Today’s Nick now episode is presented by eight sleep go to 8sleep.com chatsports and get $200 off and free shipping if you’re trying to improve your nightly sleep we’ll tell you more about them later on in today’s video but let’s get into it as former Nicks general manager Scott Perry believes
That Alec Burks would be an ideal trade Target for the New York Knicks as we know Alec Burks is a former Nick former Nick of the fourth quarter Alec Burks is a bucket getter and he would absolutely make this team better but the question is how much does he move the needle
That’s what we’re going to dissect on today’s show but this is why Scott Perry believes that Burks is a good trade Target quote I would be focused on trying to find somebody to fill that role coming off the bench someone who can score capable get 20 points if
Needed also not sacrifice the Integrity of your game defensively the name that stands out most to me obviously is Alec Burks because he’s been there in the locker room the players know him he would seem to be more of a seamless fit Burks he can do that he can create his
Own shot doesn’t cost as much and he’s played for head coach Tom Tibido already Burks knows the system again when you make trades in the middle of the Season you’re not only taking on a player statistics and his abilities but you take it on to personality to me if you
Have a known quality uh if you have a known quantity that you could get back in your locker room that will be the ideal thing to do if Alec Burks is in fact available he will be someone that I think would fit seamlessly in what the
Knicks are trying to do right now and I agree with a lot of what Scott Perry said he is one of the best basketball Minds in the NBA there was a reason he was a key piece in assembling that 200 for Pistons team there’s a reason he was
Able to be the general manager of the Knicks and get them back on track to where they are today but I’m trying to win the whole damn thing that’s how good I think the Knicks are right now I’m trying to get to the Eastern Conference Finals does Alec Burks help the Knicks
Do that this year he’s averaging 12 points per game on 39% from the floor but as of late he has been on fire in the last 15 games that Burks has played for Detroit he’s getting 24.9 minutes per night and he is on fire 45% from the
Field over 46% from downtown the guy’s almost giving you 20 points a night we know that bur dating back to his college days is a bucket he can get you in the mid-range he’s a good catch and shoot guy he’s just not a point guard and
That’s what Tom Tibido had him playing a lot look it makes a lot of sense like Alec Burks to the Knicks at the trade deadline makes a lot of sense for a lot of the reasons and all of the reasons that Scott Perry mentioned he knows tips
He knows the system he knows some of the guys in the locker room not really the same team that the Knicks were so yeah I think it makes some sense and look he had some good years with the Knicks 130 games played in his New York
Nick career he was really good in that Series against the Atlanta Hawks where they lost in five I remember the Alec Burke Burks game like it was yesterday how many times in the fourth quarter did Burks go nuclear we’ve seen that and I still think he’s got that in his bag but
Does he make the Knicks Eastern Conference Finals or NBA championship contenders one could say yes CU you’re getting a guy that can score 18 points Off the Bench I want to hear from you do you want the Knicks to trade for Al Burks is he the guy you want to go get
At the NBA trade deadline type te for trade type te for pass for me um it’s a little bit tricky it’s a little bit tricky uh Alec burk’s contract makes this trade kind of tough it really really does he has an expiring $10.4 million deal I’ll tell you why that may
Be hard for the Knicks to trade for coming up around around the corner but first I got to give a huge shout out to today’s sponsor eight sleep guys eight sleep is awesome the high-tech solution to your age-old sleeping issues eight sleeps pod three cover slips right over your mattress bringing Heating and

Comments and description of today’s show one of the things that I could see holding up in Alec Burke’s trade for the New York Knicks is his contract comes in at $10.4 million and as we know here on this channel if you don’t and a trade in
The NBA you have to match salary or you have to get very very close unless one of the teams the team accepting more salary is under the salary cap and right now that is not the case with the Detroit Pistons the Knicks would probably need to get to about $95
Million uh to make a burk’s trade work so let’s look at the players that the Knicks could trade because they’re not trading Brunson they’re not trading Randall they can’t trade Hart I doubt they trade divon chenzo so you got guys like Evan forier are they trading Mitchell Robinson for Alec Burks hell no
Isaiah hardenstein no Quinton Grimes no Jericho Sims sure so the only guys I’m willing to trade are Evan forier and Jericho Sims and I’m not great at math but $18 million is way more than 10 and 1.9 is not nearly enough so the ni we have to take back another player from
The Detroit Pistons what about this trade idea that my guy Patrick seatman cooked up for the real ones what about Alec Burks and Marcus SA the rookie guard out of Houston come to New York while the Knicks give up Evan forier in a 2024 first round pick via
The Detroit Pistons so we will take send them back their pick we’ll send them back their pick um it’s top 18 protected it could be valuable down the line as maybe they uh maybe start to win some games I don’t know but as a first round pick enough to
