PostSportsPlus: How the Knicks’ front office fumbled its long pursuit of Donovan Mitchell
The failed Donovan Mitchell negotiation was another example of a Knicks front office structure struggling to jell.
Many league sources have contended Rose’s front office hierarchy is confusing, and that confusion gets pronounced during trade talks when teams hear different messages from different Knicks executives. That is why Rosas was put in command. The Knicks coaching staff felt the addition could’ve led them to close to a 50-win season, and laid the groundwork to add another star to Brunson-Mitchell-Julius Randle.
In July and August, had the Knicks offered Barrett and Evan Fournier with three unprotected first-round picks and a pick swap and two protected first-round picks, that would’ve gotten the job done.
