New York Knicks +200
Miami Heat +200
Los Angeles Lakers +350
Orlando Magic +400
Golden State Warriors +750

The trade deadline according to Zach Lowe. The only Knicks scuttlebutt he passes along are:

(1) A likely Austin Rivers buy-out if no trade can be found; and

(2) A potential Oladipo trade assuming it can be done without giving up much value. He mentions Elf and/or Knox + a heavily-protected first. Even that seems too much for this post-injury version of Dipo.

He doesn’t connect the Knicks to any of the guys we’ve discussed who could actually be useful.

I'm hearing reports that Perry is trying to beat down Rose's door to get him to trade for Gordon and Dipo to get the 2016 Magic back together.

They should take it and run, grant is a nice player but doesn’t fit their timeline, get those picks

Spoiler:
The New York Knicks are sitting on a league-high $15 million in cap room, and league sources said they are investigating ways to use it now. Could that include a trade for Victor Oladipo? The Rockets might have to lower their ask if they are determined to move Oladipo now rather than risk him leaving for nothing in free agency.

The Rockets could sign-and-trade Oladipo this summer, but a number of rumored suitors -- including the Knicks -- will have cap room to sign him outright. Should any of those teams give up anything to trade for him now? It depends how much they think he would help their playoff push, and on their appetite for paying him big money over many seasons.

Oladipo has not been very good in Houston. He was pretty blah last season after returning from injury. He looked more like his pre-injury self over nine games this season in Indiana, but how much should anyone read into those nine games? How much is Houston's overall dysfunction draining Oladipo's game now?

Before the season, teams with some interest in Oladipo were taking a wait-and-see approach, league sources said. They wanted to watch him play before forking over real stuff for him in a trade. Nothing that has happened since should change that. If the Knicks can absorb his contract for one or two players they don't really need (Elfrid Payton and Kevin Knox II?) and one heavily protected first-round pick, should they do that? Maybe. I'm skeptical the Rockets are getting much better for Oladipo now.

• If the Knicks can't trade Austin Rivers, they could buy him out, sources said. Expect the Bucks to show interest in signing Rivers in that scenario to take some of D.J. Augustin's minutes. Would the Lakers have interest in Rivers as an eager scorer who could soak up some of the shot-creation load while LeBron James and Anthony Davis recover?

They could have Elf Knox and the DET 2nd at best or the DAL pick top 25 protected

I was interested in their IND portion of the convo. If they're willing to just pass on Holiday, I'm in. If they want to dump MCD to save money, I'm in.

I don’t see the Knicks making any moves, I think they will be active but nothing will come to fruition. I do think they should be looking to add depth for sure, just don’t see Rose giving out any picks or young players for a rental

I’d honestly do that for Randle and I think we could get that plus a good young player.

Again I love Randle I want him to stay but that would be too enticing to pass up!!!!

Having McDermott take Toppin's minutes would be a major upgrade for this group. Loved him while he was here. He didn't shoot it as well as he's capable of in his time here but he's a great cutter as well as a good shooter. He's a good hybrid 3/4 to fill in next to Barrett and Randle.

I can definitely see the Magic trading Gordon for Dipo. Houston sucks but have some talented pieces.

Cam Reddish is trash..... but I am not going to lie if we could get him for some future seconds I would be ok with it.

Mind you I know he is trash...... but look what Thibs did with the trash we have, and maybe RJ can inspire him to grow up and do something.

Since becoming a full time starter, last 18 games for Rubio

11.9 PPG 2.8 RPG 7.6 APG 1.2 SPG
46% on 8.4 FGA 39% on 3.7 3PA 83% on 3.3 FTA

Erratic from game to game but those are the averages. He would probably come super duper cheap. Somehow MIN is up by the tax YIKES

would love to get gordon. he might satisfy that lavine itch the board seems to have. Can see gordon playing a bruising sf , this probably marries rj to the backcourt. More of a loaded frontcourt like where he had at duke.

Big time yes to rubio! Even if he a C level starter, he is better than our D level starters.
Right now there is no rose debate to me, Rose will not be starter. Rose to me is better.
,i have rose jersey, rose shoes. He isnt a starter anymore so i think that is an incorrect narrative.
