2019 Trade Deadline Discussion

Since we’re talking about the Knicks and cap space:

How does Porzingis fit into all of this? The Spurs are ‘looking to pursue him in free agency’ which tells me there’s any doubt that they retain him.

I don’t think there’s a more perfect fit for this team given it’s needs at this point (legit perimeter threat that is also a legit 4 and is a permanent mismatch, highly productive, protects the rim, can play backup 5).

This team plugging in Zingis would be absolutely ****ing legit.

Not a trade but just worth mentioning that former nr. 1 pick is tearing up the G league now. I hope he can get another crack at NBA. Shooting 3's at this absurd percentage may be worth giving him a shot?

Wow.

He's been over 40% for a few years. Shooting seems legit... defense, desire, and other stuff was always an issue there too, but dude may have grown up a bit. 26 years old... IDK if we had a roster spot I'd take a shot.
 
Too lazy to dig up the offseason wishlist thread, but I'm kinda pissy that the Cavs took such a huge salary dump for such a mediocre 1st from Milwaukee. Their salary situation will allow them to retain Brogdon, Middleton, and very likely Bledsoe if they want. They may lose Lopez because they don't have full bird rights on him (if capulator is correct). I think we'd have to go almost full max on Malcolm to get him and even then they may just match because they are in keep Giannis happy mode. If Cavs hadn't solved all their tax issues it would be a real question if they'd match $20ish M a year.

That was a weird article... seemed to be like FA in 4-5 years... not current year. Knicks will match whatever offer he gets... trade him later if need be. Not an option at all... could do a 4 year max with player option in Year 3 and make him a FA a year earlier maybe, but they still match.

There's a lot of guys in the G-League shooting similar percentages with better overall stats. It's not as absurd as it looks.