Get Burks and Sasser would you make this trade type A for accept type D for the CL you get fourth quarter Burks and a young electric guard in Marcus Sasser in Madison Square Garden and all you have to do is forfeit one of those protected first round picks the one that actually
Comes from the Detroit Pistons let me know would you do this deal a for accept B for decline for me the only way I would accept this deal is if it is 3:59 p.m. on trade deadline day and there’s one minute to go and this is the only
Deal on the table and look getting Alec Burks is nice but that’s not the prize you’re getting in this trade sure Alec Burks will give you more right now than what Marcus Sasser would give you right now I actually don’t necessarily think Sasser would be in the rotation all that
Much this year but he’s been pretty decent uh pretty good uh to say it fairly to the Detroit Pistons I remember when the Knicks played him a couple of weeks ago he played pretty good I am a huge huge Marcus Sasser guy I wanted the Knicks to Draft Marcus Sasser in the NBA
Draft why because I saw it the the time that the Knicks were going to trade Emanuel quickly Marshall Green on Twitter not sure who he is but on June 15th of 2023 he said if the Knicks decide to trade emanu quickly in a package for a star they should try to
Sneak in in the early second round and take Marcus Sasser that Marshall green guy he might know what he’s talking about said that back in June H wonder where wonder what he does for a living Marcus Sasser is an off brand of manual quickly he really really is man the dude
Is a bucket he is a Hooper he can put you on skates he can yank it back he can knock it down from all three levels he can get to the rim I love that he played at a top college program in Houston coached by one of the best college
Coaches in the game he’s experienced he’s been in big moments and he can be your backup point guard of the future I really do believe that only thing that that Marshall green guy got wrong was that he said the Knicks need to trade up in the early second round he got picked
In the late first round that’s why you give a first- round pick now because you’re pretty much getting a first round pick going forward I still don’t love this trait though like I’m not in love with it like do it now get it done I would do it if it’s one minute before
The deadline it’s the only deal on the table and the reason I don’t love this trade is because there’s other trades that I like out there more and more importantly it comes back to this question does Alec Burks make the New York Knicks an Eastern Conference Finals
Team if you in your heart of hearts believe that Leon Rose then do this deal but I don’t think it does I don’t think that really helps you necessarily beat the Boston Celtics in round two or beat the Milwaukee Bucks in round two I think it helps I don’t think it
Gets you over the top my quick five I’m going to power rank the trade targets to CL Today Show number one is De jonte Murray for me he’s been there the whole time I’m going to keep him there I believe he makes the next NBA Finals contenders number two Malcolm brogon uh
For a lot of the reasons that I like Murray is also why I like brogon but Brockton would in my opinion come off the bench for the Knicks let Dante D chenz to continue to cook been shooting the piss side of the basketball brogen former six Man of the Year can create
For himself can create for others I think it’d be a great fit and he can play alongside Brunson to be honest with you I’m only really in love with two guys I don’t love Jordan Clarkson I don’t really even like him all that much but I understand what he brings to the
Game and that’s the ability to change the game in a couple of minutes with his I would just say overall Talent of putting the ball in the basket the guy is a bucket getter but he’s inefficient and he’s a really a high volume guy and I’m not real big on high volume low
Efficient guys but Clarkson could have a or two in the playoffs get you 2530 and maybe that’s what this bench unit needs but I don’t really ever want to see him on the floor alongside Brunson Bruce Brown don’t really love him either uh but he’s a name that’s being talked
About a lot uh the Knicks have Bruce Brown at home his name is Josh Hart I don’t need another Bruce Brown um but the reason I would like this trade is because you’d have him on the books for next year $20 million could use that in
A trade as a salary matcher and then fifth I would have Alec Burks I actually think Burks uh fits better than the Bruce Brown Edition but Burks is a free agent after this year and you wouldn’t be able to use him in a trade going forward uh unless you wait to that
December 15th deadline or six months if it’s an extension uh after that so go get me Murray go get me Brogden or figure something else out Demar D rozan is another guy that I would really love for the New York picks to add who do you
Want them to trade for who do you want them to trade for we are just days away days away for knowing what team’s going to be wearing blue and orange in the playoffs let me know and give me a follow over on social media I’m up in my
Twitter game and I’m starting my Instagram game give me a follow Marshall greenore is the handle on both we’ll see you later let’s go Ni

Get Murray & work out a deal for Spider
P
I think Burks cá be a trade deadline deal if a bigger star is not available
Dude, how is Sexton NOT number 2 on your list? 1. He’s Thib’s guy – a dawg. 2. He can lead the 2nd unit / back up Brunson. 3. His salary ($18M) can be included in a star package. 4. He raises the Knicks’ floor and ceiling. 5. He can likely be had for EF + QG + a first.
