It's so dumb...

Basically teams conspiring to not deal for Matthews because they want the minimum salary.

Theres no way Mirotic should go for a young player and 4 2nds and Matthews can't get anything...

Mirotic has + value, Wes does not.

Because the Knicks might be saying to them, "look, if the pick hits Zion, it's no longer available so now's your chance at it."

It's similar to trading any prospect, just with much more tangible odds.



The Knicks aren't gonna trade for AD until the offseason cause if they traded for him now they wouldn't be able to sign two max players but if they wait until the offseason they can sign two max players and then make the AD trade and have a big 3. The Knicks will be waiting with the Celtics until the offseason to be in on AD or B.Beal or any big money player that's available for trade.

Highly doubt, we’ll see anymore NYK deals. Just no sensible market for anyone.

Vonleh

Mathews

If we can’t get no assets for one of these guys it’s failure.

Even more pressure on Boston. If the playoffs started today, it would be Celtics-Bucks round 1. I hope they get f*cking swept.


they're not even set to meet in round 2 right now. the bucks would play miami in round 1 today.
