WE JUST FINESSED THE KNICKS…



WE JUST FINESSED THE KNICKS…

The Toronto Raptors just made a blockbuster trade with the New York Knicks and this is absolutely insane because looking at this package looking at the Players we got back it looks like we just finessed the New York Knicks theou Jerry’s back it took a couple years it took two years worth of rumors

Two years of us getting bombarded with 10 different teams across the NBA for a blockbuster trade a major shakeup to happen for this Toronto Raptors group and you know what despite the fact we were in the worst possible position to really negotiate the worst possible

State to make a move to make a trade happen messou Jerry cooked up some 2018 2019 magic and decided to get us an absolute monster of a package for OG and anobi so we’re going to break down everything that sort of just went down because this is ridiculous basically we

Had a couple woge bombs come out I thought I was getting parody to count I thought it was some fake news but first I’ll break the Shams report out basically saying the Raptors are trading OG an anobi to the New York Knicks and you hear that and you say uhoh this is

Bad we’re getting Evan forier back and maybe a couple draft picks you know what the heck’s going on here and then the wge bomb comes out revealing that the Toronto Raptors are finalizing a trade to send OG and anobi to the New York Knicks for a package including not

Everything including RJ Barrett Emanuel quickly and draft consideration so we’re not sure what the draft picks are I’ll do a more detailed breakdown on this trade later today oror whatever the heck these videos are going to be coming out but holy smokes this package is a thousand times better than everything

Else we’ve been seeing all the rumor deals I mean we were here and we wouldn’t even be able to get Andrew namart from the Indiana Pacers and now we’re getting his team Canada teammate RJ Barrett we’re getting a HomeTown hero a young prospect that I know he only

Goes left all that type of stuff I don’t care I don’t care I played against RJ Barrett at Nationals C this dude has been one of my favorite players in the entire NBA to see him on a division rival hurt my soul and now he’s a Toronto Raptor he’s young he fits the

Barnes timeline the shooting fits can question we’ll talk about all that we’ll get more realistic breakdowns and stuff but basically RJ Barrett he’s only 20 3 years old he’s 23 years old he’s locked up under contract for the next few seasons right OG an anobi I feel like I

I’m disrespecting OG because I haven’t thanked him but this is just literally happened minutes ago OG is also one of my favorite basketball players one of my favorite Toronto Raptors I got his jersey hanging up you know the OG’s you know this this made me say OG’s and it

Hurts to see him go but frankly he was an unrestricted free agent this off season there’s no ifs answer you know he’s wanted a bigger role he signed with CA which are basically the agency that runs the New York Knicks he was going to leave this off season Messi Jerry loved

Him they wanted to keep him and all that type of stuff and it the writing was kind of on the wall that that was sort of what all the rumors and everything was shaking up so the fact that Messi you Jerry didn’t have a delusion which

The rewards were kind of say it might potentially happen but the fact that Messi Jerry wasn’t delusional enough to think we should go into this offseason and pay OG hobi $40 million is a major win for this Toronto Raptors team and again no disrespect to ogan anobi hit

One of the greatest shots in Raptor history probably the second greatest shot in Toronto Raptor history in that Celtic series a legend an absolute pleasure to root forward and to cheer for but holy smokes RJ Barrett coming back home and then the player that I feel like Raptors fans don’t really

Realize how good he is is a manual qu quickly because quickly is a guy frankly I didn’t really realize he was a guy that was potentially in the Sixth Man of the Year running last last season and all that type of stuff but again we see

Him four times a year all that it’s not until we start launch Nick’s dig just we’ll probably get Chris or Dariel on this channel too to break down what we’re getting in this type of package but Emanuel quickley has been a absolute baller for the New York Knicks over the

Past couple years and the only reason he’s getting dealt is because they couldn’t agree on a contract extension and quickly is a piece that he’s fast he can shoot he can facilitate he’s just he’s a guy that’s stepping his way into a player that should be an all allar maybe not

All-Star just yet but starting point guard in this league and basically if you look at Emanuel quickly again only 24 years old as well averaging 15 points three rebounds 2.5 assists 40% from the three-point line all behind Jaylen Brunson so now we’ve taken this team this core Toronto Raptors group we’ve

Built it so that it fits alongside Scotty Burns age and timeline a heck of a lot better players that probably be a little bit cheaper free agency on the contracts and all that type of stuff and they’re two-way guys they Playa defense our guard rotation right now with Dennis

Schruder with Gary Trent Jr frankly was not off to SC and now we have two starting caliber players that don’t play this cuz another part of away OG anobi and you know it sucks it hurts all that type of stuff but frankly Pascal cakam Scotty Burns and OG anobi all played the

