Nope.

Hopefully it is the Wizards or the Hornets. These franchises desperately need something. Especially Charlotte.
I feel like Flagg's talent would be wasted there. He'll probably push for a trade if he ends up there...

Push all you want.

The way contracts are structured the team gets like 7 years before the player has any real leverage.

Things can change a lot in 7 years.

Very true. Things can flip fast when guys like Flagg enter the converstation...

Things have not exactly worked out for the Knicks the way they hoped they would this season.

They should go after KD this offseason. Trade OG and Robinson to the Suns for KD.

KD, KAT and Brunson would be a pretty good trio. Bridges and Hart could do the dirty work.

KD gets mentioned a lot but it’s pretty close to time to realize he isn’t going to be that guy that puts you over the top anymore.

Also trading OG who is their best player not named towns or Brunson and also is hands down their best defender would be silly. KD will be 37 before the start of next season. They are also going to finish with a better record than they did last season most likely and also come close to their over/under win projection. I

Just what the Knicks need …

Another player who spends half a season on the injured list

No surprise.

They have elite perimeter defenders up and down their roster.
I can’t tell you how many times this season Ive seen a team come out on fire from 3. Sometimes it lasts a half, but the Thunder just keep playing their game and eventually they quit going in. I don’t think trying to win the 3 pt game is the way to go after the Thunder but not many teams are equipped to try another way. You need lots of bigs like Dallas in my opinion.

That's what concerns me most re: the Lakers possibly facing them in the playoffs.

I think the Lakers are better overall with Luka instead of AD...but AD is a post presence that OKC struggled some against.

So, they're better against most of the rest of the league, but a little worse against the team they're likely to have to go through if they make the WCF.

I like Jaxson Hayes...but he ain't causing Hartenstein or Chet any sleepless nights. lol

Why do you hate Flagg?

Also, why are the league worst Jazz not in this mix? Worst record, Danny Ainge, and Cooper fits the state demographic...

Watch him (un)surprisingly end up with the Spurs.

Because it's Danny Ainge (the most punchable face in NBA history), that's why.

There is no logical reason for anyone to want Flagg to go to Utah.

You want to reward their fans for having racist tendencies?

Utah is one of the worst markets in the league. Washington and Charlotte would be far more preferable from a league marketing standpoint.
