I don’t quite understand the timing of trading for Mikal and then the likes of Woj, Ian also suddenly mentioning that the iHart resign is now tougher… nothing changed? So why the update on iHart?

Doesnt make sense to me.

I agree. These guys didn't predict this trade. Let's just see what happens. Maybe I Hart returns, other moves coming perhaps to f
Facilitates a return for I Hart

Good luck bro. Unfortunately, I'm not sure how I'm going to be able to work in between refreshing for Knicks news

Wow a block buster pre draft trade and we still have all our picks tomorrow!! I still think we keep I Hart, call me optimistic ! If not we replace him and still improve. Plus we keep OG Versatile team with shooters and defenders

You know what I noticed? The trade is agreed to in principle. That means they can add teams to this deal in the future to make sure we don't hardcap ourselves and that would allow us to keep ihart. We have Sims, Jeffries, Shake, and Diakite to trade to help not hardcap us. Renounce Burks and Precious and we should be fine. Might have to trade a pick or 2 to do it but its possible.

Be great to keep I Hart. But if I Hart leaves for more then we get an other back up center and keep Precious or some other option. Sign Drummond and keep Precious and draft a center. I guess I love I Hart but can we survive without him ? Yes. Let's see what happens next

Things like this is why we got the cap god he will figure it out.

But I’ve seen elsewhere that aggregating salaries (adding those 2 scrubs to deal) also effectively hard caps us and maybe at more severe 2nd apron.

I wonder if we can decline some cap holds and duck under the tax for a minute to sign a FA with the MLE. We got the right guy to figure all this **** out.

Hopefully we can lock down OG and IHart.

From there I could really go for a Mitch trade - maybe for a legit back-up PG (T Jones)

Use 24 assets to move up for (Edey?), keep Precious and not sure if we will still have MLE available for a vet center or shooter.

where are the minutes for OG?

I'm wondering the same thing. At a minimum makes the Knicks less desperate at the bargaining table.

Donte will move to bench with Deuce, Josh, Precious? and Mikal will be SG UNLESS we have a surprise trade.

Doesnt make sense to me.

The finances shouldn’t have changed unless the Knicks have been told something or have something else in works where they know IHart is going to take bigger deal, maybe they’ve even had sign/trade discussions on him or it’s something else but yeah seems both Begley/Woj were told something.

Personally I want IHart/OG and find a trade for Mitch that gets us legit ball handler / facilitator and we replace Mitch with vet/draft

Sign and trade for Brook Lopez would be awesome. Lopez, Julius, OG, Bridges, Brunson with Precious, Hart, Ragu, Deuce and first round picks tomorrow.
