    feel like the knicks could get expiring money and a bunch of picks back for bridges/anunoby to separate teams, then throw all that at the bucks.

    i'd bid on either (prefer bridges for us), though we don't have enough picks right now.

    Based on nothing but my own intuition lol, I don't think the Knicks are going to trade both Bridges and Anunoby for Giannis. I think they're going to try and trade KAT for him, which won't work, and then fight tooth and nail to trade one of the two + Mitch for him. But yeah, unfortunately we don't have the ammo to get either.

    yeah, i just can't see the bucks taking KAT or what a third team would give for KAT.

    I said it the other day, but I really think the Knicks should pass on Giannis and just try to do KAT for AD. You keep your wing depth and sacrifice floor spacing, but you replace a 5 that gets destroyed defending P&Rs with Brunson with one of the best P&R defenders in recent memory. You have Robinson to help hold down the fort while AD is out. It's risky, but if AD is healthy for the playoffs they'd be my favorite to come out of the East. And for the Mavs, they can stay big like they apparently want to do but at least KAT can space the floor if he's playing the 4.
