT at the 5. Would obviously need to be a three team deal. Hmmm. I guess we will find out soon enough.

If Randle takes his extension of 4/190 how soon after can they trade him?

Davis18 · Post #1569 » by **Davis18** » Wed Jul 17, 2024 8:49 am

Not gonna happen but, ultimate solution would be Randle taking on Draymond role.
Randle/Mitch tandem could be interesting.

Yet Randle is not half the defender or passer Green is. We don’t even need to talk about Robinson as a passer, let alone in comparison to Bogut/Zaua/Looney. You could hope for something like that if you added Vucevic, Nurkic or Sabonis, but they have other serious flaws.

That said, Curry, Hield, Wiggins/Kuminga, Green, Lauri could be a winning, or at least very interesting formula.

He’s just throwing out an idea for people to talk about. He does that for a lot of players. If he knew something he would outright say it.

I'm playing around with sign and trade ideas

Wsign him to whatever amount we want but the BYC. Rules for sign and trade restrict what salary is represented in a trade

The BYC rules apply to a player who meets the following criteria in a sign-and-trade:

“He is a Bird or Early Bird free agent.
His new salary is worth more than the minimum.
He receives a raise greater than 20%.
His team is at or above the cap immediately after the signing.
If the player meets those criteria and is included in a sign-and-trade deal, his outgoing salary for matching purposes is considered to be his previous salary or 50% of his new salary, whichever is greater. For the team he is being signed-and-traded to, his incoming figure for matching purposes is his full new salary.”
