Of our franchise channel members busy day we trying to catch up West Coast jet lag wearing all foul was bagging up merch I was bagging up merch last night back back to square one man how you feeling man I’m good man yeah yeah I see I see there’s some merch that’s uh on

The shop you know I want to get some as well yeah I’m looking at that shirt I’m like hey that’s a nice shirt yours is on the way your yours is on the way man Christmas was over a month ago but it is still Christmas here at Nick fan TV man

So yours is on the way and I’m going to show the people some some more of the merch that we have in the merch store I got some uh next to me that I want to show the people but anyway back to business man our guy Fred cats of the

Athletic just on to time breaks the seal on an article which talks about uh the Knicks trade deadline goals and the idea according to Fred is that the team is looking to add someone who could help the team today and also has a contract that could be attractive in a particular

Trade for a star in the summer but acquiring a talented player gives uh takes giving up something good so another goal as he said the team is looking for extra shock creation we saw it last night when they got exposed by the Orlando Magic no Brunson IQ and RJ

Are gone you you’ve lost a lot of Firepower and playmaking ability shot creating ability in your lineup the Knicks need help there and from According to Fred Katz one name to watch is Quinton Grimes he says the Knicks are actively Fielding offers for the former first round pick according to rival

Executives who have been in contact with the Knicks front office the approach signals a change from only a year or two ago when the Knicks held on to Grimes in the Donovan Mitchell talks but with the arrival of Dante dant chenzo The Big Ragu Grimes Hive could be packing their

Bags man what say you bro that’s tough it’s tough to it’s tough to see that and you know there’s you know I’ve had a lot of optimism about Quinton Grimes on this team but you can just see from the way that the season started him expressing

The difficulties of being able to be to get in Rhythm when you’re not involved in the offense and understandably so when you had guys like RJ Randall and Brunson in the starting rotation that all those guys demand 20 touches per game and then you talk about quickly who

Needs to get his 15 to 20 touches per game as well yeah it’s going to be tough to put up four to eight shots and try it again into Rhythm but it’s been up and down even after the rotation change even after RJ and quickly getting traded you

Just see that Grimes has yet to really be involved I mean look against Memphis last night he was barely involved and we’re shorthanded yeah and you see even with Tom tibo’s Reliance on Josh Hart in some situations you just see the constant just pushing of Quinton Grimes further further down

The depth chart to the bench so it’s it’s not surprising that the Knicks are open to moving Grimes and to be honest if we’re just reading the room after you saw the OG trade and you think okay you gave up RJ Barrett he gave up Emanual quickly two guys that this team valued

Who needed who you needed to move in order to get an upgrade on this roster right yeah everyone’s always looking at Young talent to say okay I believe somebody can succeed here yeah Grimes is prob is definitely the next guy on that chart saying okay if we have to move a

Young guy in order to get something back in return you know we’re probably have to move Grimes so it’s Grimes 48 contract as Fred detailed like if you just been watching the Knicks and how they operate you know the front office is thinking that so we’re GNA get

Through some trades later in the show okay but it it makes sense that Grimes is the next guy on the list but it’s it’s just funny man how things can change so quickly in the NBA because this was tbs’s guy you know this is a guy who he put on for the toughest

Assignment night after night last season he went from having you know he came on the scene his rookie season against the Milwaukee Bucks right yep shot Lights Out The Following season didn’t want to have EV forier in the starting rotation because you needed defense and as well

As good three-point shooting he gave you that and improved as the Season War on even when Josh Hart arrived here he was still efficient and now you’re talking about a guy who’s not valued anymore yeah how how quickly things change man I might have to pack my bags what do I got

To start up a Blazer fan T oh so so so let me ask you this if if Grimes is going out to Cleveland you’re going to Cleveland you’re going back to Cleveland I I mean you know I’m already getting recruited up there by a friends in the

Six man they they’re trying to outfit me for number nine jersey in red I’m trying to tell them like listen I I’ll support from afar I can’t I I can’t do all of that man but if Grimes is gone man that that will be tough however it’s expected it’s

Expected they they’ve when they traded RJ and quick you’re now down a couple assets he’s your only attractive Beauties in the eye of the beholder he’s the only attractive young ass set right now along with your firster round picks and so um there there is holes in in in this lineup you

