Knicks Ability To Trade For A Star | New York Got Game
You know there’s a lot of talk about trading for a star and all that do you think that tibs maybe is taking this current roster as far as it can go but if he there was an influx of talent if there was a 1A kind of player which has
Been topic around the Knicks this past week if there was a 1A kind of player here with Jaylen Brunson is tibs a guy that you think could take with better Talent take them even further or do or is it more of a I kind of need to wait and see a little more
It’s a tough it’s a tough it’s a tough question I know it’s a tough question because I think with his current roster it’s about as far as he could take them because even this season more than likely the Celtics and Bucks are going to be one and two so even if the Knicks
Get by the first round they have to face either one of those teams and so far this season Knicks have shown that they cannot beat either team they’ve fallen short and I think right now the Knicks are in a place where it’s like they’re a middling team almost where it’s like
They could beat the average team they could even beat some of the good teams but like the Great teams in the league they’re struggling against and with this current and with the way the Rost is currently set up I cannot see the Knicks going further than than the second round
Now if the Knicks bringing a star right then it’s like okay do you want to stick with thibs and see how far thibs can take you know jayen Brunson Julius R and and a third star on the team or do you just want to go with another coach and
Be like you know what if a if a good coach becomes available do I go with this guy and see if he can bring this team over the top so it’s a hard it’s a hard decision to make it’s it’s really something where it’s like you have to
Really think about it and really look how things turn out and be like okay do you want to stick with dibs or do you want to go in a different direction so this s this sounds to me like Ryan this is a gift you might be hesitant to give
Out in terms of contract okay you’re leaving that one in the in the bag you’re not you’re not giving that gift out just yet exactly all right this next gift I’m going to talk about this one is going to be about timing okay cuz and it goes into what we’re talking about just
Now the Nicks roster at some point they’re going to have to have some changes just just cuz when you look at the finances of the team and the fact that Jaylen Brunson he’s going to secure the bag after next season we all know he’s going to opt out he’s going to get
A big contract do you want the gift of the Knicks trading for a Star to pair with Brunson do you want that gift to happen at the deadline this season or should it happen in the off season come on these are not these were not easy gift questions this not what we
Do up here so here’s the thing currently right now the Nicks are under the first apron so they have some cap space to work with I think right now when I check the Knicks are about 15 16 million under that second April where it’s going to be
Extremely difficult for them to make any type of moves to improve the roster jayen Brunson you have to extend him you have to keep him on this team because he’s a vital part to Nick’s success so when you think about it you’re not going to be able to underpay J jayen Brunson
With the current Contra that he has you’re going to have to pay you know like for example since we’re talking about Christmas on the boond Dos or Ry was R Santa that note he was like Santa pay what you owe you got you got to pay
What you owe Sant you talking to me that’s one of my favorite shows the boom do shout shout out to Aon mcgr uh yeah you got to pay what you go so you know you know that time is coming for Brunson go ahead I’m sorry so looking at it
Looking at it from that perspective this off season has to be the has to be this you know the time when the Knicks actually make that move for that star player because you want to bring that star player in before you extend Brunson because once you extend Brunson the
Nicks are more than likely going to go into that second apron and then from there it’s going to be extremely hard for the Knicks to make any type of moves to improve the roster so if you have a star if you bring in a star that you think can definitely help jayen Brunson
And Julius Randle get over the hump and may turn the into a championship team and then you have that window with all those guys there whether it’s like a three four five year window for them to get over the hump and have that Championship run you have to make that
Move because if you if because if you’re hesitant to make a move and then all of a sudden you’re extending jayen Bruns and you give him the money that he actually deserves it’s going to be tough and then you might end up with a team where it’s like you know the ceiling
Might be second round in the playoffs and can’t go no further
