My son gave me a gift subscription to Wired for Father’s Day and I immediately read this:
KAT said that he would consider taking $100M less than whatever. Don’t know what that means but it sounds kind of cool…
Good morning, champions. Giannis to Boston now sounds like a legit possibility. Not sure if I prefer him in Boston or Miami… probably the latter.
I’m really annoyed that Boston might get Giannis for Jaylen fucking Brown, the most overrated player in the entire league.
This is just me, but if it came down to a choice of knowing I’m worth a little over 100 mil (so sayeth the internet) and getting 60 mil a year with the likelihood that the championship team as currently formed would have to be dismantled to some degree, or getting 50 mil a year knowing the team could be kept as is and I’d earn the forever gratitude of an entire fan base and city, I’d probably choose plan B. I don’t know how much actually being worth shit-all reflects that decision, of course…
I’d much rather have Giannis go to Miami, partly because I’d rather he play redundantly with Bam and few shooters (presuming Herro goes) vs. playing with at least one major star with multiple skills and a bunch of decent shooters. Plus fuck the Celtics.
Doesn’t matter. Tatum and Gianni’s will both get hurt and miss next years playoffs anyway
Boston will be giving up more than just Jaylen Brown. Giannis is fool’s gold. Dude has been injured a lot the last few years and will be 32 at the end of this year. For a dude who relies on his athleticism and does not have an outside shot, Boston is taking a huge gamble.
It’s also not going to address their depth issues at all.
Not scared.
KAT taking a Brunson type discount now could be exactly what Leon needs to convince Dolan to go into the SA this year and keep the band together.
Spurs assistant Sean Sweeney hired as head coach in Orlando.
Seems like a significant upgrade over Mosley. Sweeney is a defensive specialist who’s been largely credited for the Spurs success on that side of the ball. The Magic already had a good defense so this coaching hire looks like a good fit for them.
If Wagner avoids the injury bug that sidelined him frequently last season, Orlando will be a serious player in the East.
I feel like an undertold Celtics story is how Tatum has shot above 35% from deep in only 1 out of the last 5 seasons. And that season, he shot 37%.
Combine that with Giannis and potentially a non-shooting center (who is a good stretch 5 that is available?), and I’m not sure how that works.
Mavs hiring Dusty May from Michigan as their new head coach.
Besides Brad Stevens, how many college-to-NBA coaching success stories have we had lately?
It’s nice that we can watch other teams do stupid stuff in real time now instead of our own team!
I feel like an undertold Celtics story is how Tatum has shot above 35% from deep in only 1 out of the last 5 seasons. And that season, he shot 37%.
Combine that with Giannis and potentially a non-shooting center (who is a good stretch 5 that is available?), and I’m not sure how that works.
tatum is still a great spacer and is over 41% on c&s in that period. his percentages are low because he is overly in love with the pull-up, but this doesn’t really impede his fit with giannis.
All true but I like the Celtics exactly as they are. I think we have these guys perfectly measured. Their upside with Giannis is tremendous. I’d rather he go to the Heat.
Would obviously have wanted Giannis to land in the WC, but if I had to pick, rather have Riley make the trade than Stevens. Miami needs to swing for the fences while Boston does not. And that is true for 81 year old Riley as well as set-for-life 49 year old Stevens.
The Celtics parlaying a high-volume Jaylen Brown season into Giannis is so on brand and annoying. This is the kind of thing people playing in fantasy leagues in 2006 knew not to fall for.
We’ll obviously have to see what the final package is and it’s hard to picture a Celtics team clearly better than the Knicks emerging, but seeing as how I’m not positive Jaylen Brown is even worth his contract, yeah, flipping him for Giannis would be very good business.
If Jaylen Brown gets traded to the Bucks, he can have his second most fun season playing with Ryan Rollins, Myles Turner and Kyle Kuzma
Re: Giannis @ Boston.
Think at age 32 & without a jumpshot, Giannis now has to play majority of his minutes at the center position.
The POA offense of Giannis & Tatum is no joke when surrounded by shooters and efficiency of Houser, White and Pritchard. When Giannis sits, they can go 5 out with Luka Garza.
If this happens, Knicks will need a VETERAN back up for OG. Someone like a Maxi Kleber. Also, Mikal’s value diminishes quite a bit as wing stop is now too small.
