SUNS trade KD to JAZZ
KNICKS trade KAT to SUNS
JAZZ trades Kessler/Markkanen to KNICKS
Of course, picks and fillers might be included, but this is successful with finances as is. Thoughts?
The only thing is I want to see Towns and Brunson in a real offensive system. That could be historical. You got to explore that possibility. Thibs didn't have a system to maximize them together
if we don't end up adding incentives, i would not mind that one. Markkanen is no KAT but he's good enough.
Kessler + Robinson would provide 48mn of good rim protection. That's invaluable. The rest could concentrate on defending the perimeter for once.
Although I agree, I sense a player shift is underway. If they were running it back, I think they would have stuck with Thibs one more year.

KD is going to work with the Suns FO to move himself to Utah? I don't think that's realistic.
My guess is if Leon tries to get Giannis he wants to keep Kat. OG and more is the obvious trade fodder to me.
Again, Mikal extending or not will matter bigly.
Kolek from Marquette to Milwaukee would be nice for him. He might get some time to play there also.
This regardless of what they do with Giannis.
I see raptors using IQ and JR with picks in a play for the Freak. They have Lillard on the books while he heals. Pun intended.
I prefer Giannis too, but think others can offer more unless this is a 3-team trade. Mikal's trade killed our power for this move directly. I'd take the Freak & Kidd for KAT, Kolek, 1st rd Pick, 2 swaps, & 2 2nd for Kidd any day. I just feel the Bucks want more 1st round picks.
Some experts say SA is the favorite, but why would he go from MIL to SA? He wants to win, but in a bigger international market.
I was just asking a question if Knicks' fans would be happy if the trade I mentioned happened? I know KD wouldn't be thrilled with being on the Jazz, but they have picks everyone wants these days.

SUNS trade KD to MIL
KNICKS trade KAT to SUNS Kolek to MIL plus picks/swaps
MIL trades Giannis to KNICKS
DALS gets two 2nd-round picks for Kidd
This better?
Funny how all these teams to include the Jazz all around the same $$$ in these trades, meant to be? KAT 53 million, Giannis 54, KD 55, Lauri/Kessler 54.
How many Toppins would it take to sweeten these deals? How man Toppins do we have? Shirley we must have some.
I’d rather jump off the Verrazano
KD on the Jazz? You think that's a thing that can happen?

If you call for an Uber to the bridge I know a driver that might be all to happy to take you ONE WAY?
Would not happen but we could just send KAT to Utah for Lauri and W. Kessler? Would fix the Mitch injury concerns, allow OG to move back to the 3 position where is is better sized, resolve the KAT lumbering on defense... etc
Best part is we would gain one more very good player without losing anyone which would enhance our bench depth as Hart could return to a better role as 6th man...
Brunson (D.Wright, Kolek)
Bridges (Deuce, Shamet)
OG (Hart,Dadiet, McCallier)
Markannen (Precious?)
Mitch (Kessler, Hukiport)
Lauri is as soft as KAT but since you can only play 5 at a time our defense wouldn't suffer as much because we could put Kessler at C and Mitch could rotate out to cover. Before we needed Mitch to cover the paint while watching KAT work on his lateral movement in real time...
Did we really create a new thread for a trade idea that involved KD going to the Utah Jazz?
My understanding is that Memphis was very much in the Bridges business last offseason and asked for 4 first rounders. Any chance they still want Kal?
JJJ due a big extension and the team starting to run stale, shake it up?
How about JJJ, Bane, Clarke for Kat, Mikal and Dadiet?
