Top Boston Celtics Scenarios Following the Sixers Trade
By Adam Miller
PorzinGOD Moving From the Big City?
I called it, I called it, I called it. Nearly a month ago to the day I wrote an article of the impending Kristaps Porzingis trade talks to Boston and here we are.
The Knicks are a complete dumpster fire plain and simple. The team is going nowhere fast with players like Rose, Anthony and Noah. The one shining light for the Knicks is their power forward Porzingis.
He’s an enigma. Pozingis is only 21 years of age and is 7’3. He possesses solid moves with his back to the basket and owns a smooth jumper that extend to the 3 point line. He’s a great interior defender and averages 2 blocks per game. In short, he’s exactly what the Celtics need and is much more realistic than Davis.
Rumors are that Porzingis has yet to speak with the Knicks since leaving for his home in Latvia. Since then, it’s been obvious the two have been on rough terms. This, and the idea of another full-blown rebuild could prompt the Knicks to trade Porzingis. The ever reliable Adrian Wojnarowski agrees.
Sources: As teams become aware Phil Jackson isn't ruling out possibility of trading Kristaps Porzingis, frenzy of interest is growing today.

In another tweet Woj says that the Knicks are interested in Arizona’s Markkanen. He has a similar build and skill set, so it’s possible he could be his replacement.
A possible trade package for the big man could include the #3 pick, 2 other first rounders and Crowder (who Phil Jackson is in love with).