Hot take. Boston will be worse with Giannis instead of Brown.
His legs will magically heal themselves with the sound of Adam Silver’s voice saying “with the tenth pick in the NBA draft the Milwaukee Bucks select…”
KAT is both too old and not good enough for a 4 year 70m aav max contract. He’s not taking a paycut but I’m OK if they want to market it that way. He’s worth between $40 and $50 million.
It would be very on-brand for the Bucks to try and build a win-now team around Jaylen Brown instead of tanking. I hope for their sake they go for the Tyler Herro package. Plus, it will be fun to watch JB pout in Boston after a failed trade attempt.
A review of Giannis’ injury history shows he’s been sidelined with calf issues on five different occasions since Feb, 2025.
I’m no orthopedist, but that seems like a bright red flag to me. Given what we’re coming to learn about the links between recurring calf issues and serious achilles injuries, I’d be very nervous about my team giving up a big trade package for a soon to be 32 year old player with that particular health profile.
“Hot take. Boston will be worse with Giannis instead of Brown.”
If factoring injury/availability agree with you slightly. If not, Boston is a lock for the 2 seed. Giannis is not injury-prone (eg Mitch), so keeping him healthy for Boston is easier than the “we absolutely need him” Bucks the last couple of regular seasons.
Brown wants to be even more free to let his chuck flag fly.
Any draftniks out there have some insight into Allen Graves? I’ve been seeing him mocked to the Knicks at 24 more & more often over the past several days.
Yes to all.
Also he’s already been traded once bc his contract was too onerous. I don’t think he wants that again.
On the other hand, I could easily see KAT maturing into a different type of player in his 30’s: a more defensive, well-rounded Pau Gasol type C. He’s already shown he CAN play like that.
We had been used to a more one-dimensional type of KAT, one who was not worth the big dough, but he might not be that guy anymore. Father Time is undefeated, but KAT is truly an exceptional combination of talent and size. I could see him aging well.
Hard to see KAT taking less than the 4/212 Trae Young just got.
He’d have to play out the year and be willing to run his contract down like Trae did, which would actually be a great outcome for us.
Yeah, 4/212 for KAT is something I’d sign up for immediately, given how much more he can make under the CBA.
From Begley:
Ultimately we’ve got nothing to do but play the waiting game, but I remain hopeful Dolan was talking out of his ass. Seems like a safe Occam’s Razor bet, as a general matter.
I can’t believe Trae got that much
That is a terrible move for Washington.
I might offer KAT that, but would insist on it being descending. If he wants a player option in the last year, sure. Maybe even a no trade clause for the first 2 years. That would lock him in until 2029-30.
Again, when Ian talks, you should listen. The way he wrote that screams, “This is what Leon or Aller is telling me on background, begging me to put the word out there to Knicks fans.”
Giannis to Miami all the way. It’d be pretty simple to turn the Boston team into a rabbit corkscrew just fucking right to the hoop. Even boy wonders boy wonder could manage it. That’d be horrible.
I don’t think it’s that relative to KAT. Trae’s 27 and this is his third contract. KAT’s 30 and is in the middle of his third contract. This extension would be his fourth.
And Trae only got that much bc he created leverage by playing out his current contract. KAT would have to decline an extension and play out the year on his current contract in order to create that leverage for himself. That’s a good outcome for us, too.
Popper at Newsday (*) reported that Dolan and Leon discussed the second apron the day before Dolan blabbed about it to Carton.
(*) Owned by MSG.
Unfortunately Dolan ruining everything is always a safe bet, too.
Gonna have to sweat this one out.
Alvarado has moved his player option decision date back from the 22nd to the 26th to accommodate the draft, so clearly he’s working with the team to stick around.
That Trae deal is a monstrosity
1. The Celtics plan is go way from shooting as many 3s and to play more inside out traditional basketball. I’m sure they’ll continue shooting high quality 3s, but Brad Stevens has seen enough of playing high variance basketball the last 2 years without a few elite star caliber 3 point shooters. It didn’t goink so well.
2. If the Celtics get Giannis imo he will fit perfectly into their plans to have a more consistent offense while maintaining a top defense.
3. I’m not a huge Jaylen Brown fan either. If Giannis can stay healthy, imo this will be a meaningful upgrade for Boston.
