Why Bogdanovic Trade Is GAME CHANGING For New York… | Knicks News

Headed into the NBA trade deadline the New York Knicks had a number of concerns they needed to address with their roster size concerns spacing concerns definitely scoring concerns and they were able to do all of that in one massive trade to get Alec burs and boan

Banovic on this roster not only that in the process they’ve added one of the most lethal three-point Shooters in the entire league in boan I’m going to break down why this trade is a GameChanger for the the New York Knicks how boan helps the Knicks today and once they get to

The postseason all of this and so much more today if you’re not already subscribed to the channel go ahead and hit that subscribe button now and make sure you have notifications turned on so you don’t miss a second of the new content and now let’s get started boan banovic is a game changer

For the New York Knicks the Knicks before this trade needed more scoring Off the Bench they definitely had size concerns and spacing the floor was a legitimate issue because the only player it seems like for the reserve unit that sometimes can buy a bucket is Miles McBride and then with the starting unit

If your name’s not Jaylen Brunson with all the players we have out we can only hope and pray that Dante d vinchenzo goes on another scoring Rampage thankfully he’s been doing that but how often can we rely on him to to do that by himself we need other players in the

Fold who can help and that’s why boan is such a massive move for the New York Knicks it’s a GameChanger here’s why let me break it down for you GameChanger reason number one why boan helps this New York Knicks team according to the New York Post Pete bot he States the

Following the 34 year-old Bach donovic has averaged 21.6 points and 20.2 points over the past two Seasons with the Pistons the two highest outputs of his 10-year NBA career he is a 39.5% career shooter from three-point range including 41.5% the second best figure in his career in 28 games this season game

Changer right there not only does he give you size he’s 67 but he also can shoot like that 41.5 % from the field from three this season in 28 games you could probably round that up to 42% 42% from three that’s what he’s shooting that’s a game changer you guys remember the playoffs

Like I do you guys remember that Heat series like I do against the Miami Heat when we were playing against them the offensive futility that the New York Knicks were showing was on full display for the nation to see it was terrible I guarantee going into another another

Postseason run with boan banovic at 41.5% from three we’re not going to have that issue anymore Game Changer let’s go over to the other reason why he’s a game changer because I uh I think it has to do with efficiency because if one thing I can say about boan he is

Efficient efficiency efficiency efficiency shout out to aop NBA on the app X for giving us the following information boan is one of three players in the league along with KD and lri marinan to be shooting at least 65% at The Rim 40% in the paint 45% in the

Mid-range 40% on Corner threes 40% on above the break Theses and you need a minimum of 30 field goals attempted in each of these zones in order to be registered on this list that’s why he’s so efficient gamechanging reason number two efficiency that’s what boan gives you I can’t remember the last player

That I can think of that when he’s open in the corner it’s near automatic I think I might have to go back to who Steve Novac novakaine that’s probably the last person I can remember that was near automatic if he was open from three boan Bak donovic gives you size and that

Type of shooting game changer let’s go back to the New York Knicks though boan banovic Burks Brunson divin chenzo miles McBride all shooting 40% from three this season most in the NBA you know who helps add to that boan bakd donovic what is he again game

Changer this is what he’s going to help give the New York Knicks either Off the Bench or if he wants to go ahead and start sometimes the depending on injury or illness I’m okay with that too depending on matchup I’m okay with that too he’s not as bad of a Defender as

Evan forier is he’s definitely better than him he used to be better on defense early on in his career right now not as much of a Defender but the Knicks have so many quality Defenders on our roster we can hide them well and honestly we

Just need him to be in the corner to shoot and to help give us more size he gives us all of that do you guys remember when he was playing with the Jaz and he was playing with Rudy goar do you remember how they were playing their

Games together Rudy would find them in the corner or Boon would see he was open and get him the easy bucket inside what happens when Mitchell Robinson comes back does that Dynamic not exist between boan and Mitchell Robinson because if it doesn’t now mark my words as soon as

Mitchell Robinson comes back and those two Gain chemistry together that’s exactly what’s going to happen that’s another threat he’s going to give this Nick team to make them better come to postseason Game Changer but don’t take my word for it maybe I’m just talking

