Chriss/Bender + 4th > Porzingis

I don't understand the drama.

[Revived]

Minnesota don't do it!! We'll give you a better offer for #7 than Boston can!

Zing going to Celtics. Gambo just ruled out the Suns on twitter...

it's been a fun 48 hours guys

I trust Gambo but I wonder why Gambo is so sure about what Boston's offering for Porzingis or what NYK is offering Boston for Porzingis?

He can read Ainge's mind

...he's an attention whore

I hope Chriss drops 70 on the Knicks next season in Madison Square.

[sunsbum]

Good.

This has happened to us so many times now, I'm not even mad about it. I guess we're accustomed to being second fiddle. I think it is okay to miss out on this one, though.

[SkinnyOMiller]

Welp, that was fun. Guess it will be between Fox and Tatum now for the #4.

[rsavaj]

so this likely means Jackson's off the board too

Tatum vs Isaac vs Fox, who you got

[jredsaz]

No Prozingis or Jackson. Can trace this all back to the Brandon Knight trade and losing that Lakers pick. We have that I bet we get Prozingis

Friend who's a knicks fan is saying there is word going around that the C's don't want to part with Picks AND Brown. So it'd be one or the other. Barring a change of heard from PJ, I have a feeling KP is staying put.

[JMac1]

Listening to 1580 right now!

[jredsaz]

So pissed and disheartened right now.

Isaac or Fox.

So here's my thought. Knicks want Jackson badly. I don't feel like the Knicks want to deal with the Celtics since they are not only in the same conference but in the same division. I don't think Phil wants to see KP destroy the Knicks 4 times a year for the next decade. I think Phil can live with KP going to the West though.
I think maybe Ainge doesn't want to choose Josh Jackson UNLESS he has a deal in place, otherwise they will take Tatum since they can sell him as the next Paul Pierce. Ainge doesn't want to pull a McD and take Jackson just to hold him ransom because what if the Bulls/Knicks decide they don't want him?
So if the Celtics do take Tatum then I am 50/50 on whether or not the Suns take Jackson to keep him or to trade him. I think if both the Bulls/Knicks want Jackson badly enough, we don't have to negotiate too hard and may only have to give up a Miami pick to make things work (maybe more IDK). Really, I think we hold all the cards once the Celtics make their decision. Now, if the Celtics do take Jackson, then the Suns are SOL.

I would take Tatum. I believe he will improve his D enough to be serviceable.