Know a lot of people try to take us a task yesterday by by a lot of people thought we were blaming MC prde for last night’s loss and that’s not that’s not what we were doing but the point the point is is that what you saw over this

Past couple of games especially with Brunson out is that the Knicks are even uh uh lacking even more in terms of depth shot creating playmaking Talent it’s not no it’s not it’s it’s not McBride’s fault they just need more from a backup point guard perspective they need more playmaking they need guys that

Can break down a defense and and score so you know I’m not surprised obviously the Dante introduction put a lot of pressure on not just uh quickly but now but now Grimes Grimes lost his starting spot it’s been a struggle for him he’s been up and down and now

They’re going to try to see if they can make an upgrade and unfortunately it might be at his expense you also have to think see a lot of things that they’re doing is not just for the now but also future think about future your core players right now of

Julius Jaylen and OG are all going to be on that line to get paid that’s where the money is going to be invested in plus another person to be named later so they traded the RJ contract TR they they declined to pay quickly what he felt

Like he was going to be worth in the open market and now they have to make a decision on Grimes in a couple of years as well so just like as I told you bro everybody’s not going to be along for the ride and this is the way that

They’re going to have to upgrade his team it’s going to be at the expense of of players who already on this roster in tandem with the draft picks did you expect that essentially all the young kids would be moved did you see did you see that coming where RJ

Quickley Obie and now most likely Grimes are all gone and then between those two drafts of the front office those two years right you get rid of all your first rounders yeah did you expect that I I did expect RJ only after they had put him in the Mitchell trade once they

Put him in the Mitchell trade I said all right all bets are off they’re going to try to move them as soon as they can if if they find an upgrade the quickly thing was a little bit surprising I thought quick would have stayed with an extension then get traded for a bigger

Piece I still didn’t see him staying here long term Grimes it it could be it could be iffy but the point is is that you didn’t have a homegrown Talent although they were good role players when they were here good role players no slander no shade you didn’t have a

Homegrown talent that could establish themselves as an Allstar within the window that you have with Brunson and Randall as a and also as a complimentary piece they just couldn’t get them there so you have to package those guys try to get your fits and ultimately try to get the upgrade that you’re looking

For I guess I was just it’s not even necessarily that you found the guy it’s the fact that they even out of the players that they drafted right sometimes you just keep a player because you can see the value that they add and I guess the one

That you that people are looking at right now is looking at the Josh har contract that could have gone to Emanuel quickly if you wanted to extend him and he could have been one of those homegrown talents coming off the bench for quite some time as you mentioned as

I thought he moves you move him in a bigger deal for somebody as an up a larger upgrade it’s just a little it’s I guess it’s a little shocking I mean now we’re we got Jericho Sims and Miles McBride and that’s and those are your second round those are your second round

Picks yeah yeah so that that’s just what the shocking thing is to me man is that out of all the first round player all the first round picks you utilized all them are getting moved and it’s not like you get I I understand you have an All-Star in Julius Randle should be

All-Star in jayen Brunson you got that desirable three and D Wing that you’ve been looking for who’s a dog on defense yeah and now you’re trying to figure out everything else the only guy that is maintained through all of this is Mitchell Robinson but even in Fred cat’s

Article you know the Knicks are not looking to move Isaiah hartstein right now so that that’s going to be another tricky situation yep cost of doing business man it’s a cost of doing business in the NBA when you have a lot of role players you have a lot of young

Players contributing but you also have to be mindful of your salary cap implications going forward and how does that how do your goals align with that that’s what makes rasa construction so hard and so for the people who are just like well we just need to just leave the team as is and

And grow together into a contender it’s not going to work that way guys have to get paid and that how much you get paid you have to justify that with your value to the team and the overall success of the team can’t just pay everybody and just

Sit back and let the let the the grass grow it’s a conveyor belt man it’s a conveyor belt you got to is should get off the pot so your young players either have to help you win or help you get that next piece that can help you win Stepping Stones building blocks same

With coaching it’s the stepping stones and building blocks so the the point is is that if if they’re using these guys’ assets to help improve the team and they and they’re making the right decision the og1 looks like it could be that then you have to wait and see what this looks

