I myself don't think knicks need to do this 20 games in. If they think they can take it all, then there is a process and it must play out.
I did not expect if there as a departure from last year its no going to be seen in the first 20 games. If they are dilligent in a process then it must be given time. We all know there is not guarantee a process executes as hoped.

I don't know what leverage he has given he has one more year then a player option 62mm after. So he can be traded anywhere.
Also, what do they want in return? Its a good time for them to make a trade and rebuild as a franchise. So I don't agree its a "Nightmare" situation as depicted. Its just good business. It should be mutual but what Bucks want and what is offered likely needs a third team if he is to be made happy.

Im always down for a sugar buzz type trade and love the starphuch aspect of it!

If Greek wants Knicks we have to go get him - somehow.

Ultimately he and Jalen may not work but we aren’t serious with Kat being #2.

Kat as #3 ok but not as #2.

Greek may not age well but he’s immediately greatest player in Knick history - don’t think it’s close.

NBA TRADE REPORT site had very interesting 3-way trade with NY/Bucks/Suns.

Knicks Greek/D-Brooks/G-Allen
Suns. Kat/Kuzma/Pacome
Bucks. J-Green/OG/M-Williams/multiples 1sts and multiple 2nds

So Knicks ship out picks Kat/OG/Pacome for Greek/Brooks/Allen — tough to lose both Kat/OG but Brooks is tough kid and defender and Allen not chopped liver.

Man Windhorst saying “it will be Giannis telling Bucks who he wants and Bucks trying to make best possible deal with that team” —— that gives me hope but Giannis has to demand us and nobody else.

Waits for Heat or Lakers to sweep in

Timing of CP3 being sat down along with this Giannis news seems intriguing as well —— maybe Clips serve as 3rd or 4th team in larger Giannis deal or a place to send Kat?

CP3 is of no matter to me but could see him agreeing to come to NY to play for Leon with Greek for 1 run.

Giannis is the big get that puts us right there with OKC. If you can flip KAT + assets for him you gotta do it 100%.

Giannis with either Mikal or OG would be nasty defensively, and we might even be able to have all 3.

I mean DDV isn't so likeable either until he's on your team. Allen is a better version of DDV.

I’m in on Giannis.

I’d love to keep Mikal and OG. I’d be more willing to make KAT, Brunson, Hart, Mitch… available.

KAT / Bridges / Dadiet for Giannis / Turner works.
Brunson / Hart for Giannis works straight up. The numbers are surprisingly accurate.

I know “play with Brunson” is the media claim, but for me Bridges / OG / Giannis is the best trio you can end up with in a Giannis based team.

I value guys that play both sides of the ball much higher than anything. I think the sport fundamentally undervalues guys like OG and Mikal.

You know I gonna spin wit it

Lakers probably get him by offering Gabe Vincent and Bronny.

If this was Luka or Any top 5 under 26, I would have said give them anything they want.
But Knicks want to win now. Greek Freak needs lots of shooters. And Bucks want picks.
Looks like it would be Towns to keep Bucks competitive. Knicks don’t have many expiring deals if they want to clear cap. Not many picks. So thinking Knicks may not be the best for Milwaukee.
Unless Greek says it’s Knicks only.

Trading Brunson for Giannis defeats the purpose. But even if it didn't, Brunson is probably the most untouchable player in the NBA. He IS the franchise, he's not going anywhere. Can't believe that even needs to be said after decades of trying to get a legit franchise player like him in his prime.

KAT, Mitch, Deuce, Dadiet for Giannis, Kuzma works contract wise. Give them our 1st round pick and WAS pick also.

The only thing that gives me pause is losing Big Mitch

This trade is unsuccessful until you add Mitch to the Bucks. Interestingly, the trade machine says that this trade does not affect our win totals.
