If the Suns trade for Zinger that means Booker is involved. Keep that in mind.

David Aldridge: Factor in potential Porzingis trades: Knicks think KP would have been 1st overall in draft this year & next & want picks reflecting that. – via Twitter daldridgetnt

What are they smokin??

Posturing, nothing more. That kind of nonsense statement is designed to whip up fan demand for a player but doesn't have any impact on GMs whatsoever. KP wouldn't go in the top 4 of this draft.

Maybe straight out of Europe. After proving himself in the NBA, I think he's easily worth the #1 pick.

Only because you're dealing with a known quantity.

Let's play this out. Please predict KPs statistics 3 years from now, taking into account his lack of progression that he showed last year.

Predicting statistics is a fool's errand.

I can see the #3 and crowder. Maybe add rozier. But nothing more

They are not getting brown

Who knows the package could be a joke ,(2018, 2019 celts pick, crowder, rozier) or just a smokescreen to drive up the price

Seriously. I would start surrendering body parts if it got us KP. Big man problems instantly solved.

At this point, when you consider the # of reports about how bad teams want Jackson, we have to take him, or else trade the pick.

The same logic was used last year regarding Dunn. It didn't work then either.

That's a different context, though. Dunn was a guard, which we had plenty of. He also was much older than the others.

Jackson and Tatum are very similar prospects in a lot of ways regarding their ceilings, fit, etc.

I also agree with this logic that if Danny rates these two prospects similarly, which is true by most accounts so far, we should take Jackson and see what happens. GMs get desperate to make a move when it comes down to the 11th hour, so if we get him, I'm betting a pretty robust market arises where we can extract value from him. Hell, if nothing else just use him to trade down to Phoenix or Sacramento, both of who want him badly for themselves or a trade, which would probably nab you an asset along with Tatum.

#3, Lakers/Kings pick, Crowder, future first is as far as I would go.

I was down for trading the number 1 pick and something like Crowder for Porzingis, so I'm still okay with trading something like 3, Crowder, Rozier, and the LA pick, which might end up crappy anyways if Indy folds to LA's poo poo platter, for Porzingis.

If I were Celtics I'd try to consolidate Avery Bradley & Jae Crowder as the "two starters" Phil Jackson said he wants then build from there.

At this point, hopefully Danny is telling Phil that we're taking Jackson regardless, meaning that he's going to have to work with us if he wants him.

And as much as he damaged their relationship yesterday in that God-awful interview, I think he ultimately has to fold and make a deal for Porzingis tonight, regardless of who he ends up dealing with. Things will only get that much more toxic this coming season if not.

KP's frame making him more susceptible to injury than the average big man doesn't worry you at all?

I go on recording as saying KP would help this team more than George or Butler, but the whole injury thing scares me, ecspecially if we are going to give up the 3rd pick.
Alright, now my hopes are starting to get up.  Don't do this to me again, Danny!