Maybe Trae Young should send Jalen Brunson a thank you note. Brunson demonstrated you can build around an undersized PG that doesn’t play defense and still contend. Peak Trae Young is a very good offensive player and PG. They have a lot of work to do to be any good, but Davis, Young and the 1st pick is a pretty good start given they have other young players with upside. People forget how good Davis is when healthy partly because he’s rarely healthy and partly because he sat out a lot last year on tanking teams.

@JakeLFischer
It sounds like depending XYZ, Alvarado would consider opting in with some kind of extension.
Sounds like the Knicks are pinching pennies, otherwise they wouldn’t care if Alvy’s number was the 4.5 option this year.
lol I know it’s just a tweet but it’s funny that it just says trade options, as if using it on players isn’t even an option.
I like the sound of “the reigning champion New York Knicks” !! 🎵🧡💙
Not that the Knicks are considering it, but has a team ever traded a key player after winning a championship?
Can’t think of any examples
The rockets traded Otis Thorpe for Clyde in 95.
But that was a mid season trade.
Very surprised to see that Jaylen Brown’s stats are still so mediocre despite him having probably the best year of his career.
He comes off as one of those classic Al Harrington-style “usage soakers” of days of yore. Idk why any team would sign up for him being their “guy.” I guess he has those intangibles, and he’s a dawg, etc.
I might honestly take Josh Hart straight up over him.
Never forget that Jaylen Brown has shot under 35% from 3 for the last 5 seasons
Not impressed by Begley’s “I have to think”. Last time he went un-sourced he was wrong about how Mitch broke his finger.
Dolan could easily have stayed behind the scenes with his instructions to Leon and the Knicks would have done whatever they would have done. This whole public bit about Dolan’s concern about the team penalties of the apron is a calculated distraction from the owner pocketbook consequences of the luxury tax.
Is my take.
I don’t know exactly how the luxury tax works but ESPN reports that trading Aaron Wiggins’ $9M salary will save the Thunder $61M in taxes.
Hence I’m inclined to agree with Timo. If this team gets broken up it won’t be for the nearly inconsequential roster penalties.
So the Wizards were obviously cognizant of the fact that Trae Young could be had for nothing, due to his near $50M salary. Then they literally quadrupled down on that after seeing him play for all of 5 games. Huh.
Getting Giannis just for Jaylen Brown or for Herro, scrub set and shitty pick shows desperation.
I don’t see it happening that easy..
Unless the freak is washed up
You had me at HELLO
Not sure why everyone is down on the wizards…
Trae
AD
Peterson/Dybatsa
Sarr
George
If heathy, they could be last years Raptors.
I am definitely not a draftnik, but when I read this from John Hollinger in the Athletic in May, I wanted him for the Knicks. He is a player with great stats from a lousy league who also has an unusual profile. His personality seems like a good fit too.

Diawara re-signing with the Knicks: 4-year, 10 mil contract per Shams.
YES! YES ! YES!
One major priority in the bag!
Locking up Mo first is great to see. Very encouraging.
Nice!
And that’s below the price that would have hard capped them at the second apron.
That’s an excellent contract given the flashes he has show. I really love that it’s a 4 year deal.
It’s nice to be a competent organization!
Non-bird rights contract?
That looks like the max we could give him without using the TPMLE, which is a strong data point in favor of “James Dolan is a stupid bullshitter” theory.
In other words, great news all around!
Last year’s Raptors actually played defense, good luck to Washington stopping anyone next year even if AD stays.
But I thought Mo was gonna get crazy offers from other teams…
I think there’s quite a bit of playing time for the younger players next year, because they’ll need to scale back the starting 5 after the long playoff run. Mo (and Huk and Tyler) should benefit from it.
A point Jeremy Cohen made to me recently is between the cup bonus and playoff bonuses, Diawara more than doubled his 2025-2026 salary. So that stuff is a pretty big consideration for guys with relatively low salaries. If he took ~$500k AAV more from the Kings or Nets or whoever, he would be miserable and also may well have less money anyway.
The Wizards are not worried about next year. They are thinking about 2028-2029. That’s when their #1 pick will start blossoming (assuming they don’t blow it) and Young will still be good. I like the Davis/Young combo, but I could also see them trading Davis now or eventually because he’s 33.
