The Thunder really just drafted 2 dudes with the exact same name. There's going to be 3 Williams' on the roster. Jalen, Jaylin, and Kenrich

Don’t max Zion. Don’t want to hear about how it was a bad move for the next 2-3 years. Will be annoying.

brown for KD


but we all know only miami and OKC have the assets.

KD to miami, come have your chance papa

lowry, herro and a pick plus they can have duncan robinson too

who says no ?

 

[dman14]

kinda insane that Brooklyn may be shutting down "7-11" after a couple seasons. never thought it would unravel this quickly
in the end, i think ownership and management will probably bend. no way they go into the season with ben and a disgruntled kd

In.

Just say no to Kyrie, Clippers. Thanks.

Yes, the Knicks received three future first-round picks on Thursday. But those picks have protections. The 2025 first-round pick is top-four protected from the Milwaukee Bucks. It’s fair to assume that the pick will land in the bottom-third of the first round.

The 2023 Washington pick is protected top 14 and the 2023 Detroit pick is protected top 18.

Basically, the Knicks need the Wizards to make the playoffs and the Pistons to make the play-in tournament to earn those picks in 2023.

Overall, New York now has 11 future first-round picks and 11 future second-round picks over the next seven years.

Seems like a pretty safe bet some of these picks will be used to shed salary, or make a play for a legitimate trade

Doubt Boston will be in on KD if it cost one of them. Even with all 3 that’s a lot of mouths to feed.

Gotta waive Gibson, then dump Burks and/or Noel to get closer to Brunson's max.
