MAJOR Knicks Trade Coming After Opening Roster Spot? + ESPN LINKS Daniel Gafford To Knicks
Coming up on today’s show we’re going to talk about the idea of the Knicks making another big trade pretty soon here because Knicks beat reporters and Begley and Fred Catz they hinted at the idea with Taj Gibson being released and a roster spot opening up on this team that
The Knicks are going to potentially make another big trade so we’re going to break that down but first I have a little bit of a bone to pick with all of the real ones out there first I want to say thank you to everybody that has subscribed to this channel we’re up to
30 2,000 Subs but only 13.6 of you guys have your notifications turned on now is the time to change that go hit the Bell icon underneath this video select all so you get notified every single time we put out a video it’s trade rumor season the NBA trade deadline is a month away
Now’s the Time to do it hit that Bell icon And subscribe if you’re not Already you’re watching Nicks Now by Chad Sports I am your host Marshall Green just want to say thank you to everybody out there that has taken time out of their busy schedule to rock and roll with us as we catch you up with everything surrounding this basketball team news over the past
Couple of days at least the biggest news was the Knicks moving on from veteran Taj Gibson with the Knicks moving on from Gibson they now have another roster spot they’re only carrying 14 players so the idea there at at least from some Nicks insiders is that another deal
Could be going could be coming where the Knicks trade out maybe two players get back one player trade three get back to we’ll break that down but first I just want to say thank you as well to Taj Gibson let’s get the 67s in the chat for
The New York native but I was a little upset that the Knicks are moving on from TSH I’m a big fan of his I uh respect what he’s about when it comes to a person and a basketball player and I think tibs should hire TSH Gibson as an
Assistant coach to this roster he knows some of the younger players he knows what it’s like to play for tibs and just another extension of the coaching staff so get the 67s in the chat for Taj I’d love to see him on the sideline at MSG
Fred Katz though one of the best in the game that works for the athletic said this the Knicks are waving Taj Gibson it gives the Knicks extra flexibility leading into the NBA trade deadline they will have 14 players which gives them the ability to make a two for one or
Three for two trade Gibson’s contract was already set to guarantee today talking about on January 7th that is why they decided to make the move Ian Begley also kind of doubled down with what Fred cat’s saying regarding Gibson being waved he’s heard New York made tough decisions to impart give them roster
Flexibility as they expect to be active between now in the NBA trade deadline New York has an open roster spot Club holds Gibson in high regard appreciates what he did for them so you got two of the best Ian Begley for SNY Fred Kats of the athletic check them out
Follow them on Twitter check their work two of the best in the business telling you that pretty much the Nicks are going to make another big move and they did did this so that they can have the flexibility to do so I think it is almost guaranteed at this point that the
Knicks from now until February 8th will make at minimum one more tradeit and for me if you watch this show you know I think it needs to come in the back court I love Duce McBride I appreciate everything he has done and will continue to do for this team and the fact that
He’s made it this far in the NBA after being a second round prick out of West Virginia just signed that threeyear 1314 million contract he deserves to be on this team but in the playoffs when Jaylen Brunson sits down I simply just don’t think he is a good enough option
To continue to keep you afloat when Brunson sits down I think the Knick’s need another guard and they have to to use Evan forer’s expiring $18.8 million that is too good of an asset sitting in your C of assets right now to let go to waste because it will
Go to waste in 32 days so the Nick need to find a way to turn that expiring contract into a player that doesn’t just help this team for the now but also for the future I also think there’s no need to rush into a trade the Nicks don’t
Have to make a trade today on January 8th they don’t need to make a trade on January 18th or January 28th just make the deal before February 8th take the time from now these next 31 days and these next 15 games to fully evaluate this roster let it play out let’s see
How the top three goes when it’s Brunson and Randall and ogan and Obi Let’s See How duce McBride becomes more of a as he becomes more of a rotational player how he continues to play you don’t need to make the move now use the next month in
The next 15 games to fully understand what this team needs and what they have to add at the trade deadline to help them get potentially to the Eastern Conference Finals this year before we shift to talk about a player that ESPN is linked to the Knicks I want to ask
You this question what is a bigger need for this Knicks roster right now do they need to add another guard or do they need to go out there and add a big man type G for guard type B for big I want to know what you have to say and coming
