This was always the plan :D

The truth is I’m ok with however things turn out as long as I have someone to blame. Thanks MDB.

Well the Lakers got Luka for a breaking down Anthony Davis and a 1st round pick. But I mean give them either Bridges or OG whoever they prefer more, Hart, Mitchel Robinson and a bunch of whatever we have left in terms of 1st and 2nd round picks and/or pick swaps.

If he asks to be specifically traded here maybe their ownership obliges his request as a star of his gravity and loyalty to the organization.

With ZERO depth. Get ready folks!


Is Brunson willing to be the 3rd option?!!!!!!!!

Is Kat??!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Is Og willing to be the 4th option which he most certainly will be??!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It’s a recipe for disaster!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



OG would have to be in the trade...I never got the sense OG likes being here...he doesn't want to be a 3rd option and he for sure wouldn't want to be a 4th option.


OG, Mitch, Dadiet for Giannis works. Doubt that moves the needle for Milwaukee but whatever:

Giannis/KAT/Mikal/Deuce/Jalen
Hukporti/Josh/Kolek

Plus MLE and vet mins.

I watched the "Kidd nets" all the time. And EVERY player was at their best under Kidd. Thats a good thing for us.

Any tsunami offer we have involves KAT or Brunson. Anything else just completely depletes us.

It would be incredible if the Knicks slow played a long series of solid, cap minded moves for years just to punk us with a mindless all-in starphuck that leaves us without a direction, depth, or draft capital all over again.

Gotcha! We're still dumbasses.

If Giannis comes I don’t want to see Hart on this roster. There is. I fit. He needs to go for a shooter or a few depth pieces.

I’m not sure how we realistically make a best offer for the Bucks excluding Brunson and KAT. I guess if we were to bring Kidd in Giannis could request a trade directly to the Knicks to help our case?

Very interested to see how this comes together. If we do pull this off, I hope the front office can get creative filling in the remaining pieces because the roster will be pretty damn empty :lol:
