It's the Boomer and Geo podcast from WFAN. Hi, Boomer and Geo coming to you live from the Built Ford Tough studio on the fan and CBS Sports Network. 888-820-81019, number to join the show. And that's the Red Pocket Mobile fan line brought to you by your new ultimate cell carrier, Red Pocket Mobile. So things getting more interesting with Giannis yesterday as Shams... posts on x and writes an article about how he officially requested a trade and now the milwaukee bucks know that he is not going to be a part of their future either at the trade deadline this year or in the off season after the season and you would wonder you know why would you wait till the end of the season if he's causing this much trouble well the nba which is very complicated i'm not going to get into the weeds about it but once the season ends there's more people
picks that can be traded. There's these rules about odd picks, odd year picks and even year picks. It's just a whole mess. That's why there has to be a third team involved. You're not going to be going. I think there's got to be four teams involved, to be honest with you. Yeah, maybe a third, three or four teams, but you can't do it straight up. It's just impossible. You've got to make the money work. You've got to make the certain picks work. I think Mikael Bridges isn't eligible to be traded until February 1st, by the way.
What trade rumors are surrounding Giannis and the Knicks?
Whatever that rule is. Well, yeah, but the deadline is February 5th, so... I know, but what I'm saying, if they wanted to make the trade today, they couldn't. If you were involved in the trade. I mean, we're like three days away from being able to make it, but yeah. So, I mean, they would figure out a way to get Mikael Bridges in the deal, which I think he'd have to be. So, I'm doing as much reading as I can on this particular thing, and if the... I think the Golden State Warriors, as many people have reported, are in prime position to make that trade. However, Giannis has talked about only wanting to go to New York. So if he only wants to go to New York, first off, the Knicks are going to have to want him and make this trade.
So that's one thing we don't know. We assume that Leon Rose and Mike Brown and everybody over there and Jim Dolan would want to take Giannis. Giannis and have him on the team. But I don't know that for a fact, especially if they believe in Carl Anthony Towns more than we do. But let's just, for argument's sake, say that they do want Giannis. So one of the teams that I think would have to be involved with picks and the way that they had a trade with the Bucs earlier too and everything else would be the Portland Trailblazers. So then you have the Trailblazers, the Knicks, the Bucs, and maybe another team But the thing that I read that I think makes the most sense, and if they could somehow pull this off, where they would only have to trade, and it's only, but still, you're getting Giannis.
You would only have to part with Cat, which you knew had to be gone anyway, Mikael Bridges, and Deuce McBride. If you can make a deal where you get Giannis and then somebody back. Drew Holiday. You have to have somebody to replace Bridges. Exactly, I know. You need another wing guy. I saw somebody put out there, Jeremy Grant, who could replace that. He's got a big contract. He's a disappointing player, but whatever. So anyway, if you could do that, would you be happy with that? So let's just say that on the surface, there's so many different moving parts, but for the audience to be able to digest, if you got Giannis and then someone to replace Bridges that was competent and could play and only had to give up Cat, Mikael Bridges, and Deuce McBride, you're making that trade because that team is a better team than what you have right now.
So that means Tyler Kolek would end up getting more playing time. Yes. How about if it were Tyler Kolek as opposed to Bridges? No, it's not going to happen. And not Bridges.
How does the NBA trade process work for Giannis?
McBride. No. No. Okay. You don't think so? No, it wouldn't happen. No. Deuce McBride is a very tradable asset. Teams were going to want him.