Like you know so that you know that’s the next question if we go back to this cat’s article salute to everybody in the chat once again hit that thumbs up button for your boys if we go back to this uh this cat’s article he says the goal according to

League sources is they want to add someone who can help today and also has a contract that would be attractive in a hypothetical trade for a star this upcoming summer I read that as Donovan Mitchell you put on your tin for Kies and and do your own interpretations but what what

Does that say to you in terms of you know obviously they a lot of fans went Deonte Murray so what do you think about that if we look at De jonay Murray’s deal is that something that that’s the that’s the biggest question I have with Murray is that something that they want

To take on the three three years remaining because even if he can help now is he flippable in the summer to get spider or the next star if he wanted to well you know the thing about Deon Murray is that he actually has you know he’s this year and then he’s got four

More years right there there it is okay right there it is he the player option in the fourth year right uh he has a player option in the fourth year right so you know he’s not turning down 30 million well by the time 2728 comes around he might because that that’ll be

Cheap maybe you know what I but it also depends if he wants because the thing is that dejonte also wants to be part of a competitive team as well that’s also been the rumors going around the league right now so sometimes you got to have that favorable contract to go to that

Situation if you want to go be part of winning because what you think you can just go get paid and then be like all right where else can we go especially if if you’re looking at the way that the CBA has move has moved where you pay

Your top two guys they’re going to be on the highest contracts no team wants to go into that second apron where you don’t can’t even move picks in the future so I think he’s I think if anything he should probably stay depending on you know unless like he’s

Like top tier Superstar you know you’re talking about top 20 in the league yeah you’re really uh a contributor to winning although on the Hawks right now you’re not doing that right so this is biggest concern when it I put on the dejonte Murray we’re going to

Flip him thing right is that he’s not succeeding there you can by low as KOC said two first rounders what Atlanta wants you could do something like that yeah but then if he’s not looking good here is is Cleveland gonna say yeah sure he can go work here that’s that’s the

Next thing like so he didn’t work out in San Antonio so he didn’t work out in Atlanta and if he doesn’t work out in New York what makes it think what makes me think that he’s going to work out next to Garland yeah and Mo and Allan so

That’s the danger about thinking that way it’s saying oh well we can recoup his value and go do that I’m not I told you I’m not like it’s like that fantasy football fantasy sports thinking like oh I’ll draft three quarterbacks someone’s gonna be injured yeah yeah and then

You’re doing business with a team you don’t want to do business with so I’m not a big fan of that but I get the concept of saying hey his value but then you also got to add in what I also said is that is does Cleveland find him valuable

To be paired next to Garland Garland yeah that’s the big thing my question is couple things how much I I go back to the leverage play so we just pulled up de jonte Murray’s contract if we pull up Donovan Mitchell contract let’s pull it up again so to

Everybody in the chat once again lunchtime Edition live how many people we got in the chat man I’m here doing research I can’t I’m seeing 875 in the chat right now there you go man salute to everybody in the grind throw a hashtag grind in the chat if you’re on the

Grizzly okay so so this this is what I’m I’m thinking here right like in terms of Cleveland and their potential options if you look at spider Mitchell’s contract he’s got after this year he’s got 326 this year next season it’s 348 and then he has the player option so

Now if he didn’t NE negotiate the extension this year let’s say he goes into the summer and says you know what I’m opting out to test the waters does Kobe Alman have to say Hey listen you know this might be the best offer if is it de jonte couple more

Picks to get it done or or does Miami swoop in and and get I guess the question is so is it’s been Miami it’s been New York and Brooklyn is the top destinations always yeah I don’t see Brooklyn offering anything outside of Pi I don’t think Cleveland says oh yeah let

Me go get uh you know uh Spencer Den witty or doriis Vinnie Smith plus some picks to go move for Donovan Mitchell I don’t see them as but I can see Miami as like the real competitor especially if you put haime hakz in that deal right

You you give them a wing that they can pair next to Garland and Mooby I could see that move in the needle maybe a Tyler hero so if you’re thinking that way then maybe dejonte could be up there with a pick that you could say but yeah

It’s it’s still it’s still tough for me to even think that dejon would be what Cleveland wants because even what the Knicks did right like look at how they moved R RJ and quickly to go think about the fit yeah what’s the better fit because they’re probably thinking about

