Knicks Original Anunoby TRADE Plans REVEALED… | New York Knicks News
The OG anobi trade for the New York Knicks has looked like a phenomenal success OG anobi is the perfect fit right behind Jaylen Brunson and Julius Randall however did you guys know that the OG and anobi trade didn’t go down as originally planned according to one NBA
Insider he notes that when the Knicks made the OG and and Obi trade they were supposed to get another player as well right after that de jante Murray we’re going to break down this massive report and so much more today so be sure you’re subscribe to the channel and have
Notifications turned on so you don’t miss a second of the new content and now let’s get started the Knicks had original plans when they first traded for OG and anobi and initially according to one NBA Insider in Michael Scot from Hoops hype he was speaking with Bobby Marx of ESPN
Recently and during that interview he basically said that when the New York Nick were trading for OG and anobi that they wanted to trade for Deon Murray right alongside him as well too but unfortunately they couldn’t do that because at the last second Toronto wanted Emanuel quickly and because the
Knicks preferred OG an anobi they went ahead and made the deal get done let’s take a look at this report exactly here according to Michael Scot of Hoops hype he said the following the way it was explain to me when they were trying to get OG and anobi they wanted to try and
Get both him and Deon Murray now what’s interesting to me is um I think the trade package for OG went a little differently than what New York originally anticipated and then after he stated this he followed up on this with his interview that he did with Bobby
Marks of ESPN and he said the following when he met with Bobby Marx according to him what’s interesting with the OG talks was that wasn’t necessarily the package that Nicks thought would get it done they had different conversations from what I was told certain certainly with
RJ Barrett being the focal point as the Canadian guy going to Toronto the thought originally was that it was going to be multiple draft picks with Barrett instead Toronto valued Emanuel quickly more than those picks that’s how quickly was essentially ended up being part of that deal and I would say the equivalent
Of two first round picks in the eyes of Toronto you get him under restricted free agency control they think he’s a starting caliber guard for that team he’s thrived since he continues by stating the shift in thinking instead of a rebuild with picks it’s more of a retool I would say with
Those guys for the Knicks it made things interesting because they thought at the time they were going to try to get both an anobi and Deon Murray my sense was there was a thought that quickley would be potentially going to Atlanta instead but Toronto got him first and the Knicks
Prioritized anobi first now the Knicks have Evan for’s contract they can dangle and they’ve got a boatload of first round picks shout out to Michael Scot and Bobby Marx of ESPN for giving us this massive update on the New York Knicks and what they were trying to do
Initially with the OG an anobi deal this is no shock surprise or anything like that at all to me you want to know why because I knew for a fact the New York Knicks wanted to make multiple moves however they were going to prioritize the move that they wanted more than
Anything else and according to Michael Scot that move was OG an anobi so if the Knicks could get OG an anobi and all was going to cost him was Emanuel quickley RJ Barrett a second round pick no future first round picks they were going to do that deal now they didn’t want to
Include quickly that’s the biggest part of this entire report in my opinion they either wanted to retain quickly or they wanted to utilize quickly in a deal with Atlanta to get de jeante Murray here and I think without a question without a doubt if you told me that the Knicks
Still had a manual quickly on this roster and they were still going after Deon Murray in my head it would be a done deal because that would be an automatic it would be easy to think that the Knicks could flip quickly Evan forier some picks in order to get deante
Murray on this roster that sounds feasible but when the Knicks gave up Emanuel quickly in order to get OG and anobi and they prioritized OG instead of dejon they made a choice and when they made that choice they said Toronto you can have quickly by doing that they went
Ahead and they took down their assets just by a little bit they still have the first round picks they still have Evan forier they still have Quinton Grimes they still have all of those things so I’m not trying to knock the Knicks and say they don’t have enough left in order
To make that deal for a star or a superstar however by losing quickly it definitely hurt a little bit in terms of making this an instantaneous type of deal with the Hawks to get de jante here because they don’t have quickly now becomes a question mark now the Hawks
