100% agree. I have no idea why some people want to have fun and joke around.

It was boring stupid ****
Why are you talking about their forum on here?
Someone tell @Knox the deal is 6 1sts + 2 pick swaps + Fournier + Toppin + Quickley or Grimes
Who is @knox? Or are you telepathically projecting over to the Knicks forum?
This thread struck me as an accurate breakdown of previous mega trades and the Knicks’ position which would still be a haul but not to my satisfaction.

The summary is that he’s saying a draft-centric package of:
-‘23/‘25/‘27 unprotected Knicks picks
-2 protected picks owed to the Knicks (“5” picks)
-swaps in ‘24 and ‘26
-1 of Toppin/Quickley/Grimes
Is what the Knicks should be comfortable offering because then they’ll still have assets for the next big move.
Here’s my rebuttal:
-I’m not sure the Jazz can even swap in ‘24, but in no universe should that be accepted over ‘28
-this is functionally less than the Jazz got for Gobert which is basically a non-starter in my mind.
-It should specifically be a primary goal of the organization to prevent the Knicks from being able to make another big move as that could damage the value of the later picks and kinda defeats the whole point of the trade: the Jazz need premium compensation.
-The Knicks have too many guards as it is so Quickley or Grimes are natural candidates to go and the Jazz need something resembling a PF to work with.
