The failed Donovan Mitchell negotiation was another example of a Knicks front office structure struggling to jell.
A source confirmed Gersson Rosas was point man in the trade talks with Jazz executives, headed by GM Justin Zanik and team president Danny Ainge.
Rosas became a Knicks consultant before February’s trade deadline, but the move still hasn’t been announced by the franchise.
Rosas is close to Tom Thibodeau from their time together with the Rockets, and Thibodeau became involved in the Spida’ talks.
