To be fair, that was early in the summer when the Jazz had more leverage. That same Tony Jones reporter claimed towards the end of the summer that Utah requested RJ, IQ, 2 firsts and pick swaps/filler before dealing with Cleveland once we said no. That would’ve been a far more realistic trade package

How many times is Obi gonna drop 30 when Randle sits before people realize that he is a really fucking good scorer?
IQ, Grimes, and Obi would look like future superstars on a non-contender, our team is just deeper than Mark Cuban’s pussy
cesarjulius
just obi, quickley, and grimes without the picks or deuce is a hard maybe. it made sense for the cavs. not for us at that price.

At this point there is not a single player in the NBA I’d want to trade if it meant giving both Grimes and quick

I wish nothing but the worst for the jazz

That would have been such a steal for the Jazz holy crap.
admiral_aubrey
Of course that’s what the Jazz “wanted”, just like the Knicks “wanted” Mitchell for Trevor Keels straight up. Doesn’t really mean anything.

I’m happy we didn’t

Utah can suck a dick

Grimes alone will be as good as DM

I mean… this can’t be real.

That’s a package for maybe Giannis, Jokic or Embiid, ain’t too many players I’d trade that much for.

Yea hell no

I hope Leon listened to that, said to Ainge ‘And here’s my counteroffer,’ then just hung up the phone.

6 1st rounders?? Has that ever happened in the history of the nba?

Baring any self sabotage, no one in their right mind would have gone ahead with this deal.

IQ in that pic is my exact reaction to this trade offer.

Great player. But he’s a smaller guard who is going to break down.

So true. I’m not sure I’d want to give up all that for even KD. So glad the Knicks’ FO had the backbone to walk away.
TakeMe22TheRiver
No way this trade works for Knick fans. We have waited far too long to have a real future and these kids are that hope. No doubt that DM is a generational talent, but it provides no ROI heading down the road.

Ainge played himself. Dude is a complete tool
That’s ridiculous for 1 player

The bench would have been a disaster.
Fuck Danny.