That too what’s the better fit next to Garland and it goes back to is Murray the better fit even though you get the picks with it like you still got that guy on the books for years for three years right or or yeah depending well I

I guess if if you were to yeah if you were to trade him by the summer it would be three left right it’ be uh it would be that year plus the three left right right right so something to think about but that makes me feel

Like it’s it’s more of a Brogden type of move where because again you go back to Fred’s article he he meshes in fornier here and you know will they will they trade him before the line will they trade him by the draft but what they’re saying is that potentially they’ be using fornier

To try to get a guy like a Brogden where you have similar salaries on Sim similar timelines that you can still trade as an expiring contract you get what I’m saying yeah no brogon makes sense just because it’s one more year he’s still valed around the

League I mean you hear teams even like the Lakers are interested in Malcolm Brogden as well so I could see him he you know value is so interesting around the league because it’s not only your talent but like it goes with the talent the contract and how much can we acquire

You for right like just remember the effects of Daman Lord it was Miami that was the driving the ship for Damen lard not every other team was thinking about oh I want Damen lard and Damen lard we’re talking about a top 15 player top 20 player in the league as soon as Drew

Holiday got on the market that there was more offers and bids for Drew holiday yeah than there were for Damen Lillard so I’d expect the same thing for Brogden the necessarily Murray at this point because Brogden two years you’re talking about one more year after this year can come

Off the bench yep one six Man of the Year Pros Pro I think it’s going to be a high I think yes I agree that the Knicks probably go that route just the way Fred phrased the article but I think you’re gonna have to bid there’s gonna be a bidding war for

Malcolm brogon too true good good points man Al I’m gonna put you on the line with e crossover running get my my uh my laptop charger and then we’re going to get to our trades along these lines what do you guys think man you can call us up

On the Nick fan TV Discord salute to everybody on the grind right now is Quinton Grimes out Grimes hiive where are we going let’s talk about it man how do we improve this team for the present for the here and now yes Murray has been

A name but we got some other names we’re going to talk about and discuss e crossover on the Discord go ahead and unmute your mic man long time bro oh well let’s drag him in he fell out of the live show e crossover are you there e

Crossover yeah you guys can hear me right now loud and clear what’s good man how you feeling hey man it’s been a while man uh just been doing a lot man just expecting the sun in March and everything man so got a lot going on with baby mama and everything though so

Um right now man uh my main my main concern about the team and everything is just about just about the trades especially when it comes to the bench um M Brogan is a really good name that we can get but durability to me is the biggest factor of anything if you can’t

Show up to work then what value do you have into my organization so the next guy I like to go with which is like the jonay Murray I think he fits very well with the team if you look at it when he was uh uh playing with San Antonio he

Was high usage I think he was around a 26 uh 26% uh usage rate and I think when he played and I think now he’s playing uh Trey young he’s like at 23 24 around there and he’s being very efficient at that role at playing the shooting guard

Which shows me that he can adjust to certain roles if he needs to play off the catch needs to play off a certain point guard he could do that with Jaylen Brunson and Jaylen Brunson could do the same thing because he used to play with

A high usus player like Luca so I think they can work together um greatly and especially when you’re facing these elite point guards that need that they you need a defensive stopper on the other end you have the jont T Murray guard the best point guard and with OG

Playing the wing he can guard the best Wing player that they have there also so I think with that defensive that that that defensive Duo right there especially with Mitch and ihart come like coming back especially with Mitch coming back and interchanging with iHeart you’re gonna have a defensive

Monster on on defensive three-headed monster on that team I’m telling you man with him and Jaylen Brunson since they can work off ball and on Ball and the fact that deir is a willing passer too and he’s a really good passer because when he played to San Antonio for his

Allstar year he averaged nine assists to games and Aver 21 points and he shoots over 45% which is a very good yeah but that but that’s the thing that was when he was a point guard yeah yeah yeah yeah I know that but I’m saying with got with

Playing with a guy like like Jaylen Brunson that’s not a very like pure-minded point guard he’s very more scoring like yeah they can ENT change that usage R together and I feel like they can work together very well with playing on ball and off ball I think it

