Losing Donte is gonna hurt them a lot in the offense for sure
Our bench now š¢
Garcia Linda Perez Larry Gonzalez John
I thought the title said āKAT trade DERAILED and my heart almost stoppedāš
The team looks good in paper… Let's see how it translates during the season. Chemistry is a plus…
Of Course that( Divencenzo complaining about a reduced role ), played a part in the decision to trade him.
This Trade Wonāt Matter; My Boston Celtics are Going to Destroy The New York Knicks.
I Hear the NBA had to give the KNICKS a Waiver that will allow them to Have No Non-Minority Players on their Team before Trading DiVincenzo.
K. A .T AND THE KNICKS IN THE HOUSEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
Thank you ian
Pretty obvious about the motivations for this trade.
Minnesota
Naz Reid is the future, not Carl Towns
Carl Towns contract made it a flat out salary dump
The real target of the trade was DeVincenzo
Randle was taken to even out the money and he is not in the Wolves plans
Knicks
Randle was no longer a fit in New York – addition by subtraction
Towns is a great fit in New York and turns the Knicks into a serious title contender. He is an elite offensive player and the Knicks have a ton of defensive studs to cover up Towns deficiencies similar to the Wolves – Anunoby, Bridges, Hart and Robinson. And, altho' Tibbs couldn't turn a sow's ear into a silk purse defensively with Towns their first time around, it can only get better this time.
Losing DeVincenzo is a loss in New York, but he was looking at drastically reduced playing time when the Knicks acquired Bridges. Also, with Towns and his 40% three point shooting added to Anunoby and Bridges being excellent three and D players, DeVincenzo won't be missed in New York.
