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

I'm happy if some of those are unprotected.

At least 3 and we’re in business. Would rather have swaps than the protected picks but hopefully it’s both.

Lmao

What if the Jazz had a radio guy leak a Don trade was almost done, but it's not the Knicks, so the Knicks panic call to get a better offer in.

Now that **** would be absolutely brilliant.

And the fact that they tried to hype up Pleiss, Tomic’s backuo in Europe, as some kind of piece was ridiculous.

Kanter got a max? Was that because of the cap explosion thing?

I think it was prior to the cap explosion. 2015.

From Fred Katz article today:

There is one possible snafu regarding the first-round picks.

There is an excellent chance the NBA will open up a tampering investigation into the Knicks’ recruitment of Brunson, whether or not one of the other 29 teams files official tampering charges. Reports of an agreement between the Knicks and Brunson, who officially signed his four-year contract with New York this month, came out before the two sides could legally negotiate. The Knicks signaled they were confident they could sign him when they began dumping salary days before Brunson’s contract with the Mavericks would expire. There are all of the personal relationships too.


Danny steps in... why don't you give em to us before the league takes em... thanks. Maybe this means they give us more of their own picks and retain the other picks they own to do deals. I doubt they get a first round penalty but one small detail I haven't seen anywhere else.

I've been wondering if part of Danny's leverage is - either give us the picks or I'm filing tampering charges too and you gonna give them to the league and will be left without picks and without Mitchell..

The holdup on the trade is the Knicks want us to waive our right to a tampering investigation.

I wouldn't underestimate that possibility. I think dude's right though. I doubt the league would rip the picks if they were used before the hammer came down. New York keeps their other ones and Don,, we get what we want, and all sides walk away with what they want.

BRUHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

Does anyone remember Dalamon's thread where he said Pleiss had the best shooting mechanics of all time?

Fantastic. Should be leverage to squeeze a little more out of the deal. Ainge should blackmail them.

Did he coin the phrase “unreal shooting mechanics”? Or where did that come from?
