Utah Trade Deadline Discussion

[infection]

A headline just flashed on my phone saying Porzingis was helped off the floor with a knee injury. If it's serious will this cause some more trade action?

Poor Zingis.

I doubt it changed things very much, the Knicks weren't a playoff team anyway and not sure this injury changed that.

Could We conceivably get Aaron Gordon straight up for Hood?

I'd trade Favors for the Cavs 1st-rd pick, assuming it's not just a pick swap with Brooklyn, but I wouldn't trade Rubio for that.

No, but don’t let that hold us up from asking.

They've already got Fournier and to me they're fairly similar, so not sure they'll feel that compelled to trade Gordon for Hood.

I dunno.. does Rubio figure in our long term plan? If we can get Bradley, I'd start Mitchell and Bradley and so Rubio would be the odd man out there.

 

[NAOS]

my solution is to trade you to the Kings

repped

 

[Darkwing Duck]

Cavs don't have their 2019 pick. They can't trade it.

Rubio is playing like a top-10 PG. He's adjusting to Quin's system pretty well, and his contract is reasonable through next season. You don't trade that for a mid or late 1st-rd pick.

If you want to package Rubio and Hood for the Brooklyn pick and take back a contract like Shumpert, then maybe that's a discussion. You're now counting on Exum, which is a risky proposition.

 

[LoPo]

The Knicks could and should have a fire sale. There is no reason to keep a Courtney Lee, Lance Thomas, O'Quinn or maybe even Kanter. They need to try to lose their remaining games.

Damn, Andy Larsen just got hit by a car in Memphis... Hope he's ok.
