The New York Knicks have had internal discussions about a potential deal for Marcus Smart per sources familiar with the situation. NYK has had rumored interest in Smart before. No deal is imminent but several sources indicated the Knicks are willing to be active on the market.

Before looking at Smart the player financially he makes **20M** so to salary match this it would take Mitch + Precious or Mitch + Deuce/ vet minimum. I like Smart but realistically this doesn’t make sense doing another trade where it’s a 2 for 1 type of situation.
I’d rather keep Mcbride at his current salary. If it’s just Mitch as the main piece, I’m all for it.
Who’s the third team sending us an elite center in return?
I love Smart. He would be spicy. Decent Shooter, nice passer, big winner, in his prime. Would be salty if it was Deuce, Mitch can go for Smart. Would get over it. 😉
Costs too much and is too streaky.
Beating the Celtics with Marcus smart would be spiritual. I love the deal if it’s something like Mitch, Toppin and 2 srps but I dont think the grizzlies would take it.
Brunson, McBride, Smart, Hart, Mikal, OG, Kat, Hart, Precious. Is a ridiculously good 9 man rotation, sure the center depth is a bit thin but shit that lineup is stacked let’s be real
Salary way too much.
Someone mention Robinson, Jacob Toppin Sign and trade for 3.6 million and a rookie scale player can work
But why?
Having him against Boston would benefit the team
What am I missing here? Why are there so many fans on this sub? Decent player but can’t shoot for shit, plays a role we have younger, healthier guys for, and trading for him would make the depth worse.
Not for what we’d have to give up. Also has too free of a trigger and isn’t a good enough shooter to justify it. Injury prone at this point as well
