Woj: Suns offering #4 for Butler, George, and Porzingis

[liam]

Sources told ESPN on Tuesday that the Knicks had talks with each team positioned in the top five in the lottery on Porzingis and with some teams outside of the lottery.


This tells me the knocks really want a top 5 pick and probably want to move porzingis fast

I just don't see anyone in the top five being able to offer the knicks what boston can

What if the Kings offer the #5 and #10?

Knicks want Josh Jackson and another starter...Boston has all of that..plus more picks..

Jackson (#3) and Crowder for Porzingis is the definition of a no brainer!

Ainge will screw this up, if he already hasn't---He should have held onto the #1...Porzingas would be ours already.

Watch The Lakers and Phil get together and move Porzingas to L.A. --so p---ed if this happens.

We're gonna be stuck on the outside looking at the Lakers next Dynasty, starting tomorrow---while we have Jason **** Tatum.

Yes...even throw in a sweetner like a future #1 in 2019

We're gonna be forced to take on Melo.

Sure, and some 2nd rounders. If you don't give up and players of consequence and you add Hayward and Porzingis that's a contender.

Porzingis and Melo basically play the same position so that's no good. If Melo would come off the bench and we could still get Hayward I'd do it.

I think the title of the thread is misleading. The article never mentioned the Suns offered the #4 pick for those players. It said the pick was discussed.

New York calls: What about Porzingis for #4 and Booker. Suns..."no."
Indiana calls: What about Paul George for #4. Suns..."no."
Chicago calls: What about Butler for #4. Suns..."no."

As article states, the Suns discussed the #4 pick, and said no in each case. Really surprised that Woj wrote that article.

Probably also good news that we haven't heard anything about LA wanting Porzingis. I think they'd have to gut their team to get him, but having the number 2 could hurt us.

This makes no sense to me. If a player is tied to a Porzingis deal, the Knicks would want it to be Joakim Noah. Camelo is still a star player in NY and will most likely opt out next year anyway.

I think Danny knows Hayward is coming so that's affecting every move he makes but giving up a handful of picks and Crowder would fit with Hayward coming, some of these other moves wouldn't.

Team execs interviewed by AmicoHoops seem to think #Cavs, #Lakers, #Celtics (in no order) have put together strongest offers for George.

[CelticsElite]

Surprised a little to see celtics trying to get George

I guess if we get him, we can offer more money in a deal than lakers.

Worry much? Take a deep breath, relax. Tomorrow will come and then we see what happens.

Really gang, this is all fun to follow as a fan.

If we let the Suns out bid us on Porzingis it would be absurd.

They want #4 and Booker.

Suns are NOT trading away Booker too haha.

I'm honestly not sure if the Suns would trade Booker for Porzingis straight up. I'm not saying that'd be the right decision, but they seem to love the kid there.  Booker + #4 is straight up absurd.