Are looking around the league talking to the Lakers the Sixers all these different teams there are a lot of different teams on the table right now that could potentially go after de jonte Murray and get them not only the New York Knicks but the Knicks still have
All of the assets that they need to make a Murray deal happen they don’t have IQ it doesn’t hurt their process it just makes them now have to give up a little bit more in order to get Murray if they had IQ they would be able to get Murray
I believe with a little bit less picks added to it because as Michael Scot just told you Emanuel Quickly’s value at least around the league is two first round picks so that’s why the Toronto Raptors opted to trading for Emanuel quickly versus going after the Knicks picks getting all those picks and trying
To package those picks for another player or star that they could potentially go after to paer with whatever they’re trying to create with Scotty Barnes over there but now they don’t have to worry about that or do that they have their point guard of the future with Emanuel quickly they have
Another rising star in RJ Barrett over there alongside Scotty Barnes so that’s their future and with the New York Knicks we have OG and anobi the wing that we’ve always wanted the wing that we’ve needed and clearly he has fit in seamlessly with this Knicks team perfect fit perfect addition the absolute need
That the Knicks needed they filled with this trade however it is tough to hear that the Knicks were trying to land both de jante and OG at the same time and probably most likely if they retained IQ and didn’t give them up right after the Knicks announced they traded for OG it’s
Likely the trade right after that that they might have announced as soon as January 9th came would have been the Knicks trading for the jante Murray because I think IQ would have went a long way with Grimes a couple of picks with Evan forier and that would have got
It done and got dejonte Murray on this roster but when you say forier Grimes and picks it doesn’t sound the same without a man you quickly there and that’s probably why the Hawks are talking to a number of teams to just identify what is the best package
Available on the table right now for the jante because that’s what it’s going to come down to it’s not going to come down to the Knicks giving up each and every asset they have to get the jante no it’s about being able to beat out the current
Best offer on the table so if the Lakers have the best offer on the table and the Knicks can beat that and by beating it maybe it means throwing in a couple of more second round picks and if that’s what it takes along with the first round
Picks and a young player and obviously salary matching with Evan forier then I think the Knicks are going to do it but if they know internally that Murray does not want to be a Nick if he prefers to be with the Lakers then they’re not going to go ahead and bend over
Backwards to get that deal done they want Murray they’re interested in Murray and they want to trade for Murray but they’re not going to do that if it’s going to cost them a lot of assets or it’s going to hurt them in the long run we know Leon Rose this is how he’s
Operated since he’s become president of the New York Knicks and I doubt that’s going to change anytime soon so the Nicks and Deonte Murray clearly they’re linked clearly the Knicks wanted to add him and clearly the original plans shout out to Michael Scot and Bobby marks the
Knicks wanted to add the jeante Murray right after they traded for ogn and Obi and they did not want to include Emanuel quickly in that deal likely because they wanted to flip IQ Grimes fornier maybe less picks for Deonte Murray and that probably would have got it done so it’s
Going to be very interesting to note and see what the New York Knicks and what Leon R do for the next few weeks up until the trade deadline but I know for one thing as long as Evan forier is still on this roster the Knicks have a
Move to make and they still are going to make a move mark my words on that but what about you guys what do you think about this shocking news that the New York Knicks initially wanted to keep Emanuel quickley out of the OG trade possibly so he could be utilized to get
Deante Murray on this roster right away let me know in the comments Below guys because honestly I would love to hear from you but that’s going to do it for this episode I hope you enjoyed it and if you did go ahead and smash that like button leave a
Comment below and of course guys please subscribe to the channel until next time Nick fans peace
The Knicks continue to search for upgrades in their front court and back court, many option have come to the table as well. But maybe none as strong as Dejounte Murray. Murray has been linked to the New York Knicks even before they made the deal for OG Anunoby. However, according to one NBA Insider, the Knicks had original trade plans after acquiring OG, to get another star right after him. Unfortunately, the Raptors asked for more and the Knicks decided to get the Wing they wanted versus going after a potential star. Troy Mahabir breaks all of this down!

