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

I have almost an entire thesis in my head about why leaving the toilet seat up is the logical, practical and even moral thing to do. It ties in with my other thesis on why you shouldn't clean out the lint trap after you dry your clothes.
 
Knicks will buckle tomorrow. Don’t play poker with Danny Ainge. He’ll take your money, your clothes, eat your dinner and impregnate your wife.

The longer they play, the more it’s going to cost them. I actually think the Knicks need Mitchell more than the Jazz do at this point.

If the Jazz keep him? Ok. Not ideal, but fine. Trade him to another team? As long as it’s an asset haul, I don’t think anyone connected to the Jazz cares. . .

. . . But if New York gets thiiiiiisssss close to trading for Mitchell and then it doesn’t happen - both Knicks fans and Mitchell will be unhappy about those results, while DA just bides his time for the right offer to come in.
 
Again, I’m shaking hands at 5 firsts, 3 swaps, Quickley, Toppin, matching salary. And I prefer that to 6 firsts and 2 swaps as it puts the Jazz in control of more consecutive years of their drafts which matters if (when?) the bottom falls out in NY.

The key to the pick swaps is that they are 2025 and later. Since we are tanking there is no point in having one of them over the next few years.

24/26/28 I’m thinking we just take 26/28 no real reason to push for 24.

You’d rather have a 2024 pick swap than an extra first?
 


I just listened to this interview and Tony also said that sources told him a deal was close Tuesday evening but the Knicks backed off a little bit. He said sources from both sides have told him that conversations are continuing but nothing is imminent.

Another interesting thing he said is that the Jazz scouting department gave a 20 minute presentation on why they should draft Jaden McDaniels, they went with Dok instead, and he said that move killed this era of the Jazz.

If Danny wants to go for perfection, perhaps he can force Rudy Gay down the Knicks’ throats too.
You saying Danny should give them the old Gay deep throat too... you a savage.
