[Kris Pursiainen] The New York Knicks are receiving and taking calls on center Mitchell Robinson, their longest tenured player. Sources familiar with the situation say the likelihood of a deal is unknown but the team seems to be willing to make another move after the blockbuster add of Karl Towns.

Deal for a center. Any other position and I’m questioning Leon’s abilities.
all love to mitch its incredibly funny how bro was on ig earlier and now this is happening 😭

Wouldn’t be surprised if this moves fast enough where this becomes a 4 team deal in some type of way. Don’t know who the FO would have their eye on in this scenario. I think Detroit might be a landing spot
For what? Unless it’s just for contract matching, I don’t see anything of value coming back considering his health, and our needs are still a center, bench depth, and secondary playmaker and I doubt we’re getting those with him
Was looking yesterday to see what could even be available salary-wise for Mitch straight up, these are the ones that stuck out (again, purely salary matching, some of these teams wouldn’t be interested in Mitch and most would probably require extra assets going one way or the other)
Matisse Thybulle
Robert Williams
Brandon Clarke
John Konchar + Zach Edey
Jordan Clarkson
Jock Landale + Tari Eason
Kevon Looney + Moses Moody
Daniel Gafford
Maxi Kleber + Dante Exum
Grant Williams
Josh Green
Cody Martin + Nick Richards or Mark Williams
Kelly Olynyk
Dennis Schroder
Oneka Okongwu
Larry Nance Jr
Bobby Portis
Think we had enough blockbusters for one year
This guy is super accurate with Knicks news btw, he was the first to report Bojans wrist was fucked
Is this why he’s all on IG right now talking about past Knicks games?
He’s more unavailable than he is available at this point, he can’t create anything on offense (outside of catching lobs which he doesn’t even do anymore with how hurt he is all the time), and he’s somehow become worse from the free throw line year after year.
Probably best to move on sooner rather than later if Leon and the org think we need to
Idk. I think they fit well but both injury prone so at this point I’m just all in on whatever happens. Let’s go Knicks.
It’s getting real crazy in these Knicks streets
Anybody else think that Mitch makes too little for the return to be someone of any worth? If anything we would have to take in a guy on a rookie deal that needs to get paid soon
Yikes
Who wouldve thought Deuce would be the last man standing from all of our young pieces. Actually crazy how fast this whole team turned over.
It makes sense because Kat and him may never be injury free at the same time. We need iron men
We started with bridges who never missed a game we need more players like him
Either get Charlotte back on the phone for Nick Richards or see if we can hit up our ol trade bitch Detroit for Isaiah Stewart
Honestly anything that makes the team better I’m about. I love Mitch but the guy’s never healthy.
Good. Like him a lot, but how many seasons can he disappoint us before we move on? He can’t stay on the court longer than I hold in a turd.
Also for all of us praising his D, IHart had better defensive numbers last year than Mitch.
Get me off this roller coaster
Leon Rose has the opportunity to do the funniest thing ever and trade back for DiVo.
I miss Donte…
Okay huge brained idea: trade him to OKC for i-hart.
Get me Dante back!!!!!!!
So there is absolutely no chance this happens because nothing Leon does is ever rumored beforehand.
Why are yall begging for beef stew we have beef stew at home (precious)
I’m kind of ambivalent to it, but idk if meech’s value has ever been lower? Not recently?
Bro isn’t supposed to play till January and is an expiring? I can’t really even imagine the best player he could get as a straight-up swap
LMAO this would make McBride and Sims the 2 longest tenured players starting their 4th seasons for NY and Brunson would be the 3rd longest starting his 3rd season.
Incoming Instagram stories
man is going crazy on insta posting highlights and stuff of himself, he’s clearly shocked by the KAT trade and doesn’t think the front office has faith in him
I’m not surprised. But if a trade happens I’m hoping for some more wing depth. The KAT trade destroyed that
This move was sadly kind of inevitable, because of his injuries. My main concern is who else might we have to package with him to get anything of value in return, which preferably would be a big and bench scoring. I just don’t see much out there.

I love Mitch but his health is always going to let him down, if you can swing a backup center with the same skill set that stays healthy I could see it…. But not sure why you would trade him besides that. Having a lockdown d and rebounder in the paint is needed more with KAT over Randall
Crazy idea Mitchell Robinson for Julius Randle
Past 2 days been so crazy
If we can get Walker Kessler in a multi team trade, then I would do it. KAT moves to the 4.
Leon pls use your dark magic to make the spurs trade us wemby for mitch
Trade for Ihart or no deal
Mitch’s story on IG rn makes it seem like he knows he’s getting dealt…posting a lot of Knicks memes from over the years
Mitch can’t stay on the court. Let’s hope he goes and Knicks get someone that isn’t made of glass.
Me the past 2 days
Do I keep checking my phone or just go on about my life
Trade him back for Randle or DDV 😭
Damn. All my favorite Knicks are gone or about to be but that man got a job to complete this season 🏆
