2025-26 Team Developments: Trades / Free Agents / News / Rumors / Ideas

Agree Knicks are being underrated. The point differential was huge once Brown changed the offense.

They got the exact type of team to make life tough for SAS. A burly center who can stretch the floor, physical guys, and a bunch of wing defenders with size to throw at the SAS guards. And with Hart Robinson etc they can rebound which hurt SAS vs OKC

 

The Knicks are playing the best ball in the league. They aren't a fluke, and I don't see why they are considered, to be the underdogs. They should be the favorites in the East next season too.

 

Holmgren is trash- I would be asking for like four of OKC’s youth over his weak minded self.

I’m still here. They are deep, they just got beat by a better team. The Spurs top four are better than OKC’s.
JDub was unavailable, but I still think they lose if he plays.

 

You have respect for the biggest flopper in the game?
Wow.

 

It is where I’m from.

 

Wait, Chet is “a good second option.”
According to what we just saw, he isn’t.
Good Regular Season Performer.
He gets this year’s “Harden Award” for biggest choker in the playoffs.
Well done.
How well have his Shaq comments aged?

 

Lakers don't need no freaking Dort especially for 18 millions which is his ext Oklahoma option

 

If i've said it once, i've said it a thousend times, f*** Lu Dort.

 

That's a workable roster plan. I have a different idea though, I'm keeping the bulk of your idea, with two wrinkles.

I'm looking to trade Austin and Dalton, to Memphis, for Ja and GG Jackson first. Then Flip Morant and Vando to Washington for AD. I believe that's a bit under 4M short but we could absorb that into our capspace. Or add Jake.

I'd then follow the rest of your plan, with the caveat, of adding Ellis and an athletic Rookie prospect, in the upcoming draft. So the youth infusion would be...Jones, Jackson, Thiero, Bronny, Ellis, and the draft pick. I'd let Luke walk.

That's an influx of youth, athleticism and energy. This should be extremely valuable during the regular season.

 

I'd take Dort for Vando and Jake, he's a Marcus Smart in his physical prime. My desire to trade for him specifically, also comes with the desire , of getting that 17th pick for a future FRP, as part of the deal. That way we'd have two FRP in the upcoming draft 17 and 25. We could flip those two picks, into a top 10 draft pick, that could become our next star.

 

One thing I will say about the Thunder is this.

J Williams is a damn good player; he was All NBA and All NBA Defense last season. That guy is not a scrub, he was missed in that series. As I said in our series, those guys are definitely beatable without him.

 

Disgusting. I turned the game on, saw that play and turned it off. Thanks Sliver for creating an unwatchable product.
