Bold of you to assume Thibs won't have Burks bringing up the ball to begin with :lol:

Loved Grimes, but we have no time for development. As I said Brunson changed any timeline we've had. It's time to go get it now.

Edited.. didn't see we traded Fournier.

Haven't felt this excited since we trade Mutombo for Jerome WIlliams.

pg burks in full effect

I think we should bring Brunson off the bench as the new IQ, and start Burks. More length and defense for starting lineup.

im torn about this. i hate burks but he can shoot 3s at a high clip i guess. bojan is good. but grimes was a damn good defender with even his flaws offensively. he started to cook the last 2 games before he got hurt again. oh well. i hope this ends up being another og trade in terms of being making our team much better again.

im excited for bojan at least

Hate to say it, but even Burks is better than Grimes. Can't be mad at this trade unless you think Grimes is destined to get better, and there's no way to know that.

Also love that they traded seconds. The trade thread had guys throwing in firsts just cause we have them. Like giving a fat kid $20 in front of McDonalds and wondering why he has a #2 Large Double Cheeseburger Combo in his back pocket.

I especially love that we got another SF. We have enough guards, and OG can easily play guard too. A Brunson/OG/Bojan/Randle/iHart or Mitch lineup is going to do hella damage.

McBride and Sims too I suppose, but they never carried the same expectations as those first-round picks.

Your longest tenured Knick….Mitchell Robinson

fantastic perimeter defender. one of the best gaurds on the league at fighting over screens. shot has been very inconsistent this year and hes struggled with confidence but the shooting form and release is legit and I think he’ll turn it around. can become a very valuable 3-D wing for ya’ll

Thanks, I'm rooting for you guys to take it all the way with me being a New Yorker and all plus the Knicks are hella fun to watch. Brunson is my favorite non-Pistons player. Burks and Bogey should fit well with you guys.

What I also like about this trade is that we have 40mil (EVAN + BB) expiring in the offseason. That money plus our FRP gets us a star.

Fournier is in this trade.

Grimes is the cost of bojan. The 2 2nds are the cost for Burks.

When you look at it that way its makes a lot of sense...thanks!

Synciere · Post #139 » by **Synciere** » Thu Feb 8, 2024 4:51 pm

Also, teams love Bojan. His 24 mil expiring is way more valuable and an easier fit on almost every team than trying to pawn off Dejounte in the summer. And if Donovan or nobody gets moved, he's still a great fit on this team next year....
