NYK-LAL-MIL (manifesting this trade for my Knicks) 

Post#1 » by Toine85 » Tue Jul 15, 2025 4:01 am

NYK trades: KAT, OG, Mitch, Dadiet, Tyler Kolek, Deuce
NYK receives: LeBron, Bronny, Giannis, Andre Jackson Jr

WHY FOR NYK? Reunite Bron and Mike Brown. Go all-in for the championship with the East in tatters next year. Fill out the roster with min vets who would be willing to play with LeBron/Giannis

LAL trades: LeBron, Bronny, Dalton Knecht
LAL receives: Mitch, OG, Tyler Kolek, Deuce

WHY FOR LAL? Bring in defense around Luka with Mitch, OG, and Deuce.

MIL trades: Giannis, Andre Jackson Jr.
MIL receives: KAT, Dadiet, Dalton Knecht

If Giannis is ready to leave, getting an All-NBA player plus two first rounders from last year’s draft is not a bad return.

This is hilariously terrible for Milwaukee. Probably 5 1sts short on value. I am fine with the LAL portion if LeBron and NYK want each other. It may also be a good way to keep their core financially viable. Think they should get to keep Kolek or McBride.

This isn’t even remotely close. There’s realistically no combination of players or picks the Knicks have that would interest the Bucks in a Giannis trade. Even beyond the fact that it’s laughable value for Giannis, if the Bucks are trading Giannis it’s to completely blow up and rebuild, they’re going to start a bidding war around the league for actually interesting prospects/a crapload of picks. KAT does nothing for them in that regard and “two former first rounders from last year’s draft” is a polite way to describe two young guys who don’t move the needle whatsoever in a Giannis trade.

I think you did a good job of putting together details for the OP. Appreciate that honestly.

But Giannis trade part isn't possible. The LeBron part has legs.

Wow, umm, what can I say that hasn't already been said?

Teams are going to lineup to beat this offer for Giannis. It's horrible. 5 firsts short, easily. And why would they want KAT? They're going to be looking for rebuilding value.

This is just terrible for Milwaukee...

So Mil hands NY Giannis just because why? A Knicks fan wants it?

Why do you people keep trying to dump LeBron on the Knicks?

Actually, it’s an absolutely atrocious return.