Same position you know 3 four hybrid 3 four you can play him at two of those spots and you know we’re moving one to the shooting guard and all that type of stuff both quickley and RJ Barrett can create their own shots they can do that

A heck of a lot better than OG an anobi and OG yes is a much better on ball Defender that is true that is facts you can’t sort of dispute that whatever but both of those guys are strong Elite Defenders at the guard positions right

So you look at that and you say okay we’re getting younger so we fit around the Scotty Barnes timeline better we don’t put oursel in a position where our top guys are all entering unrestricted free agency this off season and then it just fits it just makes sense we’re

Getting a HomeTown Canadian hero forget all that because the basketball player are J Barrett is the type of guy that we sort of need the Raptors offense it gets stagnant it gets lethargic and stuff and both quickly and RJ Barrett can create their own shots can create their own

Buckets and for all the stress that we’ve seen about losing our draft piic we don’t even know the draft compensation we’re getting from the New York Knicks but frankly they have like three first round picks for this season I wouldn’t be surprised if there’s a few first sprinkled into this deal that’s

Happening here right now I don’t know this is absolutely bananas it is is something that has me again I went on a tie raid last night following that loss to Boston Celtics and it wasn’t because you know the team played bad or anything like that but the hopium that has been

Injected into this me from this Raptor team for the past year and a half really it just it’s getting it it’s getting to the point where Raptor fans we need a proper shake up we need not just a little bit of hoping we need something to really root for something to get

Pumped up something to get excited about and this trade this move from messou Jerry is a major massive W for this roster so everyone that’s been calling out to messiou Jerry hey fire the guy get rid of him can him and all that type of stuff you know I get why people were

Frustrated I get why people were sort of in you know mad about everything that was going on you know with all the rumors all the packages and the Raptors not living up to stuff but he just traded a guy that’s about to get paid 40 plus million in free agency this season

Is a three and D role player as unrestricted free agent all that type of stuff for two potential youngstar players and draft Capital that you have control over Quickly’s contract he’s a guy I didn’t bring it up yet in the he is a free agent this off season however

He enters restricted free agency so we can match any type of deal unlike OG and anobi so holy smokes give a shout out to Messi he did something it wasn’t just smoke it wasn’t just rumors he saw the writing on the wall and you know what I

Am pumped up for this season right now I am Juiced I am I am absolutely on fire right now with this deal that sort of went down we’re going to give a deeper breakdown in terms of this package who we’re getting back in these deals and everything along those lines you know

Once everything sort of comes out might even go who knows what’s going to happen here now at this point but I am pumped I am rejuvenated for this season RJ Barrett is a Toronto Emanuel quickley is a Toronto Raptor let’s go let’s run this with the Toronto Raptors and let’s make

  1. Love OG a lot, but being realistic this was a great trade. OG is going to command more money than he's likely worth in the off-season.

  2. Yo your energy on this video about the trade got me excited and yes us fans will miss OG but this trade just made sense for both teams

  3. Ben! After Barnes & Pascal, who is starting? See I've been telling you guys on the internet for months, split the egg you get two guys for one. Now we have all types of guys who can start.

  4. YOUR ENTHUSIASM FOR THE TEAM KEEPS ME GOING BEN. The way you come out so hot on the top is the energy I need going into this Detroit game tonight.

  5. Lmfao RJ is the worst contract in basketball 27mil per he's shooting 25% from 3 for the past 20 games on 37% from the field & IQ is on a expiring contract OG is one of the best glue players in the NBA OG will sign with the knicks & they got his bird rights OG will sign with NY for 30mil per RJ & IQ both were horrible in there 2 yrs in the playoffs no clutch in them 2 OG has proven he can hit big shots in the most important of moments TBH Toronto got fleeced!!!!!

  6. A video from another channel says the 2nd round pick is coming from Detroit in this upcoming draft. So it is almost like a first round pick. Makes this trade even better.

  7. Good luck playing a role player 25 mil 😭😭😭 IQ is solid but he’s gonna want at least 20 mil a year next season. So in reality the Knicks won the trade. Precious achuwa will step right in Robinson’s place and Malachi flynn is still young and has room for development not to mention getting OG who’s one of the best defenders in the league and more effective than RJ!! Win win for both teams imo

  8. As a knicks fan, We dont care about losing RJ barret,,, We care about losing IQ, i dont think alot of Raptors fan realize how much of an absolute BALLER Quickley is, if IQ starts he can drop 30 any given night, we are Devastated

  9. Am i the only one thats feeling meh about this trade… if we can move pascal for a better/younger center ill be a little more excited
