Woj Gives MAJOR Update – Knicks Making MULTIPLE Trades?



Woj Gives MAJOR Update – Knicks Making MULTIPLE Trades?

According to W the Knicks have the assets to both make a trade at the deadline and make a blockbuster trade this summer so we have to break this down what’s up guys welcome back to Nick digest it’s Chris here and we’re going to jump right into the video as we

Always do so here’s the deal if you ask wge he believes the New York Knicks have the assets to not only make a move during the trade deadline but also then turn around and over the summer or somewhere in the near or far future make a trade for a superstar or star player

Here’s what w had to say he’s very active on Instagram threads and the fan asked what are the Knicks plans for a backup point guard or a secondary point guard what WJ had to say is the Knicks are in good position assetwise to add in that area without having to compromise

Themselves on chasing a big ticket deal in the near or distant future now it’s been pretty ambiguous to when the Knicks are going to try to make a blockbuster trade but also sign sort of point to this summer I mean trading RJ IQ and Obi all within the last eight months seems

To show what the Knicks are focused on and that is contending while the NBA does not have some sort of super team that’s dominating the NBA I mean the nuggets are probably the favorites to repeat but also they’re not as good as they were last year they did lose some

Of their bench the NBA’s fairly open right now the Celtics and the Nuggets being the best teams but the Celtics have their problems the nuggets have their problems no team is perfect there no 201718 Golden State Warriors there’s no LeBron teams it’s it’s open as far as

The MBA ever goes it’s open and the Knicks are pushing for it so here’s the deal the Knicks want to contend to a degree this season though they know they’re probably not winning the NBA Finals that would be very unlikely so really what they’re looking to do is use

That forier contract basically flip it for someone who they could then trade this summer for a star player using that player who they trade for his salary but also they want that player to be some sort of secondary ball handler whether they’re starting whether they’re coming off the bench just someone when

Brunson’s off the court to run the offense control the pace and just not make the Knicks the worst team with an offensive or the worst offensive rating in the NBA when he’s not on the floor because when Bronson is off the floor for the New York Knicks they have the

Worst offensive rating in the NBA at one 4 and then they also have the best offense in NBA history when brunson’s on the floor with 125 point four I think I’m not exactly sure I’m doing that off the dome but both of those things are facts they’re putting Fred cats’s

Article I’m not just pulling them randomly so it kind of begs the question who are the Knicks going to trade for are they going to trade for Deon Murray and my answer is no I don’t think they’re going to if W is saying that I mean again let’s look exactly what w

Said he said they’re in good position as set wise to add in that area without having to compromise themselves on chasing a big ticket deal in the near distant future if they traded for Deonte Murray they’re giving away Quinton Grimes they’re giving away two first rounders they’re probably trading I

Guess Evan for also for salary reasons now that’s compromising your assets that just is we all know it’s true that’s compromising your assets now you only have the six first rounders some of them would be protected and you also don’t have Quinton Grimes to really just

Handcuff to someone in a trade so I think the Knicks are not going to trade for Deon Mario I don’t think they’re out of the of the Deon talks but I think for all intents and purposes it’s fair to say that the Knicks and dejonte Murray

Will not be a match made in heaven and that’s fine if you ask me I don’t think de jante fits with the Knicks anyway so we can kind of move on from that for right now though we will be back talking to jante of course what Fred cat also

Has said in the past that the Knicks are actively Fielding offers for Grimes and that rival Executives who have been in contact with them seem to think that the Knicks are hoping to land facilitating help behind Jaylen Brunson and also if you look here what Catz wrote in his

Article is that with nearly three weeks too in the trade de until the NBA trade deadline the Nick’s priorities are taking shape and the goal is to add someone who could help the team today and also is a contract that would be attractive in a hypothetical trade for a

Star this upcoming summer hopefully a guard um for someone who they would trade for now who they could then flip for a star this summer but acquiring a talented player takes giving up something good too and one name to watch is Grimes because just he’s the best

Young player the Knicks have right now and the Knicks are actively Fielding offers according to rival Executives who have been in contact with the Knicks front office so that really kind of shows right there what’s happening I really don’t think this means anything major at the deadline I think this means

You maybe flip forer’s contract for Terry roier you maybe flip it for Malcolm brogon obviously you handcuff a few second rounders to there maybe even a highly protected first it’s kind of hard to tell but both teams could kind of make some addition by subtraction by letting go of those guys even though

Both of them are good roir is having won a hell of a season but it’s all for nothing the Hornets are horrific they’re not going anywhere they can get some salary off the books and sign someone else in the off season they would open up some money there if they were to

Trade roir also it did come out today that roier if were if he were to be traded would prefer to go to the Miami Heat than anyone else surprise surprise but you know I don’t think he would say no to going to the Knicks a team that is

