Just watched the Phil press conference. What Phil said and the way he said it sure as hell made it seem like Porzingis is gone.
Details? I really hope Danny is open to a mild-moderate overpay here. Dude fills so many needs...
"We're getting calls. As much as we value Kristaps and what he's done for us, when a guy doesn't show up for an exit meeting, everybody starts speculating on the duration or movability from a club," Jackson said in an interview on MSG Network.
"So we've been getting calls and we're listening, but we're not intrigued yet at this level.
But as much as we love this guy, we have to do what's good for our club."...
"I don't think I've ever had a player over 25 years of coaching not coming to an exit meeting, so it hasn't happened to me,'' Jackson said. "It happens to other people and other players. His brother and his agent have downplayed it, but still it's a chance for a person to express themselves. I had a real good relationship with Kristaps over the last two years. It was kind of surprising.''
Jackson seems really salty about the exit meeting, as if he was showed up. The "it happens to other people" seems to imply that it is a personal mission to trade Porzingis.