That is a great contract for Diawara. It’s less than what players who might be drafted get in NIL to play college ball. It is for a longer term though, so that gives Diawara security.
And the Knicks can still keep Mitch or Shamet after signing Mo? Someone help…
Wow…Leon is a legend.
That was the most difficult re-signing and he pulled it off first for dirt cheap. 4yrs – $10m? – you kidding me???
Yes
By using non bird rights to sign him instead of the TPMLE, the Knicks are allowed to go over the second apron.
It doesn’t mean they will. But they’re allowed to.
I’m not a huge fan of the Greek Freak at this point in his career. Yes, he’s still in his prime but he’s broken down. His game is athleticism and that doesn’t last forever. I’m all for keeping this team together. If I could make a straight-up money don’t matter trade, I want Dante over Deuce. I believe in almost the entire team. I’m convinced that our 3rd string team could compete in the NBA (Kolek, Dadiet, Socham, Diawara, Hukporti).
Come to think of it, I’m not sure it means anything other than we got Diawara back at a good price. Because if the plan is to stay under the second apron, you have to save the TPMLE to replace Mitch. This doesn’t really signal their intent either way.
Is there a way Leon can trade Deuce plus cash to Minessota for any expiring non guaranteed contract + for them to buy out Donte, – so that we can pick him up on a vet min?
TPMLE for next season is a shade north of $6M. Mo signed for less than half that. He’s not worth the full exception, promising as he is.
Calling resident capologists and/or Brock Aller’s lurker account:
What does this signify for our ability to retain Mitch/Deuce/Shamet?
You guys clamoring for DDV to return, you do realize he tore his achilles during the playoffs.
I think it was the simplest: we offered the max non bird rights. It was the hardest to predict bc it was unclear if he’d take it or test the market. But our end was easy.
If Shamet takes that, does it mean we can re siogn Mitch and still stay under the 2nd Apron?
Depends on whether they want to go over the second apron or not. If that’s not an issue, they can pay those guys whatever they want. (Technically, they only have Early Bird rights on Shamet, so they can pay him about $10M in the first year. But there are no limitations on being able to retain any of those guys — other than willingness.)
We wouldn’t use the TPMLE on Landry, we’d use his early bird rights.
There’s pretty much no way we can sign Mitch and stay under the second apron.
Only if Mitch takes like a quarter of his actual market value. They’re going to have around $12M left under the SA, depending on exactly what Alvy’s salary next year winds up being, and have to fit Mitch, Shamet, and the first round draft pick (slot around 5-ish) under that. They can’t afford all three.
If we do all that (re-sign everyone), where do we put our three draft picks?
Nothing
Rookie scale for the 24th pick is actually around 3.5, though a rookie can sign at between 80 and 120 percent of that. If they draft someone there, they’ll have less than 10M for Mitch and Shamet.
Mo’s minutes pretty much nosedived to zero once the playoffs started. Which kinda surprised me; thought going in that there would be room for him to get some limited burn in certain situations. Wonder if his disappearance was a calculated move to keep him off other teams’ radars.
Anyway, I’m thrilled that he wound up being the first domino to fall. I believe his upside is through the roof and was despondent at the thought that he would be odd man out after locking up Mitch & Landry. Love that Leon recognized him as a priority signing and wasted no time in making it happen.
That’s fair. I meant most difficult because Leon coudn’t solve that problem with Dolan’s money due to restrictions. Similar to iHart. Leon had to convince Diawara and his scrub agent to hurry up and buy.
I really, really like this kid’s ceiling and LOVE him @ less than 1% of the salary cap between his playoff ages of 22 and 26.
Yes, very similar to iHart.
Simplest way to put it: if Mo got more than this, we were hard capped at the 2nd apron and Mitch and Shamet were almost certainly goners. He didn’t, so the possibility we keep one or both remains.
“I might honestly take Josh Hart straight up over him.”
Not to single out ess-dog, but this is one example of how Jaylen Brown has been chronically underrated here. I get that he is a high-volume/average-efficiency offensive player, but he’s the kind of player for whom the counting stats don’t tell the full story. His team has won 65% of the games that he has played in, and in those wins he shot 38% from 3 and has a TS% of .589. He is crazy streaky but is hot far more often than he is cold, and when he is hot he is unguardable. He has played in an average of 14 playoff games a season and won a finals MVP. He defends very well. Last year he led a bunch of scrubs to a 56 win season.