Going to make the playoffs and will give him a big role probably as the team Sixth Man especially since Josh Hart has completely forgotten how to play basketball in recent months which is really unfortunate for the Knicks for Knicks fans and for Quinton Grimes because Grimes still can’t grasp more

Minutes or get more minutes than Josh Hart does somehow but it is what it is and hopefully tibs will change we know tips doesn’t make changes that’s absolutely ludicrous to believe but also Allan Han was talking about the Knicks at the trade deadline and this is what

He had to say if you want to put money down on who the Knicks get at the deadline Alec Burks is a name to watch it just seems inevitable I’d watch that which is what he said in his radio show and he also made it clear that this is

Not from him knowing any inside information now obviously that get that makes things a little interesting just because when you look at it Alec Burks has been in in the past he’s not exactly a ball handler primarily he’s more of a shooter and can score in some isolation sets he’s not

Really there to SC to pass the ball and facilitate the ball he’s there to score he’s averaging 20 points per game in January so far and 25 minutes per game with the Pistons and it would make sense for the Pistons to trade him they probably could net a first rounder in

Return for Burks he’s just a tremendous role player every team that he’s ever went to has loved him and that does include the Knicks in the Knicks first playoff game since the Melo years uh Burks showed up he had 30 points that game he really bowled out I think the

Dicks would love to have him back Tom Tibido loves him Leon Rose loves him Burks is just loved within the Knicks organization he’s familiar with a lot of the guys here I think he would fit really nicely with the Knicks bench he would give him that isolation scoring

Punch that they so desperately need and once again he is someone who could become a sixth man for the Knick and it would just be nice to have someone who already knows the team well back it would not take any real adjustment period Burks would probably be excited

To play for a team that’s actually contending for something that isn’t the first overall pick in the draft so I would love that move personally I don’t know what they would have to give up I doubt they could get away with giving up anything but like a protected first form

Because Burks is really good like if you look at it he’s one of the best role players in the league he’s a tremendous spot up shooter however his numbers are sort of down so far this season because the Pistons are horrific so it’s kind of impacted his numbers out side of the

Month of January so who really knows maybe they could pull it off but I feel like some team is going to be ready to offer a first for Burks but you have to keep an eye on that we will go more into Alec Burks in the future and this alen Han

Comment but also if you just look right here something else that Fred Catz has mentioned is that the Knicks are targeting an extra ball handler we’ve talked about that and some players who fit the fit the description are Malcolm brogon Jordan Clarkson Colin seon Bogden bogdanovich Terry roier Bruce Brown TJ

McConnell Caris LeVert and former Nick Tim Hardaway Jr now look if you want to see those names get D dove into more go check out darel’s video on it he made a great video talking about it so I’m not really going to go into that much depth

Because it’s already been done on the channel but I will say that look some of those names make more sense than others I think Terry roier is one of them that makes the most sense I don’t really see bogon bonovich making a ton of sense also because the Hawks will

Probably want a lot for him at least in regards to every other player on that list so it really kind of I mean I’m just going to look at it again just from my own mind but just so we could see again Colin SE and Jordan Clarkson seemed difficult because they’re on the

Jazz and Danny a would not let the Knicks get away with much TJ McConnell can’t really create his own shot which kind of is drawback for myself personally kyus Levert is on the Cavs I feel like if the Nicks are going to make a trade with the Cavs you make the

Obviously the obvious one for Donovan Mitchell and then Tim hard junor is playing really good basketball right now at the Dallas Mavericks I think that if Tim Hardaway Jr is to get traded it’s going to be so the Mavericks can make an upgrade and I don’t really think the

Knicks would be giving them Mavericks an upgrade from Tim Hardway Jr which kind of ends that one and ends the chances of a third stint on the Knicks for Timmy but look a lot of things could happen I’m not really sure what but it does feel like one thing is for sure the

Knicks will be making a trade at the trade deadline and I would put money on it involving Evan forier so the Knicks can get a contract that’s not expiring so they don’t have to accept forign team option but just the fact that they would accept for’s team option is another sign

That clearly something’s coming if they don’t make a trade at the deadline but I am pretty certain that Leon’s not done this year they’re going to beef up that bench remember the Knicks are not going for the title this year but they’re also not not going for the title this year

They know that once you make the playoffs anything can really happen the Miami Heat were the fraking eighth seed last year and went to the finals came two games within winning the NBA finals against the Denver Nuggets so you never really can predict the NBA Playoffs you

Don’t know who’s going to get the injury bug who’s going to be healthy who’s going to just go on an unreal shooting tear who’s going to get in a slump it’s all a mystery the playoffs are an entire season basically that’s separate from the NBA in its own little way but look

The Knicks are not done because they want to try to do their best to succeed in the playoffs as much as possible so they can be a more attractive name for other stars and if you want to make sure you know who those stars are subscribe

  1. Leon should go get Sexton and OlyNYK for Fournier, Sims, Dal and Det protected firsts. Sexton and Olynyk would not only solidify the 2nd unit but also be valuable insurance if Brunson misses more time or iHart leaves via free agency. And that Sexton contract has great value. (We need to cut back on the starters minutes, especially iHart’s.)

