![]() Tweet was deleted or there was problem with the URL: Makes sense because different sources are privy to different info. The fact that he heard similar from some of his own sources makes me believe something is going on. |

That said, the Lakers side of the deal is too good to be true. They essentially get to trade one of the worst contracts in basketball (plus the standard THT and a future 2nd LOL) for three guys who are each more useful than Westbrook. I think the Lakers would do that deal in a millisecond. The Knicks would get to keep all of their young guys so that's great for the Knicks. I guess the question is whether Utah would actually trade DM for just picks and the ability to get out of Bojan's deal. Seems iffy to me. (Seeing how Lebron would handle Julius might be fun, by the way.) On edit- just realized Bojan is only owed one year. Now I'm really not sure what LA brings to the table in this deal. I sincerely believe Randle/Fournier/Rose are all tradeable. Why would Utah take on Westbrook rather than those 3? |

![]() I've seen it with Grimes included as well. Hopefully that's not the case.

It would make the Lakers serious contenders again. The Knicks? 2nd round seems realistic. Would want to see the picks we would be giving up. |

That is that the deal will most likely get done as it seems the Knicks have what Jazz want. Will be a matter of who flinches first and gives in. Clear Jazz will move on and Knicks are ready and able to give an acceptable offer. 'Knicks focus should be on players that have grown up playing soccer or cricket' - Triplethreat 8/28/2020

The Knicks will be expensive heading into the 2024-25 season, especially if they add Mitchell to the mix. Assuming Barrett receives a max contract or anywhere near it, the salaries of just the projected starting five of Brunson, Mitchell, Barrett, Randle and Robinson will add up to darn near the entire salary cap. The roster will be in danger of going into the tax. And paying the tax is fine and dandy … but any owner wants to be more than just mildly competitive if the bills are so expensive. |

LA gives up absolutely nothing, dumps Westbrook and adds 3 quality players. This **** is so made up. Is this someones fantasy trade disguised as a real rumor? |

I still don’t think it’s a bad trade if you force LA to send picks to Utah and cut back on our unprotected picks outgoing and keep rose The Future is Bright!