Would work more perfectly than what he played with with Luca which needed the ball all the time to be efficient they could both play off the catch they could both play off the roll they could both play off the post like it it would just

Be a crazy D catch and shoot numbers I don’t think it’s all that good he’s not an efficient player bro he’s shooting he’s shooting 46% from the field and shooting 38% from three and that’s we’re playing off of Trey young yeah but what’s what’s his catches you I you’re

Saying he could play off of Brunson what’s what’s his catch and shoot numbers looking like uh right now I don’t you know of course I don’t know that number yet but just watching the games I watched enough of the Hulk games I wanted to see how he

Plays he plays off the catch pretty well off the corner I’m not saying catch off like the the wing or like the wing or the or the key but when he plays off the corner with with Trey Young when he passes out when he penetrates he’ be

Hitting those shots at a good clip and and and also like seeing them just down the stretch how they play together when the team is rolling they work pretty well but since their their defense is not great in the in in the Hawks organization going to a team like Tom

Tibido which he knows how to play you know which he knows how to make defensive schemes he can work really well with that same thing when he did when he played with pop okay it wasn’t a great team but as a defensive mind of player and making the right plays he can

Do it okay appreciate the call man good good to hear from you man that’s just me but I I won but the first last thing I’ll say is I Won’t Give Up unprotected for him I’ll give up the protected not unprotected and a player I don’t know

What player they will want in exchange for that that’s the only thing but for the right price I I’ll get the Jon all right durability appreciate the call man he crossover had to catch up he hasn’t called in years man I didn’t hit to ask him I didn’t hit to ask music on

Him cuz you know he’s been a long time caller that’s our guy facts facts and to answer your question though CP yeah Deonte Murray catch and shoot from three right now is three-point percentage 38.6% okay and that’s 21 that’s 21% that’s the frequency shot that he’s

Taking too yeah yeah so a lot of catch and shoot threes and he’s knocking them down about close to four catch and shoot three-pointers per game and he’s knocking him down at 38.6% all right not bad not not bad man what do you guys think in the chat man

Rate that call in the chat one being trash five being facts all right Al let’s get to trades and trade scenarios man let’s get to it um which one do we want to go with first here man while I load it up why why we start off with

Dante mer since that’s the topic of conversation let do y yep good one which one we looking at we looking at the one with Grimes oh yeah it’s more G let’s get to it here we go we got it loaded up it is loaded up everyone’s wondering

What it would take to get to Jon Murray here we go uh it is Evan fornier Quinton Grimes matching the salaries because you know the Hawks were interested in Quinton Grimes when we did the cam R trade few years back so they probably want Grimes as a catch and shoot guy

Another catch and shoot guy perimeter 3 and D typical player and we give them the Dallas 2024 first round pick and Milwaukee 2025 first round pick they said they wanted two first rounders okay you get two first rounders like I said I don’t see him getting an I don’t see the

Knicks giving up an unprotected first round pick for Deonte Murray um but I would say that’s a deal that could potentially get it done to go get Murray on this team so you’re saying 48 Grimes so Grimes side we’re going to Portland here in this straight scenario

Oh no no Atlanta not I mean I’m sorry I’m sorry I’m sorry Atlanta here go to you want to go to the a to do another kfv yeah we could we could go to the a I think that would be all right that would be decent I mean down there too for a

Bit Yeah but they they’re fair weather fans man you know they don’t rock with their teams until they’re winning man which is really never so they don’t really rock with their teams like that it’s a tough tough place to get acclimated to well 48 Grimes a protected first uh and the Milwaukee protected

First I do it yeah i’ do it too yeah I I do you need another guy who can create as e cross was say saying I think you talk you see the catch and shoot race for from three yeah that would could play well both of them now you had Deon who

Had to learn how to play off a Tron because Tron so ball dominant yeah like I said Bronson had you had he had to Le play next to Luca so those guys should be able to understand the ab and flows of playing point guard then playing shooting guard and then good three-point shooting

Man and Deonte is a legit defend defensive guy I mean I know people are questioning his defense but that Hog’s defense stinks so I don’t look at one guy’s not going to solve everything um but I think you want to talk about sharing up the perimeter yeah with some

Uh good defense and three-point shooting Deonte could be that guy and then you can stagger him too with that second unit I I definitely do it uh you you definitely need to stack him with that second unit for sure I would do it I you know is that what Landry Fields is