Keep dropping gems bro!
To get Dante Murray you going to have to give up fortunate and Grimes and a couple of first-round pics
The raptors would never made that deal if Grimes wasn't involved in the deal
Sorry, but it's looking like Dejounte Murray is going to the Lakers 😔.
Dogg im taking og, im against murray. Hes got a big ego.
Sorry about that I meant to say the raptors would have never made that trade if quickly was involved in the trade
Entirely too much smoke behind this DJ Murray fire for not to lead only to more smoke at the end of the day. I can’t envision Leon and Co. not getting this deal done. DJ, JB, and Randle is a very formidable trio. OG and DJ is a scary combo on the defensive perimeter. LGK!
Promo sm
Go get DJ. No brainer. DJ is a stud. Those type of young players do not become available to often. But knowing the past history with getting these type of players when available has not been very encouraging with Knicks organization.
The deal should be Evan 2
1st & 2 2nd for Murray or Evan Grimms 2st for Murray and AJ
12 of next 15 games are at home, most important stretch of the season
DeJounte wasn’t able to be traded at the time OG. He became available on January 8th!! No way Toronto wanted Barrett without IQ, total Cap. Sorry
The Knicks played checkers and the raptors played chess, they came off in this deal…not saying that what we got back was bad, but like u said, we could have gotten a lot more for quick for real!!
We about to Whiff on Murray i feel it smfh
Trading for DM makes no sense, it’s like we traded DM when we traded Quickly
My man, why do you and these other bloggers keep pushing for Dejounte Murray. He's not a star player and would essentially be RJ 2.0. We need Spyda Mitchell because of is ability to not just move without the ball, but he can create his own shot! Those are the same issues Dejounte Murray is having playing with Tre Young. You and the rest of these youtube bloggers need to stop vouching for Dejounte Murray. No Dejounte Murray! I want Spyda Mitchell. Sooo……STOP CLAMORING FOR Dejounte Murray… We need to go all in for SPYDA MITCHELL!
I appreciate your videos and don’t care what you or anyone think about my comments but I will say your desire for the Knicks to trade for Murray is extremely misplaced. He’s a piece on a good team and in that we agree but he’s a marginal piece that doesn’t deserve his own accolades from years ago when he was leading a bad team. There is such a thing as empty stats and this guy personifies this theory. He’s yet to help improve either of his teams. Period. And he’s massively overpaid. I’d personally pay Randle 40 million a year before I’d pay this dude 20.
Raptors can still trade siakam shroder Trent boucher Grady and quickley if needed for Murray plus picks
It looks like they wanted a player that fits more than a “Superstar”. Either or if they get Murray I think the move will be solid. If they get Murray it will take more, but that is the team for the future, but if they go for a bench presence instead then I bet we’ll see a huge move coming in the offseason.
Dejounte is that guy come on over and try to win it in NY – shout out Murray – real recognize real
Bro throw an Intro song already
I said it for 2 weeeks. Knicks could’ve gotten in a single deal Murray and OG m. Hawks would’ve gotten Siakom and Grimes… Toronto could’ve gotten RJ IQ EF cap filler and 4-5 picks!!
Murray couldn't be moved until January 9th
I hope knicks go after murray. End of the day he is still a value asset to flip if need be
Forget Murray, go for broke and get Devin booker
I like DJ Murray a lot – and see how he has overlap with Brunson – but I am still unclear that Brunson and Murray make sense starting together .
What i think is that you're doing a great job covering the Knicks. I enjoy your channel. Thank you for sharing the news and your insight on my favorite team. Keep on doing a great brother, God bless and LETS GO KNICKS!!!
