Are the Rockets, Wizards and Knicks planning a three-party deal? What does Whitmore involve?
9:00am, 23 May 2025【Basketball】
NBA playoffs entered the East-West Finals stage, and the Knicks played extremely anxiously at home against the Pacers. Halliburton put in a tied three-pointer to drag the game into overtime, and the Pacers' morale boosted in overtime, causing the Knicks' efforts to vanish throughout the game. Head coach Thibodeau is still stubborn, with the minimum playing time of the starting five players, and Bridges' playing time of even as high as 46 minutes. This way of employing people increases the risk of injury to the main players, making people wonder whether the starting five players can survive healthily until the final championship moment even if the Knicks reach the NBA Finals. The Knicks' first loss is likely to affect the future trend of this round of series. The Pacers are no less than a bottom. Head coach Carlisle has built a team with the strongest offensive firepower in the league.

Recently, US media reporter Jack Fisher, a reporter from the "Open Sports Stand" of US media, suggested that the Knicks management will use the Rockets' frustrated small forward Whitmore as the primary target of signing this summer. He has top athletic ability, strong self-confidence and rich scoring methods, which can provide sufficient firepower support to the Knicks' second team and help the main players get more rest time. The media provided a three-party trading offer to the Rockets, Wizards and Knicks. The specific trading plan is:
1. The Knicks gave Parker Dadiye + the 26th pick first round pick in 2025 Knicks + the 2030 Knicks' first round pick swap rights to get Cameron Whitmore;
2. The Rockets gave Cameron Whitmore to get Sadiq Bay + the 2030 Knicks' first round pick swap rights to get Parker Dadiye + the 2025 Knicks' first round pick swap rights. The Rockets have made great progress this season and are ranked second in the Western Conference in the regular season. Shin Kyung played an All-Star performance; Jaylen Green attended two consecutive seasons and became the Rockets' scoring champion; Amen Thompson has become the cornerstone of the Rockets' team building; Van Vleet and Dillon Brooks play the role that veterans should have; Jabbarry Smith, Tari Ethan and Adams each perform their duties. But Whitmore and Shepard's performance was disappointing. The White Devils' performance this season was not as expected and have been kicked out of the rotation lineup by head coach Uduka. Shepard failed to show the strength that the draft was worth. Udukaning was willing to use the basic salary player Holiday Jr., and she was not at ease to leave Shepard on the court.

Knicks have a relatively weak substitute strength, and Whitmore is expected to show all of its energy in the Big Apple City. Sadiq Bay suffered a torn ACL in March last year and then signed a three-year, $20 million contract with the Wizards. Bay played 63 games for the Hawks last season, averaging 32.7 minutes per game, scoring 13.7 points, 6.5 rebounds and 1.5 assists. He is a player with greater strength than fame. He has worked diligently on the court, his playing style is simple and unpretentious, and his ability to both offense and defense is relatively balanced. Rockets reporter Iko once wrote an article to disclose that when the management formulates a plan to strengthen the lineup during the offseason, although it values shooting, adding only simple shooters is not the best choice. Players like Sadiq Bay who have both offense and defense can arouse the interest of general manager Raphael Stone.
