If win now
Why didn’t Orlando just trade for KD then ?

#1 Maybe they want a more long term window #2 maybe KD has a say where he goes....

JJJ can not defend centers, doesn’t box out, doesn’t rebound and is another guy who needs shots. It’s great value for mikal, which is why it won’t happen, but it doesn’t actually fix anything.

Any lineup that still has Kat at center is the wrong lineup. How much more evidence is needed.

KAT for JJJ

If Mitch becomes starting C as the first guy says, I think we'd need a backup big C. Precious can play small ball C and PF but can't be the main backup. Not sure if Huk will be ready but if he is then it solves problems

Soon Folksssssssss!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

JJJ + KAT front court = no boards and in the penalty 1.5 minutes into the quarter

[The KnicksFix]

If the Knicks ask for JJJ for Mikal , best believe they’re asking for all those picks too

I think Huk is capable of being the back up 5.

We need to get as much value as possible out of these cheap contracts

Man….I didn’t think he was that good

[thebuzzardman]

Magic >>> Knicks as of now

[Reign23]

of course the first fake JJJ trade has also DDV coming back

It doesnt have to but it might....the concept of what a trade without him is still evident...just remove DDV and have a third team take a smaller salary while giving them minor 2nd round draft comp to counterbalance CBA rules.

or just forget about him.

I think all Knick trades have to be one for one. They’re way too thin to lose a rotation player.

[RHODEY]

In this scenario....The assumption is you are replacong him with JJJ and then Huk gets more minutes too

but why? Mikal matches JJJs contract 1 for 1 ....Mitch can come off the bench.

It could be just mainly for Bridges. But just like the KAT/Randle negotiations...sometimes the other team wants more or a certain player added. So just presenting a few ranges of what it could be....

Yes I could see them wanting more but I'd just add non rotational contract player like Dadiet, or Kolek, Mitch is too important imo.

This.

Not that I disagree with you, but KD leaving and no Mikal resign (assuming the KD trade is got KAT), they'd be well under the 1st apron.

KD doesn't want the pressure. The Knicks aren't letting Mikal walk either. You don't trade 5 FRPs for a rental or future cap space. This scenario will never happen.

For a guy like JJJ or Giannis I think that would not apply. They absolutely would let Mikal be the bridge for a player like that.

Why are these teams going to trade valuable players/franchise level players, for basically scraps? How does something like that work without a player forcing his way here? Several other teams can blow our offers away.

Until a player makes that commitment, any trade ideas should be realistic for everyone.

If Milwaukee trades Giannis they are gonna want a rebuild package. We can't help that.

If Memphis puts JJJ on the block, they are gonna want more than Bridges and scraps. They aren't gonna make a lateral move when they can get more.

People need to start focusing on the bench this summer. Our starting five is one of the best in the league. The rotations/minutes were a huge obstacle. Second to the systems we ran and some flat out terrible decision making.

Players like Grayson Allen and Royce O'Neal etc Teams looking to take little back to get cap relief. Much more realistic than the trades pushed around in here. KAT for Giannis? Why would Milwaukee want to do that? We don't have picks to sweeten deals no matter how equal we can match salaries.

Never say never though right? See OG/Mikal/KAT. Just trying to keep things a little more realistic for my expectations.

I don't think we're gonna see any huge trades involving us to be honest.

MLE + vet min depth signings seem likely

[MrDollarBills]

Dallas fans have to be livid right now. Both Mikal Bridges and Desmond Bane got more value back than Luka Doncic.