He’s not worth $60M AAV, but he’s a really freaking good player. At Josh Hart money he’d be the best contract in the NBA.
We will either stay under the 2nd apron and let Mitch walk or go over and sign him.
I couldn’t care less about losing Landry Shamet. I’d rather go over and keep Mitch at some reasonable figure (something like 3yrs/45M), but won’t be all that bummed if he and his fragile bones and FT woes gets a bag from someone else and we go fishing for a replacement either in the draft or on the cheap. Plus I think Huk is going to make a Queta-like leap sooner than later.
I agree with Z Man on Jaylen Brown. I don’t think Brown is an MVP contender the way some in the media were suggesting this year, but he’s very good on BOTH sides. Players that are a clear plus on BOTH sides are not so easy to find. To me Giannis is a great player (when healthy). So I consider Giannis an upgrade, but there is some injury risk in that trade.
Bill Simmons was there on his podcast today saying that he would have second thoughts about a Brown for Giannis straight up trade. Come on now.
Giannis BPM in the last 3 seasons: 9, 9.5, 9.5
Brown BPM in the last 3 seasons: 0.7, 0, 3.0
I like Shamet.
I’m still debating with myself whether I’d rather have Shamet or Deuce because I don’t think we absolutely need both if Avarado is staying (which seems more likely today). To be clear, I’d rather have both, but if money is an issue we could probably trade Deuce and get a draft asset, keep Shamet and Shamet will be cheaper than Deuce on their next contracts. Then again, I think Deuce is the mildly better player. Then again, Shamet was better in the playoffs and WAY better in the finals. Hmmmn 😉
Diawara highlights in case you miss basketball:
https://x.com/JakeBr0wn/status/2069185415353975248?s=20
Assuming Giannis lands in Boston because Miami package is straight trash, – we will need somone who can slow down either Giannis or Tatum. OG can’t guard both at the same time. Mitch value increases to us while Bridges decreases.
Wonder what everyone thinks about Maxie Kleber @ vet minimum instead of Clarkson?
Gemini says he’s one of top five people who had career success guarding Giannis.
TBD
Last year everyone was convinced that the Bucks would never trade Giannis for KAT + Mikal or OG, and now he’s getting traded for Jaylen Brown, lol.
And now we’d probably be the team to say no to KAT for Giannis straight up, right?
Absolutely. In a vacuum, Giannis is surely better. But KAT unlocks this team in a way that Giannis wouldn’t, in my view.
Giannis would be awesome in lieu of Randle in the Jan 2024 Knicks.
Posted a few months ago when some here were jonesing for Giannis (how times have changed!!!), and posting again now:
Giannis Antetokounmpo’s most notable playoff injuries include a severe left knee hyperextension and bone bruise in the 2021 Eastern Conference Finals, a back injury during the 2023 First Round, and a Soleus (calf) strain that caused him to miss the entire 2024 postseason.
The breakdown of his major playoff injuries by year:
2024 Playoffs
Injury: Soleus (calf) strain.
Impact: Suffered right at the end of the regular season, causing him to miss the Bucks’ entire First Round series against the Indiana Pacers.
2023 Playoffs
Injury: Lower back contusion.
Impact: Exited Game 1 of the First Round series against the Miami Heat and missed Games 2 and 3. He returned for Games 4 and 5, but was visibly limited, ultimately resulting in a shocking series upset.
2021 Playoffs
Injury: Left knee hyperextension and bone bruise.
Impact: Sustained in Game 4 of the Eastern Conference Finals against the Atlanta Hawks when his knee buckled backward. Though it initially sparked fears of a torn ACL, he missed only two games and returned for the NBA Finals, famously recording 50 points in the championship-clinching Game 6.
2020 Playoffs
Injury: Right ankle sprain.
Impact: Re-aggravated a previous ankle sprain in the NBA Bubble during Game 4 of the Eastern Conference Semifinals against the Miami Heat, which knocked him out for the remainder of the series.