Too much as a Nick fan let’s go to Irvin Magic Johnson somebody who has no affiliation with the New York Knicks and is a pro Laker guy said the following when the Knicks acquired boan banovic averaging 20.2 points per game and 41.5% from three-point range and Alec

Burks averaging 12 .7 points per game and 40.1% from three-point range this season I think they have a real shot of not only playing in the Eastern Conference Finals but the NBA Finals why would a champion why would a pro Laker why would a guy like Magic

Johnson who has nothing to gain at all from making any of these comments about the New York Knicks their roster or their upgrades why would he come out and say just by this ition with all of the pieces the New York Knicks already had that this potentially would make the New

York Knicks a team to watch come the NBA Finals why would he say that because this move is a game changer boan bakd donovic gives this Knicks team a consistent knockdown three-point scorer somebody you can’t leave defenses cannot leave him alone you have to keep a

Defender on him and if he’s hot you might have to put two Defenders on him you know what that creates you know what happens in that situation the paint is more wide open for your drivers like Julius Randle like Jaylen Brunson to an extent like Dante de vinchenzo like Josh

Hart everybody gets better because boan is on the floor he’s in the corner or he’s somewhere on the court he’s the person on the court you’re going to have to watch because if you leave him open or even give him just a little bit of space he’s going to make you pay he’s

Going to hit the three and he’s going to help the Knicks go up big and that’s why it’s a game changer pair that with the fact that they have Jaylen Brunson and they have Dante de vinchenzo two other snipers from three two other players you can’t leave from three and if you do

They can penetrate and create in the paint especially Jaylen Brunson with that magical footwork my goodness man the New York Nicks are dangerous I cannot believe they were able to make such upgrades to their roster make such impactful upgrades to their roster without having to give up a first

Round pick setting themselves up for even bigger moves come this off season this Nicks regime has done something that no other regime in the past at least for my years of watching this team has ever done they’ve created a contender with the New York Knicks while keeping all of their first round picks

We have all of these assets still available and we’re a contender today I don’t remember the last time I could ever say that about a New York mixed team shout out to Leon Rose shout out to this front office and shout out to this Nicks Organization for giving us a team

That we can believe in and a team that absolutely is going to be a threat for the Eastern Conference Finals and if they get there they could potentially be a threat as Magic Johnson stated for the NBA Finals game changer man no other way to put it no other way to describe it

You can try to put it in other words but even if you do that it all circles right around and goes back to the fact that the New York Knicks made a game-changing trade a massive trade they added exactly what they needed and boan helps this team today and especially once they get

To the postseason his numbers again for the season 20.2 points 42% from three he averages at least two point .5 threes a game and he’s one of 13 players to average 20 points per game on 40% three-point shooting but you know what gets me more excited when our head coach

Is even more excited about this addition about these guys being on the roster and what they could mean to the lineup and the roster moving forward let’s take a look at what head coach Tom thibo had to say about this addition to the New York Knicks roster and boan bakd donovic

According to thibs bakd donovic a ability to play power forward it gives us a stretch four who can really shoot Alec his ability to handle the ball play the point guard position play off ball play with the starters play with the bench sort of a Swiss army knife he does

A little bit of everything but the shooting piece was so important I just think the more we can open up the floor particularly as you go forward that’s the key ingredient Now teams have to make a decision on how much you’re going to load up on Brunson

Shout out to Tom thibo he stated basically exactly what I did at the top of the show when you have a guy like boan bakd donovic on that floor in the corner wherever he is he’s going to pull a couple of Defenders to him and that’s going to make the defense think to

Themselves do I go after Brunson or a couple of these other Shooters and players the New York Knicks have and leave boan or do I stick with them and see what the New York Knicks can do that’s exactly the choice now Defenders are going to have to have and make

Because boan is not somebody you want to leave he is near automatic from three if you leave him open in the corner you don’t want to do that if you’re the opposing team so the New York Knicks have now created a very big problem for

Other teams and it’s not up to us to solve it it’s up to the opposing team to solve it and however they choose to do so the New York Knicks are going to respond accordingly you want to throw a couple of Defenders boan way Jaylen Brunson Dante de vinchenzo Julius