Looking for according to our guy K they won two unprotected for or two first round picks right they gave up two unprotected to get him would Landry Fields do that are there any Hawks undercover Hawks fans in the chat speak for your GM would you do that Lopez 10

Pick that Bucs pick is only top four protected you know the Bucs are not going back into the lottery anytime soon yeah unless something catastrophic happens and even if they did there’s a greater chance that it’s not top four true and then for the uh Mavs the way

That they’re playing they’re six right now and after this season I think it conveys to two second rounders right so might as well move it if I mean most likely going to convey this year but yeah that the hope that you wanted with the MAV pick was last season where if

They were out of the top 10 you could have still been in the lottery if the Mavs didn’t decide to uh you know just quit on the season yeah okay all right no problem man um hang on one second uh okay let’s get to the next one

Let’s get to the next one salute to everybody in the chat once again hit that thumbs up button for your boys CP and Alex working the trade machine we’re we’re putting in the work man let’s do it all right what’s the next one bro all right let’s go to Malcolm Brock since we

Discussed him okay all right here we go so which which one are we which one are we showing for I got 48 Grimes 48 Grimes okay I don’t think you need any draft picks to go on this one for for Portland they got enough picks over there but I

Think this is a little bit of an overpay if you’re thinking about move if you want Malcolm Brogden I say it’s a little bit overpaid but I also know there’s going to be offers for Malcolm Brogden as well uh just the way that the reports have been

Going for his services so if you want if you don’t want to include picks I think it’s for and Quinton Grimes you go add another guard I think it might be able to guard heavy out there yeah um just because you got uh was you got you got

Sharp you got Simons you got scoot so I don’t know where Grimes would fit into that rotation but you can match Brogden and you can match the Sal of Grimes and for to get Malcolm Brockton yeah I agree with you this will would be a little too

Rich for my blood now it would satisfy the Nick’s goals to to kind of swap expiring contracts for potential expiring you use BR you use brogon in a deal to kind of flip for your star with with the picks now for the present that certainly helps you get your playmaker you get a

Potential scoring threat some defense solid veteran playmaking injury-prone now if he goes down now trade goes into the crapper for for this season in terms of your playoff you know playoff goals because that that just kills your your depth yeah yeah that’s for sure uh but I

Don’t like this one I did do another one just because I thought that uh just with the Grimes news I’m just I thought that one but there is another one out there okay uh you’re trying to save yourself from Tomatoes they didn’t throw any really I’m not worried about respect out

Of respect for you they didn’t throw any really um but I get it I dig it I take it I did the RJ and uh Grimes for uh who was it OG and Gary Trent Jr last year so one of those two of those players were

In the right were correct the other was not um all right so okay so that’s number two so okay well let’s say this one is 2b right you have another brogon one yeah this is 2b 2B 2B here we go brogon all right here we go this one is

You trade Brogden and forier the contracts match right yep but in turn you give them the 2024 first rounder uh for this year for Dallas just because I don’t see for me I don’t see the Knicks I see the Nicks need to make a draft this year to get more rookie scale

Contracts and they’re probably going to move off of Grimes but I don’t see them going back to the weal saying you know we’re going to take two first rounders this year because they have their own they’ll have Dallas because it looks like they’re on track to make the

Playoffs this year I don’t see them taking two first rounders and just saving them because I don’t see the playing time that’s there so I think they’ll move one because they are going have they are going to have to resign OG this offseason so I see them keeping one

Player if they’re thinking about moving Grimes so you can move off the Dallas one you move the Brooklyn unprotected 2025 second round pick and you move 48 and you get Malcolm brog return okay all right there we go what do what do we think in the chat here man

Thumbs up thumbs down are you pulling the trigger on this trade leave some comments in the chat let us know what you think yeah I do this one easy I don’t see just because if you think how the Knicks did the deal with Josh Hart last year and like trade with

Portland to get Josh Hart last season I should say uh it took cam reddish Ryan Arch diako zve and a first rounder right so I think he’s GNA take another first-rounder forier and it really like that trade was really the first rounder that they wanted yeah I I think this is along the

