Mitchell Robinson's name came up in trade talks between Knicks, Blazers for Jrue Holiday
Mitchell Robinson’s name came up in the Knicks’ talks with Portland about a potential Jrue Holiday trade, per SNY sources. Obviously, nothing came to fruition there, but any team talking to the Knicks about a significant deal will probably ask about Robinson. He’s young, productive and on a reasonable contract.

New: “When you have two guys who can defend like they defend, it makes your defense pretty fucking good.”
It’s only been a week, but the Jrue Holiday/Derrick White defensive backcourt is already creating some buzz.

More on this storyline
In the process of gaining Dame, what was it like to lose Jrue Holiday, who was not only a great player but a good friend? Giannis Antetokounmpo: People just talk about basketball. But it’s not just about basketball. It’s about going to school and seeing him there, dropping his kids there and I’m dropping my kid there and talking about our kids and talking about life. It’s bigger than basketball, obviously. With Jrue, I won a championship and he’s the reason why now I’m a champion. And there were so many days he was sitting right next to me and we were talking before the game and we were about to play a big game, Game 5, Game 6, Game 7, and check on one another. ‘Hey, man, you good? How are you feeling today? I feel good. How are you feeling? Big fella, you’re good? Good. We’re going to get this one today. OK?’ -via Andscape / October 15, 2023
Giannis Antetkounmpo: All those conversations were before you go to war, but that’s basketball. But there were conversations outside of basketball. Our families was very close. Our kids are very close. A guy with a great and positive energy every time he came to the practice facility or came to the arena. He had something about him that allowed you, when you were next to him, to feel good about yourself. I’m definitely going to miss it. And again, I wish him the best in everything that he does. And you never know down the road, you still might be teammates again. I love him. I don’t love him as a basketball player. I love him as a brother. -via Andscape / October 15, 2023
Giannis Antetokounmpo: I wish him and his wife and his kids and his extended family the best. They always took care of me and my family. They always were nice and kind to me. They gave everything they could for not just the Milwaukee Bucks organization, but the city, the community. And again, I wish him the best in the next chapter wow with the Boston Celtics — not against us; against everybody else. But it’s definitely bittersweet. But now you just got to look at today and look about how can we get better right now and tomorrow. Get ready for the season right now. Dame, I’m excited for him to be here and I’m excited to go to war with him every single day. -via Andscape / October 15, 2023
The asking price for a player like New York’s Mitchell Robinson, sources told Yahoo Sports, is multiple first-round picks — probably a non-starter for most clubs. -via Yahoo! Sports / September 29, 2023
When asked specifically to pinpoint what troubled him most about that non-competitive five-game series with New York, Garland paused nearly 5 seconds before answering. “We didn’t play our best throughout the entire series,” Garland lamented. “Even the game we won at home that was a blowout, still feel we had a lot of mistakes that we could have cleaned up in that game — different ways to attack their switches, how to better attack Mitchell Robinson. Those were a couple things that stuck with me. I’ve been watching a lot of film of it this summer. Just trying to find ways to improve for next year. -via Cleveland Plain Dealer / August 1, 2023
