Knick Most Likely To Be Moved at Deadline?
« Reply #4305 on: February 06, 2019, 02:59:45 PM »

Vonleh has the most value.
Mudiay could intrigue some teams.

Mario i think has no value.

Wes Matthews has no value.  Or value if we package a pick with him.

DeAndre same deal.

Frank apparently we don't want to trade.  Frank Knox and Dennis are our untouchable core.

I think its Lance Thomas.  Friendly contract.  Team making a playoff push could use him.


Lance and Vonleh could help Houston.   If only they had something we wanted.

We'd obviously have to add a couple draft picks to the pot.  DeAndre has to stay if we're going to be competitive for the next few seasons.  Pairing him with AD would easily make us a playoff team, and adding Durant or Kawaii to the mix makes us contenders.  Landing Davis is the only way I see the KP trade as being worth it.

DeAndre
Davis
Kawaii
Matthews?
Dennis

We'd also have a deep bench under this scenario.  Don't wake me up from my wet dream, guys

Maybe Matthews has value for the Pacers after they lost Oladipo?

If you are getting a second rounder only I would just as soon keep him

Haven't looked at the box scores but I think Kam has it about right. Vonleh is pressing, and it's not working out well. But he hasn't been super selfish or anything, just less judicious than in the past. I don't mind him seeing if he can expand his game a little bit. He may improve. But right now, it's not working.

As for his contract - Vonleh didn't even have a guarantee to begin the year. He only got locked in after the season started. I think the Knicks might have had enough leverage to have given him a 1+1 back in August.

(Elephant - Vonleh's UFA status is the only reason he's so low on the power rankings)

right, right, thanks i forgot.

Funny. This is the first time I realized that Rapaport is the same guy who plays a slur-spouting cop in Spike's Do the Right Thing

Wiz score 129 and get blown out by Bucks.
I saw the 2nd half.
Check the box score and O. Porter Jr is listed as DNP-Trade.

Portis and Jabari for Porter.
I like it.  No way WIZ pick up Jabari's option.  So he's an ending and done there.  Portis for Porter get WAS out of Big money and they can decide on re-signing Portis.  CHI has a low payroll and can add Porter's big contract.  Get a nice player.  Maybe he'll up his aggressiveness.

Yesterday, Chian TV was running a pormo for the Wiz-Bucks game.  They start off showing Wall on a fastbreak, spinning and banking in a layup.  Then Uber up high smashing down a vicious dunk.  And I'm wondering if they realize both guys don't play there this season.

Other news:
Mavericks trading Harrison Barnes to Kings for Justin Jackson, Zach Randolph.  DAL gets younger and drops Barnes overpriced deal.  Just Jax has looked mediocre to me.  But he's young and bouncy.
SAC converts cap space, an ending deal, and unproven yute into a solid vet.  Trying to make a move.  Another nice deal where both teams meet their objectives.  Though I like it more for Kings.

Getting a nice player is always better looking than getting cap space.

Some other rumors

Grizz and Raps -

Conley and Gasol for Jonas V and Lowry.  Lowry has already commented.

Reggie Bullock for Svi Michialuk - I think this one is done.  Pistons get a good athlete.....

Miami now has dealt Tyler Johnson to the Suns, who get their PG......
Heat get our old pal Ryan Anderson

Couple others......

So can we combine Wes and DeAndre together?

And can we combine them with another player?


Looks like the CAVS did just that.

Ending contracts brought in solid overpaid players for teams willing to take on more salary.
Jabari turned into Otto Porter.
ZBo's corpse flipped for Barnes.

Lotta movement this deadline.

Mavs traded away all of its starters not named Doncic.
Wizbangs ditched Porter and Morris to skirt under the tax.
Basically traded away everyone but Beal and the crippled, untradeable Wall.

Probably more trades as I was typing.

Shump has played pretty well this year, and Rocks need the extra defense.  HOU also traded MCW to CHI.  Gave them cash for some very future 2nd.  CHI expected to waive MCW.  Basically paid CHI to get a roster spot.  Not sure why not just cut him.  Weird non-career he's had.
