Discount Donte locked in! Still half the cost.

It was pretty much always the case, but official now, Either we're going into the 2nd for Mitch or he's gone. No fancy finagling or tightrope walking to fit him in.

yeah I have no idea how they're handling that. Mitch is valuable but we've stood by him during some ****ty times when he was an injury waiting to happen, watching his bad FT% get worse, and no development of his offense game at all. Yet through that we still love him. I hope he realizes other situations might not offer the same love, and he and we find a way to keep our weird relationship going.

Well said! If his mental health is not great is the stress of moving, moving to a new city, a new team, and coach going to help?
What money is being offered? WE just saw "Contract year Mitch"....This might be the best of him. Peak Mitch. If so, does he further decline? Remember he broke his wrist a few years ago? The ankle? the feet?

Mitch on Facebook:

The last two weeks have been the highlight of my life, and I am finding it difficult to articulate my appreciation for this extraordinary moment. After battling my personal demons and continuing to push forward, I am grateful to everyone who has supported me on my path to becoming a world champion. The fact that I now have my own day, June 25th, is simply astonishing. I am still trying to process everything that has happened, and I would like to express my heartfelt thanks to God, my friends, and family. Your support during my lowest points, when I felt I didn't belong, has been instrumental in helping me overcome my struggles and persevere. I appreciate you all. Thank you.🤍

Impossible to understand what is behind it all, but if I had to guess about where Mitch may be safest as a person it would be with the same club he's called his home since he entered the league.

A change of circumstances can sometimes be liberating, but it can also be disruptive for someone trying to keep healthy structures for their life in place.

I wish Mitch well whether he remains a Knick or not, but if he chooses to stay he should know Knicks fans care about him and he's got a home with us if he wants to stay.

We haven't even officially started Free Agency and this has already been an insane off season.

We got movement on big names:
Giannis
LeBron
Lamelo
Randle
Ja
Naz (does he count as a headliner?)

Trade watches ongoing with:
Brown
Duren
KD
AD
Kawhi

Throw in a handful of utility guys moving around.

I don't remember it ever being this chaotic. Maybe 2010?

Jock Landale and the Hawks have agreed to a one-year contract worth $14 million.
Between the Grizzlies and Hawks, Landale appeared in 67 games in 2025-26. Serving mainly as Onyeka Okongwu’s backup until a high ankle sprain ended his season in early April, the 6-foot-11 center averaged 9.1 points and 4.1 rebounds in 19.4 minutes for the Hawks. Landale’s return fortifies Atlanta’s center rotation, which the team added to in the draft by selecting Zuby Ejiofor with the 23rd overall pick.

Looks like there is a tier of centers getting 14-15/million per. Have to think Mitch is/wants to be in that group.
Maybe Nick Richards, who has made 5 million/per the last few years, is the target?

The other front offices are like Roy Scheider in Jaws:

3 wing defenders and a PG and C offensive juggernauts seemed like huge win. Guarding the PG and C seem to be limiting factors. 3 3&D wings that don’t require the ball to impact the game seems to be best use of other resources.

I hope the knicks don’t undervalue a lock down center at backup.

You know I gonna spin wit it

2031 and 2033 unprotected firsts for Kawhi. He will be in his 40s at that point. Wow. I sort of thought the distant unprotected pick stuff would die down for a bit. Guess not.

If the Knicks magically manage to wrap up Mitch for another contract, it will be so interesting to run back the ENTIRE rotational squad from last year 1 thru 10. I can't remember the last time the Knicks have done that.
