What would you give up for Porzingis?
- Thread starter Tetsujin
- Start date
Sorry
Sorry I call this bs, he is a elite defender, he can guard after pnr best guards in this league, he is top 5 rim protecter in the league, when you have a point guard like D rose who doesn't know what is defence, then ofcourse there will be a problem. His only weakness is he 50 % of the time forgots about stretch 4,he sometimes leave them open, I have seen almost all his NBA games i'm that kind of guy tbh.

I wouldn't be surprised if Vlade is calling Phil about this.
Zinger was his target in the WCS draft, if I remember correctly.
I'd probably start the offer at pick 5. But go as high as 5 + 10 (not a lot of great prospects at 10) + WCS or KK for him.
As others have mentioned: Hield/Skal/Zinger is a pretty rocking core

I'd think that Phil is too much of an egoist to care about fan and media response to a Zinger trade. He's trashed the Knicks and is going to bounce with his millions. Maybe he'll write a book about it and blame everything on Melo and Dolan.
I wouldn't be surprised if a Zinger trade did go down.
Although, I do agree with you about that media floosie feeling left out!

Thats surprising. I've seen quite many games from him and in my opinion he has been quite bad on those games defensively. Especially on pick n roll he looked bad to me. Also I was listening a Nate Duncan podcast while back and he too was talking about that he wont be a real superstar unless he moves to 5 and becomes a great rim protector. And Nate is probably the podcaster whos opinion I value the most. Obviously Porzingis plays the wrong position at the moment in order to capitalize all his talent on offense and in defense. But if you have seen that many games from him I gotta give your opinion some value then.
5,10 and Hield? reaaly?
No matter how much Cuz trade was bad, trading Cuz and first round pick for Porzingis would be even worse, and that is what has been proposed here.
I strongly doubt that team with Porzingis instead of Cuz is better.
Heck, even just 5 and Hield might be too much for us to have anything to show. Porzingis is not LeBron/Jordan nor even Cuz yet.
Like it or not, we are banking on our drafts and cap space and we need to luck out on Pick 5 to have any hope to get out of basketball hell.

I would not give up 5 and Hield for Porzingis. He's good but we would be gutting the team. The Kings need quality and quantity. Not just quality. We had that with Cousins but there wasn't enough quantity to go along with him. This draft needs to be nailed down perfectly along with most of our young players developing into quality players. We aren't going to win with one good player, a couple of decent players and a handful of bench warmers.
1. Vlade - Offer #5, Richardson, Koufos,#34, For Porzingas and salary filler.
2. Then we draft DSJ at #10
3 Get Harkless and #26 from Portland
4. sign DC and Bogs in FA
Yeah, Yeah It could never happen- way to many maybe's
But question was What I would give up?
Yeah #5 and Buddy - NO WAY
DSJ, DC
Buddy, Bogs
Harkless, Temple,#26-BPA
WCS, Skal
Porzingas, Papa G

Knicks president Phil Jackson is making calls to teams about a Porzingis trade, according to The Vertical’s Adrian Wojnarowski on Facebook Live. New York is looking to receive a top-4 pick and an established starter in return for the versatile 7-footer. Philadelphia, Los Angeles, Boston and Phoenix hold picks No. 1 through 4, in that order, in Thursday’s NBA Draft.

Sorry guys. The price for him is pretty steep. Don't think we're getting him. I'm more worried a top 4 team will make the trade because I don't know who they'll be after with a top 4 pick
