Trade RJ Barrett For DeMar DeRozan? | NY Knicks Trade Rumors



New York Knicks trade rumors are going to come flying at us for the next two months after our Knicks were bounced in the NBA playoffs by the Miami Heat. Today, we welcome Sieps onto the show as the Chat Sports Chicago Bulls guy to discuss a Knicks trade for DeMar DeRozan. The Knicks are much closer to a title than they’ve been in decades, but are core members Julius Randle and RJ Barrett going to be a part of this team in the future?

Via Bleacher Report on a DeMar DeRozan trade:
A deal like this would buy the Bulls some breathing room without completely abandoning the idea of competing sooner than later. Swapping out DeMar DeRozan for RJ Barrett would make Chicago younger and more defensively resistant on the wings. While DeRozan is the better scorer and creator now, things could shift Barrett’s direction sooner than later.
Meanwhile, the Knicks might see their playoff exit as a reason to add offensive firepower. DeRozan is the player right now whom they hope Barrett will one day become. Do this deal, and New York would have one of the league’s top scoring trios with DeRozan, Jalen Brunson and Julius Randle.

Knicks/Bulls trade idea from B/R:
Knicks Receive: DeMar DeRozan (G)
Bulls Receive: RJ Barrett (F) Isaiah Hartenstein (C)

DeRozan’s 2022-23 NBA season stats: 24.5 PPG, 4.6 RPG, 5.1 APG, 32.4% 3-PT

    I wish these idiots would trade RJ for Derozan. The Knicks need spacing. RJ isn’t great but damn he has more years ahead of him to add to his game.

  4. Jj Munz

    Do not trade rj. Do not trade grimes. Do not trade toppin. Do not trade Immanuel. Cool out with the ignorant trade proposals

  6. fancy mortimer

    Bleacher Report proposes deals for the Knicks that are special ed. They always involve Knicks getting a 35 year old who plays 50 games a year for our whole young core and like 5 draft picks. GTFOH, Bleacher Report. Your writing staff is Chat GPT.

  8. Cool 60

    I get this but Demar is a proven all-star, whereas R.J. may never become one? Demar gives you a real star and not a potential one! Do you want Proven or Still trying to be Proven!!!!!

    As a Knicks fan, that's one of the Dumbest trades i've ever seen in my entire life!
    22yo RJ Barret & One of our best bench players in Hartenstein, for a 34yo Derozan who can't shoot 3s & is a bad defender, While the knicks main priority right now should be improving 3pt shooting & Wing Defense!!! The Knicks shouldn't even CONSIDER that at any stretch of imagination!
    Peace ✌🏻

    Demar Derozan is definitely top 25 player. Overtime, I think RJ fits the athleticism and shooting we need. I don't know if Derozan can keep up this efficiency. I think RJ becomes the discipline in the span of 2 years. We could assess trading him or keeping him.

  12. Dave Cerreta

    These trades are just ridiculous. Our front office is not going to trade a 22 year old 34-year-old on his way out.

  13. Wooden Pearl

    Most of these trade scenarios are ridiculous, including this one, but I guess it’s better than nothing. No need to force videos every day 🤦🏽‍♂️

  23. Du

    Nah hire Melo as offensive trainer randle and Barrett need his moves.

  24. Ginger Turtle

    Knicks should of signed derozan and lowery when they had the chance . Rj needs to be used in Brandon Ingram trade . Rj Evan and picks

  26. Mark Keats

    Who comes up with these ridiculous trades for an aging player. Bleacher report is fake news. Knicks of yesterday would make these dopey trades. RJ good is only 22 years old & Leon would not do it. Maybe Fournier & Hartenstein?

  29. Macho Man

    It's a silly trade idea Barrett is only 22. The Bulls have nothing to offer us. Make this trade and ruin our franchise.

  30. L A

    No. Y would we trade a young piece? RJ has a higher ceiling than Derozan

  32. Sneakyninja 08

    Ehh derozan old.rj like an inexperienced/inconsistent jimmy butler. I’ll take rj cause I feel Ike in a couple years he gonna be more consistent.

  33. BKLYN YKTV

    We need lavine bulls can keep DeRozan im tired of watching RJ & randle I hope we can get lavine & townes that's all we need

  34. BKLYN YKTV

    RJ has no game dude is a ball hog and let's not talk about turnovers and horrible defense

  38. Schuyler Hecht

    TRUE KNICK FANS KNOW…THAT IF WE GIVE UP ON BARRETT, HE WILL BITE US IN THE ASS 5 YEARS DOWN THE ROAD!!!! HE IS ONLY 22!!! HES GETTING MUUUCCCHHHH BETTER WITH AGE!!!! we have been here before Knick fans…do NOT give up on this core of youth…
