Jake Fischer has a notebook coming out this morning and Bleacher Report is releasing some snippets..
Nets are offering Kyrie a shorter term incentive laden deal, expected to talk up until the 29th deadline..
Knicks are trying to clear 25 million to sign Brunson
Givony specifically really seems to be holding water for Indiana. At one point on Lowe's podcast he brought up 11 AND Obi for Brogdon

Detroit has traded Jerami Grant to Portland for 2025 first-round pick via Milwaukee, sources tell ESPN.

Detroit swaps 2022 second-round picks -- getting 36 for 46 -- with Portland, too. Denver gets a 2025 second-round pick back from Portland, and Portland sends the most favorable 2026 second-round pick between Portland and New Orleans to Detroit, sources said.

The 2025 first-round pick via Milwaukee is protected Nos. 1-4, sources said. Detroit sends Grant into a $21M trade exception, and Pistons now have $43 million in salary cap space for free agency.
Doesn't seem like the Knicks are interested in moving Randle much to our collective chagrin
I have a feeling they're going to give Bridges a max offer sheet with reports that Charlotte is hesitant to match. Would be a nice fit there with Cade

#1 Awesome trade for @trailblazers complete no-brainer at that price #2 The dream/fantasy of Randle to Portland is officially dead

This really doesn't make any sense to me.
How can they possibly keep him when he was so lousy on and off the court last year ?
On top of that, the young guys play better playing at a faster pace while he likes to hold the ball and slow the game down putting the offense at a standstill .
Last but most important, He completely blocks OBI development who will only get 13 minutes a night if Randle is still here.
The most important issue is getting rid of Randle and everything else should be secondary
He was restricted, Denver wanted to match but he asked them not to so he can have a bigger role in detroit

but a bigger role in Detroit instead of re-signing with Denver?

Gotcha. Thanks.
Begley thinks that will come down to if the #Knicks are willing to let go of either IQ, Obi, or Grimes with multiple picks.

If its of those 3, give up grimes

Ehhhhhhh. Might be too steep for my taste. I really would love Ivey, but the price is becoming too outrageous. I'm not even thrilled about trading both first rounders next year.

I don't agree with it but my guess is he doesn't have any trade value. If this regime has shown us anything it's that they're all about asset maximization and they're probably hoping he can have a bounce back year rather than attach a pick to move him.

Oh yeah, for sure. Grimes is easily the most expendable of the three.
And find a way to rid ourselves of Randle
That's the hallmark of the Rose regime thus far
Williams. I just think he’s a better basketball player. I love his rim protection. His 2.8 blocks to 2.1 fouls per game speaks to his defensive IQ. Love the way he runs the floor, his lob-finishing, screen-setting, offensive efficiency. No concerns about motor/work ethic w/him

but this is starting to feel like the deadline, lots of rumors and Knicks do nothing..

Yeah i have defended them, saying i will wait until thwir big move, but right now its frustrating..
Cant go into next year with the same exact team
I liked him whenever I saw Wiscy play.

Lol. Come on. Let us dream.
But also said he thinks it’s more likely they move up, down or out then stay there
Funny, I speculated the other day that Portland may be a good trade partner, but I think trading Randle and 11th for their pick makes more sense for Portland
steve in ky : 6/20/2022 6:57 pm : link : reply
He might be a good fit there and then the Knicks use that pick, the 11th, and a few of their other accumulated picks to trade up for Ivey.
Fine, then make the best out of it, Get a real PG here, take the playmaming duties and reduce Randles role so he can just be a double-double guy..
and play him and Obi together for 10 to 15 minutes a night ao Obi can get 25 minutss night..
Yeah it still makes no sense to me they didnt play more together, but there were a lot of questionable decisions last year

going to have to give up a ton to get Ivey, especially since the Wizards, Grizzlies, and possibly other teams are also interested. It's a bidding war. I'd inquire, but would likely say no because of the cost.
If Ivey is that good then he wouldn't last until four, especially since this isn't a great draft class from what I've read. Everybody needs a PG. The game is a lot more wide open that it was decades ago when teams were desperate for "bigs."
First off Ivey is not a PG, he is a combo guard, can play the 1 or 2..
Orlando just drafted Suggs and Cole Anthony..They need a big..
OKC has SGA, they could draft Ivey but most likely get a stretch big to pair with SGA..
Houston just drafted Green and Porter Jr, why would they take Ivey over 1 of the bigs?
Like taking a big over a wing because you already have Clyde Drexler on the roster.
The Kings will decide on the clock what offer they accept for Jaden Ivey per Woj.
