Jazz and Knicks discussing Donovan Mitchell trade per Shams Charania and Tony Jones


The link above is a nice guide on what teams have what picks. Outside of the Knicks, no teams have extra 1st rounders.
Yeah and the terrible protections Charlotte and Washington has on their picks really causes issues on what they can offer.

Toronto is the dark horse imo. They have all their own firsts… they also have Og you could spin to a third team for some firsts and Trent Jr who would get you some stuff or be the piece that helps get the Lakers stuff in the Russ trade.

If you can get 24/26/28 unprotected Raps picks and swaps in 27/29 (with our pick or the Wolves picks we own). Then spin off OG to like Sacramento/Dallas/Phoenix (any team really since he fits anywhere) for a couple unprotected picks… you are pretty close to the medium Knicks offer.
 
I got a half a cow earlier from a neighbor and split it with my SIL & BIL. Think it came out to a little over $5/lb. I haven’t bought beef at a grocery store in years, and nothing I get at restaurants compares to what I eat at home. I rarely order steak anymore, so that saves money too lol.

Yeah it’s certainly going to be more expensive out here in NJ. I haven’t really looked on sites much (just had my wife tell me info and send me link which I looked at for 15 seconds) but I’m curious what the cost would be for non-grass fed. That said, I do love dry aged and definitely notice a difference in taste.

I was about to post about watching Toronto. They can, very quickly and easily, spin up a competitive package to New York. Sacto as well, though I imagine that their discussions were simply due diligence.

We also assume the Raps will continue to be good… but FVV and Siakham are both hitting FA soon or getting mega paydays to stay. Raps window is short so could see them pushing in… Don could also hit FA and leave them. The far out picks and swaps might be better than you’d think. It’s at least a competitive offer to make them sweat. I could see Phoenix giving a couple unprotected picks to get OG and their window closes when CP runs out of gas.

Yeah, Toronto seems like the only team that can really compete in this, but anybody adding Donovan isn't going to want to send a load of picks AND lose quality win now players. Toronto would have to sacrifice win now players to generate the picks necessary to compete with NY. I still think NY has the best package to send out. Having 3 extra 1st rounders and young players who won't lead to immediate winning really sets them up well.
 
Don’t see them doing that now. Kings would have been a good candidate pre-draft.
I’m not sure. Maybe they would. The Kings desperately want to make the playoffs. A lineup of Fox, Mitchell, and Sabonis is certainly one they could sell their fans on (though horribly deficient defensively).

Last time I can recall a team trading a lottery player post-draft, pre-season was the Kevin Love for Andrew Wiggins deal.
 
home recipe. get some long green jalepeno peppers, cut them in half long ways, clean the guts out, leave as many seeds as you want , the more left in the hotter. then fill them with cream cheese and wrap a slice of bacon on each half and stick a toothpick in to hold in place, then put in oven for 15 to 20 minutes depending how you like your bacon on a cookie sheet with alluminum foil on bottom at 400 degrees. take them out and eat them while they are warm. yummy

My wife makes these all the time. We literally have them every time we go camping. I cook them on the grill.

So I might buy a share in a cow. Anyone do this? Grass fed…14 day dry aged…get 100 pounds butchered for $975. 40 pounds of ground beef and then 60 pounds of other good ****…rib eyes, porterhouses, etc. And for the reason you mentioned…stuff has gotten so expensive. Five Guys might be the worse of them. I was so. Annoyed by their price the other day, I took like 14 scoops of peanuts to go.

I did that once. Loved the burger and steaks but also got a bunch of other crap that was a pain.

They also unloaded a pick for Heurter so I just don’t see a great package there. Murray is fine but I’m going to wait until he’s not beating up on summer league squads to make any definitive judgements. Honestly I’d probably prefer the much discussed Miami package to one the Kings can put out.
 
Best fast food fries, in order, best to worst:

Wendy's
McDonald's
Five Guys
Popeye's
Raising Cane's crinkle cut
Del Taco crinkle cut
Arby's (curly and crinkle are even - and note all of these last 3 are about even)
Carl's Jr.
Chik-fil-A
Burger King
In-n-Out

I might be able to hook you up, but shipping could be a pain. I get mine for $3 a pound for all cuts and ground.

That’s a good deal. I get my best beef from my uncle who won’t let me pay for it, except butchering cost. But as the family grows we need more meat and I hate to ask for more free beef, so I get some from our neighbor. Pretty sweet deal.