Up around the corner we’re going to break down some quotes from Brian windhorse Tim bontemps and McMahon of ESPN they have linked an Eastern Conference big man to the New York Knicks we’ll break that down but first I got to give a huge shout out to today’s

Nix ch50 save yourself some money 50% off before we talk about the potential player that the Knicks have been linked to I first want to talk about what windhorse McMahon and bontemps talked about because there’s been a lot of talk about Leon Rose head of CAA the nixb and CAA
Mafia that they wouldn’t trade for any clutch clients any play players rep by clutch Sports in Rich Paul and they kind of put that to bed because we know that Deon Murray has been linked to the Knicks and there’s been some talk especially with Zack line in the past
The Knicks don’t want to add any clutch clients well Brian wior said this I don’t believe that for a second Bon Temps then said I don’t either Wendy went on to say if it benefits the Knicks they’re trading for a clutch guy bontemps laid it out perfectly they
Wanted OG anobi last year when he was a clutch Sports guy and the only reason OG left clutch was because his agent left the business wior also said look the Knicks just did a deal with the Raptors who they are suing in the NBA you have
To do business with who you do business with you can’t hold grudges like that it’s just never going to get you anywhere and I do agree that the Knicks if they value a player in clutch Sports they think that player can fit into the culture and raise their ceiling when it
Comes as a success they will trade for that guy but CA Mafia is 100% a thing thing so potentially this is good news when it comes to Jon Murray but I also just want to remind everybody that Malcolm Brogden is a part of the ca Mafia and those are the two guys that
Remain at the top of the wish wish list for Marshall green and his trade targets for the Knicks Tim bonim thinks the niick should go after a big man he talked about the idea of the Knicks trading for Daniel Gafford bontemps of ESPN think the Knicks could actually
Trade for Gafford instead of a guard said I actually think the more likely path they’ll take if they’re going to add one piece is to get a big man the guy I think would be really interesting for the Knicks is the guy in Washington Daniel Gafford you pair him with Isaiah
Hardenstein you get back to 48 minutes of high quality Center play and the Knicks would absolutely get better if they added a guy like Gafford 6’1 he’s young 240 lbs he’s giving you 10 and a half points per game this year almost eight rebounds two plus box per game
He’s an athletic freak we saw him play just a couple of days ago for the Washington Wizards we saw him absolutely posterize a guy like Isaiah hardenstein he jumps out of the gym and probably my favorite thing about him is he averages 2.7 offensive rebounds per game this
Year that would help the Knicks get back to that identity where they want to dominate teams on the offensive glass and get more possessions but my question to all the real ones out there is this do the Knicks need do they need another big I think you could answer that by
Saying yes because they don’t have Mitchell Robinson anymore and for that reason alone that is why you’re potentially going to go out and trade for another big man like that but in my opinion Isaiah hartenstein has played so well I don’t think that you need to go
Out and trade assets that you could use in a trade to help the back court and use those to help the front court because I because I believe Isaiah hartstein can play 38 minutes in a playoff series I think pre sucha could come in there and get you 10 minutes and
If you want to run small you can run a pretty big small lineup with Randall anobi and Josh Hart all at the 54 and the three Tommy beer one of the best followers on Nick’s Twitter check him out it’s my guy right there um pretty much just right here he’s talking about
How good Isaiah hardenstein is listen to this it’s been a full month since Mitchell Robinson suffered his season ending ankle injury in Boston on December 8th since that trade a 16 game stretch Isaiah hardenstein ranks third in the NBA in offensive boards fourth in total rebounds one spot of Rudy goar
Seventh in Steels just behind dearon Fox seventh in blocks ahead of Miles Turner and jiren Jackson and maybe most impressively hartenstein has posted the third highest plus minus among all Cent centers trailing the only two-time MVP Nicole yic and reigning MVP jool and beat in the 16 gam since Mitchell
Robinson went down the Knicks have outscored their opponents by 135 points in the 526 minutes Isaiah hartstein has been on the floor incredibly they’ve been out scored by 94 points in the 242 minutes when he’s on the bench so you read this last stat you’re probably like well maybe Marshall
NX do need to go out and add another Center I’m not ready to rule out Mitchell Robinson for the season he got hurt on December 8th it was announced on December 11th that he would be out 8 to 10 weeks I’m not good at math I don’t
Know the calendar that well but December 11th in 8 to 10 weeks that doesn’t equal the rest of the season and Mitchell Robinson I believe this is on Facebook responded to a fan asking how is your foot I’m praying for healing said it’s going great been working on