Randall when he’s back they’re going to kill you you want to throw the Defenders at Jaylen Brunson okay Dante de vinchenzo boan Alec Burks they’re going to kill you either way you can’t escape you cannot Escape The Barrage of three-pointers coming your way depending who’s on the floor Burks can shoot it

McBride can shoot it Brunson can shoot it Dante can shoot it and yes of course boan bachd donovic can absolutely shoot it 42% for the season I don’t know what other teams are going to do but for me I’m going to continue to smile and hope and pray this

Team gets healthy fast because this Knicks team when healthy is gon to run through the entire league nobody stopping us we are here New York is back the Knicks are back I’m hype I can’t wait for the postseason to see what this Knicks team can do because I think

They’re going to make a very deep run but what about you guys do you agree with me do you think that this trade for the New York Knicks is a GameChanger especially when you consider that they have boan bakd donovic on the roster 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 New York Knicks made the right moves at the trade deadline, adding two more elite role players to a completive Knicks roster that has gotten even better. Largely in part to Bojan Bogdanovic now being part of this roster. Playing for the Pistons the last few season, he may have become an afterthought in today’s NBA. But I assure you, this addition by the Knicks changes things for them in a major way. The addition of Bojan is not only blockbuster, it’s absolutely game changing… Troy Mahabir breaks all of this down!

  1. With a FULL HEALTHY team we can beat ANY team this post season! Won’t doubt or be surprised if Knicks make the finals

  2. With the injuries to OG Randle and Mitch and depending on when they return, I think Bojan, Precious & ihart will be the starters maybe 1st round with OG, Randle and Mitch coming off bench.

    Brunson and Donte seem like the new splash bro backcourt so add Bojan 3pt spacing and Precious/iHart grabbing offensive boards, Knicks should be averaging 120+ ppg come playoffs.

  3. Great content, brother.
    Change out Grimes from screen.
    It's looking outdated, stay fresh, my man.

  4. Not a Bojan fan generally as he is old and not a defender. As for “efficiency” his PER (Player Efficiency Rating) is not high at 13.9–that’s about 110th in the league. He has a BPM of -2.2 because of poor defense and a VORP of 0. He’s a replacement level player basically.

    However—this is the one instance where we actually needed this: they have like 7 people who could play before the trade that are not injured. They traded a player with a sprained ankle who can’t play right now (grimes) for two people who can.

    Of the players I like Burks better. Big size at guard and he can play even after the starters get healthy as a valuable backup.

  5. We have a chance to run our own version of a “death lineup.”

    C- Randle
    PF- Bojan
    SF- OG
    SG- DVO
    PG- JB

    Imagine Randle in isolation with those shooters on the 3 point line. Teams would either have a player strong and fast enough to stop him by himself or they double and eat threes.

    Our defense/rebounding would take a hit but that lineup is going to score on ANYBODY. 💯💪🏾✊🏾 #GOknicks

  6. This is all fine and dandy and I have nothing but excitement for my Knicks, but all of this means nothing if they can't get and stay healthy which they've shown this year they are not able to accomplish. I'm very concerned that with all these injuries they're going to plummet in the standings. All these injuries they have to key players is going to start to rear its ugly head in regards to their record and seeding.

  7. 💥💥Although, Quickley will Be missed.. I love this trade.. As we got Better on the Bench & Starting line up 💥💥

  8. Troy is amped lol so was Bog a starter for Detroit? If so hoping he embraces a bench role those numbers hes gonna need looks though

  9. That really pisses me off that they went and got Alex Burks a complete waste of money. They could’ve got somebody so much better.

  10. Is it possible that for once that we actually fleeced another team instead of us getting it? ha

  11. I think this team is a deep playoff team. Maybe enough to go to the finals. But they are going to have to have everybody back soon enough or they're all on the same. Just because OG fit seamlessly doesn't mean that will always be the case. So they're going to have to get some games under their belt healthy. Hopefully because these guys are veterans and Burks has been here before they can make that transition smooth. But we ain't winning squat without a healthy Randle. Period!

  12. Leon has put together a team that just fits.
    Once healthy, we will be a well-balanced machine.
    No doubling of JB/JR without teams having to pay dearly.