  2. Guys lets be real Murray fits that standard perfectly we have to stop living in fantasy saying wait wait wait for a star player that “MIGHT” become available in offseason.. Murray can definitely help now and “IF” a superstar player becomes available in offseason which sounds better to teams grimes and picks or Murray a young star player and picks on a affordable contract? Also fit with us hes 6’5 plays Def and can ball handle we keep forgetting that Brunson played with Luka and Brunson also played very well with him and IQ together on the floor Brunson a superstar that can make it work with anyone look what he has done with Randle

  3. We need another scorer coming off the bench. IQ was a unique situation. If we get another point point guard then why pay Mc bride?

  4. I respectfully disagree with losing assets by moving Grimes. If we trade Grimes, we are upgrading and whoever we get also becomes a trade piece.

  5. Murray may be gone by the time we decide to pull the trigger. If we get Burkes then we don't need Grimes. I say NO because we don't need to use a draft pick to get him.

  6. I think you're totally wrong, I think we use Grimes now for Murray then Randle, Achua and Flynn for big ticket player

  7. I say let's get the Guy from Charlotte Bridges. He is definitely a scorer. When Randle disappears during the playoffs he will step up off the bench. Imagine him,Hart,Mc Bride,Precious and whoever….That's nice to me

  8. So sick of “waiting” every summer for the big free agent, and they don’t come. You’re sitting on multiple picks, an asset in grimes and an expiring forny. Get shit done.

  9. Murray trade didnt make sense to me at first but now thinking about it we could really benefit from getting him.

    Not only do we get another scorer and playmaker, but a defender you can throw onto Dame, Maxey, and Haliburton in the playoffs.

    Not to mention OG will have his hands full guarding Tatum, Giannis, and Jimmy. If we face Boston we have no one to guard Jaylen Brown. Hart, Grimes, and Donte are solid defenders but they are not going to make any of those guys struggle.

    It'll cost us Grimes, Fournier, and two protected first which is fair. He's a huge upgrade at the SG spot, and he can run the point when Jalens on the bench or injured. Get him before he gets snatched up.

  10. Why can't this front office just build from the draft like Indiana, Orlando,OKC you have the picks you will hit on some of those picks. Your not going to win a championship with Randall its ridiculous to mortgage your future

  11. How about getting Chris Paul for the rest of the season and maybe another year. might be able to get him cheap.

  12. brogdon to knicks , grimes and foirnier to dallas, holmes hardy + fill with second rounders as you feel right to Portland ( if dallas gave up not much then add 1 or 2 second rounders , same with Knicks)

  13. Knicks should forget about Bruce Brown. The expense of his contract is not worth the production he would give us. I would do the proposed Atlanta combo trade that would include Dejounte Murray. Folks talking about Capela being worse than Mitch. I don't see that. Compare the numbers. Capella scores almost twice that of Mitch. The block shots are about the same, the rebounds about the same, the free throws are way better than Mitch's. The only thing we would have to watch is the health issue, but we have to do that with Mitch also. Plus, If things don't work out with Capela, he'll be gone at the end of the 2025 season. My trade wish would be, Mitch, Evan, Grimes (we must decrease the guard logjam), and two 1st rounders for Dejounte and Capela. We should also pay Hartenstein, and show Precious and Flynn the door. Let's do somethng extreme like Indiana did. Let's not die and get buried with eight 1st round picks.

  14. GRIMES FOURNIER BUCKS PICK DALLAS PICK IS NOT TOO MUCH FOR MURRAY AND WOULD STILL LEAVE US 6 1ST AND RANDLE TO MOVE IN A DEAL FOR A SUPER STAR. I THINK THAT'S A GOOD STARTING POINT

  15. Alec Burks should have been done already!!!! LONGTIME!!!!! Leave McBride alone and let him grow………Qiuck had to grow!!! NONE of the guys he is talking make no sense…..Rozier? No. Brogdon? for the RIGHT price,……Olynyk? NO!!…….Don't like Clarkson, so NO!!!…..Bogdonovic? NO, overrated…….Murray? Cool!!! Just don't give up too damn much!!!! Bruce Brown? IN A HEARTBEAT!!!!! In fact, Alec Burks & Bruce Brown I'd be cool with!!!! But don't want to burry McBride again.

  16. I want demar Derozan as a rental to get a chip,chocago would do a fornier deal for him become they think fornier would fit with them and just gove up a second round pick trade done