It I’m not ready to rule out Mitchell Robinson for the entire season I know the Knicks applied for that exception but there’s a way that even if they get that exception Mitchell Robinson could still will come back this is a trade idea though from bullets forever and
Greg finberg I hope that is how you pronounce his name apologize if I said it wrong but he predicted that this trade will happen Daniel Gafford and Landry shamet go to the New York Knicks while Evan forier in a 2024 New York Nick first round pick I don’t want to
Um like kind of rip this guy but as NBA writers can we do a better job of talking about what first round picks are because a 2024 first round pick for the Knicks that tells me it’s unprotected and there is no way in hell I am involving an unprotected pick for Daniel
Gafford and Landry Shaman Shaman is a guy though that can come off the bench and light it up from downtown he hasn’t shot less than 36.8% from Beyond The Arc in the last four seasons he’s a great spot up shooter no doubt about it he can
Help you score there but is he good enough to ask on top of Daniel Gafford for a 2024 New York Nick first round pick no way no way in hell would I do this trade I’ll ask you though maybe I’m wrong maybe we do need another big and
We can add a shooter Off the Bench type A for accept type D for decline let me know if you would make this trade for me it’s declin it declined for a couple of reasons one I don’t think the best trade package that you can get back for an
Unprotected first round pick in Evan for is Daniel Gafford and Landry shamut two I’m not trading a first round pick that is owned by the New York Knicks for any player that doesn’t move the needle from the Knicks being contenders in the Eastern Conference to NBA Finals
Contenders because if you trade one of your first round picks that means you can only trade two of them in the future in the next couple of years because you can’t trade back-to-back first round picks due to the stien rule also this the Knicks would take themself out
Of any trade option at the deadline I think you can get better I’m not doing it just my take on that as always I just want to say thank you and I appreciate you for tuning in if you haven’t yet hit that thumbs up icon if you made this far
On the show you probably like what you saw and if you did make it this far on the show make sure you’re subscribed and give me a follow on Twitter at marshall Greenore

What is a bigger need for the Knicks? Type G for Guard | B for Big
We have to send Simms to the G league or trade him
No they don't NEED another big.
The priority for this team is a primary ball handling/initiating guard who can pull up.
That's Thibs UD he'll be back!
A guard I really like isiah hartenseyin
IHart earned that starting slot and has been performing better than anyone could have hoped; with Precious behind him and Sims as a 3rd option, we don't need a big. Brogden or Murray would be great pickups.

This is not for chat because they are always here I just find it humorous how all of a sudden now that the Knicks are doing good all of the so-called Knicks fans are now making videos as if they are always here. props to the OG's you guys know who you are
'G'
Love Taj. 67
B
Shout out to my NYKs
I definitely agree that Taj should be a coach. He is a great locker room presence.
Evan, Flynn and 1st for Brogdon
Precious for Drummond
hire as coach but stay in shape just in case he is needed again
big. in the east you will see embiid or giannis eventually. slow them down and you win the series
I would trade the useless first from WAS I think we really do need a center Mitch now has been labeled a chronic injury risk two years in a row missing a lot of time I doubt he is a full go come playoff time and you need to give IHART some rest other wise he be dead tire come playoff time he has never ever played this kind of minutes in his life.
Yes we need another piece, but should we just go with what we got and at the end of the season a super star could be available. Plus we still have a stock pile of 1 round picks to move.
67
I think dejante for Fournier and a couple draft picks isn't a bad move. Murray and OG together would be a defensive duo that hasn't been seen. I say go hard for Dejante or Mikal
67…alway be weary of reports that say “could” or “may” far from a sure thing
The Knicks need A g
D
Taj isnt expiring. Theres a team option next season.
Guard #1 and a big man
Defensive rebounding forward. Rim protector would be nice
67 I agree Give Gibson another job in the office and no for that trade
67 True New Yorker
They need a shooting guard
I like Gafford ALOT but not for all that….and quite frankly if Mitch can come back this season he is redundant.
D
Can anyone see that the trade has allowed Hart, DiVincenzo, Mcbride and Grimes to step up and show case. As well as the addition of Anunoby , who has fit in phenomenally. But "NOBODY" can overlook the Incredible play of Isaih Hartenstein. . His off the ball movement, rebounding and good passing ability, has been more than anyone has expected.
Pretty sure we can trade Fournier by draft night before new NBA year
We should go for another guard

The knicks got 8 players under 6'4 if we talking about there real height
