[Woj] The Toronto Raptors are finalizing a trade to send OG Anunoby to the New York Knicks for a package including RJ Barrett, Immanuel Quickley and draft considerations, sources tell ESPN.

Now Quickley can do his stupid fucking dances and skips and fingers guns down 20 points for a 12th place team.

This trade got me pumped for another trade to happen lmao I wish it was the trade deadline already 🤣
ajh_iii
This feels like a lateral move for both teams because RJ is at best a second option and OG Anunoby doesn’t move the needle in NY

Siakim is going to GS I’ve already made my peace with it. Kaminga, moody, and a bunch of picks if I had to guess

Oh wow.
That’s actually a haul. Wtf are the Knicks doing?
I know the Knicks weren’t in a position to give IQ the opportunities he needs (because their backcourt with Brunson would be too small), but in terms of value I’d almost put IQ on his own on OG’s level.
In fact, IQ’s been the better player when he gets a chance to start. Similar to how Rozier was only really good when he got to start with us.
If the Raptors can tap into that IQ, then this is a lolKnicks trade imo.

This doesn’t sound like TOR is trying to rebuild – they honestly seem better after this trade. NYK banking a lot on OG’s elite 3&D role playing ability. It’s worth a shot for both franchises I guess
wilkinsk
They’re getting rid of Barret???

Knicks go from mid to mid

This makes the Knicks the 4th best team in the East I’d say. They basically just upgraded Barrett to a significantly better player, I don’t think they will miss IQ that much considering he stunk in the playoffs last season

Precious going to the Knicks, too. Does that make it more or less likely we end up with Precious via the Grant TPE. I think less.

Knicks won this trade

I don’t see how this trade helps either team tbh. Very knicksy trade lol

Big trade for the Knicks but doesn’t move the needle for them imo. They’re probably better than Philly now? Still only makes them third behind C’s and Bucks. We’ll see
coacoanutbenjamn
This is great for the Celtics because it likely closes the door on OG going to Philly in free agency this summer

Good no more Quickley! He always drops 30 on us I swear

After watching the game last night that feels like a lot for Knicks to give up for OG, who didn’t particularly impress me last night..thought he was getting cooked by White. And to think last year Masai wanted 3 firsts for OG.

Don’t love this trade for NY

Knicks become a worse basketball team

I swear, some of the OG talk I see is wild. I just watched the raptors last night and I barely noticed OG for the majority of his minutes. I’m sure the advanced numbers show his defensive value but people talk about him like he’s a fringe all-star. I just don’t see it.

The worst thing you can do in the NBA is trade future assets for a win-now move when you’re not even close to contending for a championship.
That’s what made the Rudy Gobert trade so awful, and that’s why this is a dumb trade for the Knicks. You got Anunoby! Cool! Maybe you’ll get bounced in the second round instead of getting bounced in the second round. Congratulations.

The Knicks got the worst player in a two for one trade and gave up draft considerations? How very Knicks of them

RJ just has an incredible week and now is getting traded for a guy who is…the same?
What? Lol
Waesrdtfyg0987
The Knicks are precious and deserve a pat on the head.
stomach-bug
I thought for sure he was going to Philly. W for us I guess

Feels like an awful move for NYK. They didn’t want to pay IQ but want to pay OG?
BostonKarlMarx
I think ppl underestimate just how bad and soul sucking RJ Barrett is and how bad his contract is. only having to attach a second to get off him is a huge W for the knicks

Knicks gain on D but how they will replace nearly 35 points on O?

Knicks gave up 2 major rotation players for OG? That’s a lot

Rather the knicks than someone like the warriors
IQ in a bigger role with Scottie will be fun
The Siakam domino might fall soon