A Sexton/OG/Hart/Deuce/iHart second unit would be 🔥🔥🔥
The whole Knicks Detroit trade is trash nobody want Alec Burke and Sasser
P
No way marsh a first round for burks? Lmao!
Brogdon could come off the bench and replace Brunson and not miss a beat.
Give it a rest with the trade talk already smh
Let's go to war with the team that's 11 and 2 in 2024 at this rate this would have been a 1st place team If this was the roster from the start of the season so why are we so scared it's like we been hurt so much we can't believe we are capable of competing as is
Who cares what Perry thinks? I agree with him on Burks , but it really only matters what Leon Rose thinks and does.
Jalen Green‼️
Spend that cash 💰
1. Murray 2. Brogdan 3. Sexton. 4 burks 5 clarkson
Burks/Wiseman for Fournier and a pick works as well!!! Both contracts expire at the end of the season.
Would love them to package Randle/fournier and picks for a big time stud. Randle isn’t the guy
'A'
Cam Thomas
The only time we should make a trade is if Randle doesn’t show up in the playoffs again. Otherwise It would be asinine to not see how far this team can go.
Accept
Trade
When has Burks proved that he can contribute to winning in the playoffs? Absolutely never.. I'll take my chances with Mcbride and Grimes over that ball hog traffic cone.
Burks thinks he is better than he is, if we get him he needs to be glued to the second team. He is also a free agent after this season so we lose that valuable Fornier contract that we need in order to trade for a big fish.
Just run it with the guys we have!!!! No need to mess it up
I would do this deal and then go get Murray I will give the hawks 2 first round picks and grimes I think this tree Cellus get us to the finals
Who are we giving up? Is it Grimes. Dont they kind of have the same skill set?
Bench: McBride Burks J Hart Harte stein(when Robinson comes back) Precious back up for Randle. NYKs will do fine. No need to rush giving up draft capital for Dj who could turn into a dud or Malcolm Brogdon who cost 22m a year or a Jordan Clarkson who is 31 years old and NYks gotta give up at least 1 st round. Save the draft picks and grow the talent from within. IQ, Barret, Obi, McBride, Grimes and Robinson are home grown talent that turn out fine for NYKs to use for getting that star in OG and possibly another that will make the NYKs relevant. Other teams in NBA developed talent within. Just NYKs is larger market and demand is there to get that star which creates the pressure. Not necessary. Be patient
Hold one 1 sec was Scott Perry ever a winning GM not that I remember he didn't win @ a high level but I do think this is a low risk trade that can help a lot off the bench
His value at around 10M is good. He’s not much of a commitment
yall going live today
A
Absolutely not, I don't want Alex Burks anywhere near our Knicks. We need a PG, which he is not, he plays no defense & he doesn't pass the ball. We need Brogdon!
HE DOESN'T MOVE THE NEEDLE AT ALL IF THE KNICKS CAN GET HIM FOR HARDLEY NOTHING I AM WITH IT
P
I like the players but i dont like trading a 1st for guys that wont move the needle. no way unless we trade a second
I dont like the trade. I like Burks but getting another player back that we wont use doesn’t make sense to me. For Fournier’s contract I want a player that would be closer to a all star.
No watch party? 😑
When knicks used burks @ point guard it was lack luster during that post 1st playoff run.