And I’m sorry, but Maxi Klieber is way past the point when he was worth giving even a minimum contract to. He’s now injury-prone and washed, and he was never that great to begin with. In his past three seasons, he’s played a total of 120 games, with per 36s of 6.9 points, 5.9 rebounds, 2.5 assists, and 1.1 blocks, with .422/.305/.670 shooting splits in 16.4 minutes per game. No, thanks.
Ha I just listened to the Simmons podcast… great reader email about how Jimmy Butler is ringless while KAT & Wiggins were both top 3 players on a title team.
I’m old enough to remember when Butler was referred to as Playoff Jimmy.
I still think Dadiet is a trade candidate to free up his $3 mil. Also trading our first for a future first or high seconds. An extra $5-6 mil could make the difference. In keeping Mitch and Shamet (or in Z-Man’s words, “two pathetic losers who should die in a ditch.”)
lol ess, to be clear, I have loved Mitch on his deal (you know, the one Leon signed him to despite multiple teams being willing to pay him the max or whatever), just not at the fetish level that some here do, which is ironic because no one was higher on him than me when we drafted him. I’m just not in the “sign him for whatever it costs just to keep the gang together” camp. And I guess I’m a bit more optimistic about Huk than most here. But I would love to keep him at the right price, taking into account his very significant issues.
As to Shamet, he’s a nice player, but I’m not going to be all that upset if he moves on for a better payday if Leon (or Dolan or whoever) decides that the Knicks need to stay under the second apron. Maybe he’s the guy to use the TPMLE on, at the expense of Mitch.
Ultimately, I got the one championship I wanted, and I promised myself (and said as much here) that Leon (or Dolan or whoever) deserves a shitload of grace in managing the roster and cap for a reasonable period of time. I respect that other feel differently, and hopefully that respect is mutual. But at the same time, I don’t have much respect for the hyperbolic hand-wringing over shit that hasn’t happened yet, especially when it comes from folks who are card-carrying members of Team The Sky Is Falling.
Speaking of Hukporti, he’s a RFA right now, any concern that he gets an offer that mucks things up even further?
Just curious: while I doubt we signed Mo to this deal to immediately turn around and trade him, could we in fact do that if we wanted to?
While I appreciated Huk’s minutes here and there in the playoffs, I think he’s fungible enough that I wouldn’t be to upset at losing him if Mitch is coming back.
Same, Alan, but what if Mitch isn’t coming back? Meaning, is there a chance that we lose both?
“Just curious: while I doubt we signed Mo to this deal to immediately turn around and trade him, could we in fact do that if we wanted to?”
I don’t think so, but am not sure.
Wow Randle to Brooklyn in 3-team deal
Interesting deal! I wonder how Julius will feel about returning to the NYC area, he seemed to be somewhat happy being away from it…
Oof Randle being straight salary dumped to Brooklyn. Wonder if Brooklyn will try and flip him somewhere else?
So do the Bulls get Claxton for nothing? That seems odd.
If he was salary dumped he might not have any value . Teams know who Randle is now.
The pressure of playing for the Jersey Nets isn’t the same
Yeah, seems like Claxton might have had a bit more value than 5 draft slots. Maybe the Nets are targeting Mara in a trade-down?

Brazile reminds me of Obi Toppin.
Giannis to Miami along with Bobby Portis for Herro, Ware, Jaquez, Jakucionis, and some other stuff. Other stuff looks like three firsts, a second, and a pick swap. Milwaukee won this one.
man….miami was desperate ….they emptied the coffers
For a guy who is likely to be injured for the playoffs, if he even gets them there. I’m thinking that he won’t.
This is also kind of an indirect slight win for us over him going to Boston.
I still can’t believe the Bucks ever traded for that Kuzma contract, what morons…
Miami didn’t have the pieces to land Lillard, then offer the same pieces for Giannis and get him. A penny saved is a penny earned?
I think it’s a win for Boston and the Bucks and a loss for Miami. Sounds like Riley, at his age, is thinking it’s now or never. I guess Spo makes them a bit more dangerous, but not much.
Looking at some draft video, I think I’d go with Ejiofor over Reed Jr. When they played head-to-head, Tarris’s defense really got exposed. He’s strictly a low-post offensive player. Ejiofor is a tweaked 3pt shot away from a very valuable big, athletic wing.
