The Hawks should route Ingram to Brooklyn for Cam Johnson.  

LOL NO

[ShayD]

The league is Wide AF open especially in this weak east and the knicks realize that. Also this may mean OG is available for a SNT

Hell yes.  I’d send him to Brooklyn as part of the New Orleans deal and take Cam Johnson and Bojan Bogdanovich back.  

[ShooterSays]

If they can get THAT for Mikal, makes you wonder what we could get for….never mind. Forget I said anything. 

[JTB]

Man if the Knicks get back OG…this will be another team with 4 perimeter good defenders.

 

i hope the hawks can make some real noise with their moves cause the rest won’t be wide open for too long.

Lol.

Rockets have Nets pick.

Nets have Suns pick.

Nets are sending the Rockets the Suns pick in exchange for their pick back.

I feel like I’m back in third grade:

If Johnny had 18 apples, ate two, saved 5, and gave 1 to Suzzy…

[JTB]

I see no reason we can’t get herb jones in a deal with Ingram.
 

I’ll stand on that until proven wrong.

Yep. The price is higher now. And the Pelicans don't want Ingram

[ShooterSays]

Risacher will be the pick. Going to need big wing defenders to get past NYK and Boston in the playoffs.

Because New Orleans has to agree to the deal.

That’s fine.

Risacher, Ingram, Herb, & Jalen would be a great start.

Am I the only one that doesn’t want Clingan at all? Stamina issues. Prior foot/ankle issues at his size. 
 

he missed 7 games this year and barely played 1/2 the time in those he did play (22.5 mpg). Last year he played every game … a whopping 13 mpg.

Sometimes the body doesn’t cooperate with the talent. I’ve seen this story before. I’m taking Edey 10/10 times over Clingan. And I’m not taking Edey likely until the end of the lottery.

You are not alone. But he’s.. better than nothing I guess

They will because they don’t want to lose Ingram for nothing and they NEED to get their star a playmaker.

DJ is the best available point guard on the market. (Outside of Trae who shouldn’t be traded)

you have to be willing to negotiate. Can’t have everything your way. I think OO included in the deal is a fair offer.

Sarr can also defend in space so it wouldn't be bad if he stayed. Have to force Washington to trade for him and then they can pick Risacher at 2

NOOOOO FML

 

WHY DO OTHER TEAMS GET THE GOOD PLAYERS

Because they mortgaged their future to make it happen. 

[Final_quest]

Hartenstein might be a goner:

[JustSomeGuy]

Unless Risacher is a better athlete than he tested that pick won’t move the needle for me at all.

OG was concerned about his role in the offense in Toronto, he just moved even further down in the pecking order in NYK and hasn't been offered what he wants.
