MitchRob remaining time with the Knicks depending how he performs when he comes back. And can he stays healthy ?
We need a true defensive center a good rebounder with size.
Who is trading anyone for Mitchell Robinson and the protected Washington pick? Everyone knows Robinson is injury prone and has two years, and the Washington pick is protected. We don't have anything to trade. My hope is Precious is good this year, and maybe we can sign someone off of waivers when Mitchell Robinson eventually gets injured again.
I like Robert Williams the most! If I could trade him for Precious I would! Stat wise per 36 minutes Williams is better than Mitch but I still like Mitch's size. So I might not include Mitch for Williams! Never know what Big we will face in the playoffs or Finals!
Williams shooting splits this season .711%/.500%/.923%!!! Also Williams is only 6'9. But as a backup center Williams would be great! 3.6 Blocks per 36minutes vs Robinson's 2.6. Hell I might put hWilliams at Power Forward!
I think we should just wait and see if this even happens. You do know the Kessler trade talk is old right? They've been bringing it up for a while. Why does everybody keep doing videos about knicks trade rumors, and trade speculation still? It's kind of crazy to me
Not happening
Burger King Rose is a pimp for CAA – there is little to nothing possible for the Knicks , bellied up to the 2nd apron & picking metaphorical noses
The Jazz aren't giving up Walker Kessler 😕
I'm curious to see what both Mitch and Precious look like on this squad. They def bring the missing D. Mitch is a bit of a liability on offense but maybe it's case by case depending on opponent
I’d rather “lose” with our ppl than trade anyone right now. It’s all about chemistry. Losing precious makes no sense. Walker and yonis aren’t what we need nor are they wise we looking for. Keep them folks where they are! please
What makes you think Danny ainge wants those two bumbs Sims and Ryan. ?????
We should definitely go after Walker Kessler but you know as well as I do that. The Jaz are gonna want an arm and a leg for him. It’s not worth giving up that much just to get him.
They traded for Mikhail Bridges, but he hasn’t quite panned out the way they expected either his season has been up and down. I know people need time to gel, but at some point when is enough gonna be enough if it doesn’t work out, we gave up the farm to get this guy
They should definitely get rid of Jericho Sims and get Walker Kessler. If that’s available that’s a no-brainer.
No thanks
There's no point in even trying to go after Kessler. He would be great for the team, but everyone already knows as one of the executives, Danny Ainge's price for Jazz players are extremely high. Only way this trade should be accepted on the Knicks side is if the Jazz compromise a bit on the deal. It's wishful thinking hoping Mitch stays healthy and plays a good amount of games, but I'd rather see how him and Precious improve this team rather than make too many moves and change up this team.
First off let’s not tinker with chemistry as we seen with Mikal and KAT trade along with the loss of Randle and Divo. Does Kessler play more games than Robinson, is he a better rebounder than Robinson, better defensive player, better shooter and better all around player than Robinson to make this trade. If he is not, then no need to disrupt chemistry and put more heart aches and time consuming fits. If trade is made need to make it at this Feb trade deadline to have them play together instead of spending more wasted time to wait for development next season. Knicks needs a 5 with size as they have lost to Cle, Jazz and other teams with length/bigger front court. Cannot trade anyone shorter than Robinson or 7’0 otherwise Knicks get bullied by size and lose as everyone has witness. Not trading for Robert Williams at 6’9 when Achiuwa can fit that role. Not getting Claxton or doing deal with Nets as they will demand another 5 first round picks to cripple the Knicks for decades with draft. Pacome Dadiet, Robinson and Washington 1st round pick for Kessler. Shove it to Ainge take it or leave it he won’t get better when he has 2 first round pick in Dadiet and Washington 1st rounder plus DPOY in Robinson. Robinson gotta go as he is injured every season eating chicken wings on the couch and not caring about returning to help Knicks while remaining unhealthy. Knicks universe what purpose does an injured Robinson serve for Knicks MIA?
If Knicks get the chance in Kessler , I would say that would be the move and trade Simms
We don’t have the assets to make a trade after giving all our assets for Bridges.
Fake news
I wouldn't trade precious! He's on a reasonable contract, and he knows the system! Imo
The Knicks do not need our version of Gobert to clog our paint. They should get Myles Turner without loosing anyone in the starting lineup. Myles Turner can rebound, block shots and spread the offense. He will not be clogging the paint on offense
Precious has proven himself on both sides of the floor, keep him. Unless the Knicks are hiding the fact that Mitch's injury is worse than they are letting on, who are you going to get that's better. Stand pat!
Due to the salary cap/apron issue, I don't see the Knicks having the ability of making any trades.
Knicks do not have enough non-core assets to get Kessler from Ainge imo.
Danny Ainge will want way more than a 💩 FRP for a really good center. You’re an a$$ 🤡
All Smoke .. Danny isnt trading with Knicks
Please don’t give up defense to add more offense! Top ranked offense in the league. More offense isn’t going to win a championship, but adding defense might
Leon Rose, you already know what to do and that is to get Walker Kessler. I would give up some future second round pics and topping and a future first round
Just imagine Mitchell Robinson and Walker Kessler at the five blocking shots like crazy because our defense will go from 25 to number 1 👌👍😀
Honestly, I wanna keep Mitch but I know that, eventually, he'll have to be moved. I know he's always hurt, but when he's playing, he's one of the best role players at his position.
He'll No ?! Keep the Rookie 💯!!!
Is Kessler gonna want to come here and come off the bench when he’s starting and having a phenomenal season. Coming off a bad season the price was sky high for Kessler. Imagine what Ainge is gonna want for him now after off to such a hot start?
This guy is awful, wants to unload half the bench and 5 picks while we're at it smh
I’ll take Precious over both them
