Hey, Joe -

Being so intent on dealing someone keeps the price down.

If we do nothing further we should be improved frm a year ago (Reddish in for Burks, Hartenstein/Sims for Noel, Brunson/Rose/McBride for Rose/Burks/IQ, Fournier/Grimes share emerging with IQ the floater)       

But other teams improved as well.


When you think about it we have too many usable parts.  The dealing of 3 for 1 for Mitchell makes plenty o sense in that respect.  Grimes/IQ/Sims is best - with 4 picks, 3 of them Knicks unprotecteds

I still like Obi at backup 4.  Though Hartentein may get some in addition to playing the 5.

Maybe Sims sits a bit longer

You cannot count on health and the only problem caused by overstocking talent is when you have to pay them. Also, internal competition sharpens everybody.

The only silver lining I see to a Mitchell deal is that Fournier definitely goes.

It's interesting that all of us seem to agree with this. I actually think we could be much better because our promising young talent is developing, and we now have a point guard to facilitate all that.

Julius remains the dilemma. Many Knick fans seem to hate the dude after his bouts of public sulking and acrimony.
 
Funny thing, even though he frustrated the fuck out of me, I like him. Strong, athletic, a real talent. And he has heart. As I've said a million times, he's just been used wrong or, at the least, HANDLED wrong. So I figured that he or Thibs would have to go. 

Easier said than done. So with both of them staying (at least as of today), it will be interesting to see how his role is changed.

Such silliness

Read Thibodeaux for signs on how any of that affected the team.

It's about Juilius's on court production and how he gets along with everyone in the team room.  Sulking?  Heck - shows how much he cares.  I bet you Harden detractors would love to see James show some of that caring in his body language.  You hate the "who cares? look.  But when someone cares -outwardly - you hate this too.

Ainge gets to find out how much capital and interest there is in every corner of the league then he will return in acknowledgment of his weakness, or someone will manage to meet the mountain of overpaying for Donavan Mitchell. That is something we can, but hopefully will not do.

The best thing we can do for Julius this season is to resolve our backcourt chaos this season by end of camp latest and build chemistry with stability from preseason on.

It looks like Jules decided that mobility, stamina, and pop are the things that will make him happy this season so he put in the work to become less of a man. We have likely improved his relevant help. Hartenstein probably gives us a bit more than Taj and Brunson should be a step up from one of my favorite recent Knicks, Alec Burks. The kids know the program. I saw Thibs in Vegas laughing like the Joker.

If a good opportunity comes around, that is great. We do not need to do anything but get to work to see a serious improvement in team play and results.
