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

[Handlogten's Heros]

On the Hoops Collective podcast, MacMahon thinks a deal with the Jazz and Knicks gets done before the season starts and Windhorst doesn't think they will be able to come to an agreement before the season. They also discussed a hypothetical deal between the Jazz and Lakers, the money works for a Westbrook and THT for Bogey, Conley, Clarkson and Beverley trade...MacMahon and Bontemps think the Lakers would have to give up both of their 1sts in that deal and Windhorst thinks they would only have to give up one of them.

If Ainge is trying to recreate the KG/Pierce deal to Brooklyn… the Lakers trade is it.

I hope both of these deals get done before training camp… would be nice to not have rumors all season and get a nice clean break.

The stories about how some in NY would rather keep Grimes instead of RJ are interesting. He’s an easier player to fit both on court and for cap flexibility. I go back and forth on RJ but if we could get 3 unprotected picks and RJ I’d be happy to pay him and find out what he becomes. He’s clearly a hard worker and plays a position that even if he isn’t an all star could be worth a lot of money.

8-9 extra picks, some high picks the next two years, and RJ isn’t a horrible start to a rebuild.

It's probly going to cost the Lakers a FRP to move off Westbrook. I can't see us doing all of Bogey, Conley, Clarkson and Beverley for one additional pick.

If we could get their 27 and 29 and they're both unprotected, I would absolutely do that deal. Those picks could be very valuable.

Bingo Bogey, Clarkson, and probably Bev are for sure worth a Royce O'Neale level FRP on their own, the idea that they would only fetch one collectively is absurd.

A distant Lakers pick isnt just a random 1st round pick tho.

Plus you wont get a lot of teams willing to give up 1st right now. You going to have to wait til the trade deadline when the competition landscape is more clear.

Still for taking all four of these guys it should problably cost two, AND a swap.

Hell no

Russ also has value. He's an expiring contract

 

[Saint Cy of JFC]

Only Bogey has true first value. Everyone else is more like 2 second rounders type value

If you get lucky at the deadline maybe you can get a first for Clarkson.

Where things stand on Kevin Durant and Donovan Mitchell trade talks with a month until camp: Shams Inside Pass

The latest from NBA insider Shams Charania and what sources are telling him about the Kevin Durant and Donovan Mitchell situations.

theathletic.com

The Jazz and Knicks are in discussions on a trade that would send Donovan Mitchell to New York, according to sources. A deal is not considered imminent yet, but the Knicks are motivated to acquire Mitchell and have proposed new packages to Utah’s new front office led by CEO Danny Ainge.

New York made a recent offer of Evan Fournier, Obi Toppin, additional salary and two unprotected first-round draft picks (five total), league sources tell me and The Athletic’s Tony Jones. The Jazz’s asking price has been more significant than that.

Mitchell has three guaranteed years left on his contract, allowing the Jazz to bring him into the upcoming campaign and take a patient approach to trade discussions. The Charlotte Hornets and Washington Wizards have been among the teams interested in Mitchell as well, sources said.

I can see why no deal has happened yet. Knicks still low-balling us. Toppin, filler, 2 real firsts, and three protected junk firsts.

LOL. GTFO, Knicks. If that’s their best offer, I’d take three unprotected and better players to flip from someone else.

If Knicks are serious, throw in Grimes, unprotect a third pick, and take back Rudy Gay.
