Ian Begley on Mikal Bridges praising OG Anunoby, Knicks interest in trading for Walker Kessler | SNY
one of the first Nicks that male Bridges said by name here at his introductory press conference on Tuesday wasn’t Jaylen Brunson it wasn’t Josh Hart but it was OG anobi Bridges said he’s long been a fan of anobi and they’ve admired each other’s games based on what each has done for their successive teams obviously both three and D players and he was really excited to play with an anobi and if this era is going to work for the Knicks the anobi bridges Villanova Knicks era it’s going to be based on the success defensively with Bridges and n and Obi together I don’t think there’s another defensive Wing tandem in the NBA that can match up with those two uh great Wings spans great switch Defenders can defend multiple positions so I think that’s where it starts for this Nick team everybody seemed very happy at this introductory press conference as you could imagine Bridges was happy Leon Rose was there other Nick staffers were there some of Mel’s family members were there everybody in a real joyous mood and I’m sure Nick fans are feeling the same way after they get bridges in the building across the East River in that trade with the Nets another quick update here on the backup big man situation I mentioned on Monday that Utah had been asking for at least one first round pick in previous discussions with teams on Walker Kessler Nicks had shown some had had some interest in Kesler I was told sub subsequently that teams had offered two first rounders to Utah in the past couple weeks and were rebuffed obviously we don’t know the value of the first rounders not all firsts are created equal there’s protections on these picks but that gives you a little idea on how the Jazz value Kesler and what it would take to pry him out of Utah

Get Kessler already. Hurry up!
I've never been so relaxed during a Knicks offseason
Nobody wants to deal with Danny Ainge anymore. Knicks should go in another direction.
I think Knicks should resign Achiuwa as a back up C. He played that role with small lineups pretty well behind IHart.
Man they need to get Kessler already … SMH
Great trade but we need more players, more depth. Thibs will run his players to the ground and then come playoff time, they're hurt. We need more depth and he needs to be willing to better distribute their minutes.
They wouldn't let Ian set up inside that building? It looks toasty outside
For some reason Ainge doesn't like to play ball with the Knicks,he sabotaged the Mitchell trade a couple of years back SMH
Leon rose and James Dolan should absolutely trade for walker tonight.
please knicks no more trades…
Do not trade Julius Randle!
Need a back up center!
Ian filming out in that heat wave. That’s commitment! Give that man a raise. I’m a/c to a/c.
I knew it. Ainge is not giving up Kessler unless he gets a haul and the Knicks already did that to get Bridges.
If Tibbs so good @ development y cant he ascend Jericho Sims hes super athletic, strong, young & cheap i wanna us to involve him more 💯