Lines of how they’ve traded in the past deadlines yeah right um and and you keep your young asset that you can use in the summertime you keep an expiring deal in your in in your War chest that you can use in the summertime you address your current needs for a veteran playmaker

And and scoring MH yeah I I think this I think this is an easy one man what do you guys think man thumbs up thumbs down in the chat jp7 says definitely 2B over 2A RG the OG says he shouldn’t start drinking before noon I don’t I don’t know what he’s

Referring to but I mean what what what’s the big deal about the picks you gave up the Dallas pick which is worthless and you gave up a second round pick from Brooklyn in 2025 the Knicks have 22 picks you got 22 picks you have 22 picks from now until

2030 what we’re not drafting all these guys or or is this 48 Hive in the chat trying to muddy things up man I I mean you had a couple people last night looking for fornier so maybe it’s forier Hive not happy about uh sending him to Portland where’s Benji in the chats

Benji undercover in this chat because he wants to see fora on this team okay all right man so that’s 2B we are in the trade machine heavy right now all right let let’s get to it what is uh number three sir number three which three let’s

Go to let’s see I’m looking for the it’s Jordan Clarkson okay okay hang on hang on hang on yep I thought I thought that was a I thought that was the bonus no no no there’s a different there’s a different Utah trade oh yeah oh yeah I

Yeah I definitely yeah I like that one I definitely like that one all right so let’s get to the Clarkson One Number Three yep all right here we go Jordan Clarkson okay I don’t see it cting that much to get Jordan Clarkson okay Utah’s essentially said everyone’s up for grabs

Obviously Mark in is going to cost hell or high water to go get him because that’s how Danny a is going to roll with you know the most improved player uh candidate but I think Clarkson’s easy can be had uh the contracts between forier and Clarkson

Match up what you do got to do is give up a first rounder in my opinion I think you give up you give Ang to Dallas they don’t have a first rounder this year actually Utah Jazz do not have a 2024 first round pick so I think that could

Be very valuable to a because the way I’m seeing him build like it’s not a big free agent destination no one’s looking to go out to Utah yeah so you’re gonna have to draft and I think they want to get back into this year’s draft like I said the Mavericks playing

Well so I think that would be very valuable to them and then you trade the second round pick for Jordan Clarks and you know this is where I would go if I was uh this this is one option if I were the niick I would think about this

Direction just to get a guard that can get downhill primary ball handler uh he can play him next to Jaylen Brunson you know he could be that shooting guard I I know people are going to wonder like I don’t think this is some are going to probably say this isn’t

Enough you need to include other guys well the difficulty about the Knick’s trade for OJ and anobi is that and signing McBride you can’t trade a lot of these guys can’t trade a lot of them can’t trade McBride A Heart until uh offseason anyway yep can’t trade them to

The offseason you can’t tra you can’t compound trades with Malachi Flynn or precious aoua so you those guys have to be traded as Standalone players yeah so this is the difficulty of what the Knicks did and when they made the trade uh so I see it as for the

Only guy being dealt out I don’t think I include Grimes for this I think that would be Overkill to get Jordan Clarkson he does have a few more years I think he is valuable as a you know a bench piece he did win six man of the year one year

Yeah think clks solid man I think they would be solid pickup for this price I don’t see Danny AES doing that um but you know I I I think uh in in the lens of a Clarks and based on this price yeah you would take it now what’s his his contract looking

Like let’s take a look at Clarkson’s contract got this year and two more years got this year and two more this year and two more so do they see Jordan CL Clarkson as a flippable asset do they send him back to Cleveland as a we all started where it

All started for him send them back home do they do that didn’t he start with the Lakers he did start with the Lakers yes that’s right he did start with the Lakers but he that’s right he ended up in okay I remember this one yep yep yep yep he did

Start on La okay what do you guys think about the Clarkson deal man thumbs up thumbs down in the chat let us know how you guys are thinking salute to everybody in the chat salute to everybody on the grizzly CP and Alex on the ones and twos we’re talking trades

Man your your favorite time of year ladies and gentlemen we we are talking trades I’m trying to close up uh internet windows so my computer doesn’t crash and um that was that was just the NBA report I just had the NBA report up Monday Wednesday and Fridays 3 pm make

Sure you guys tap in on youtube.com theba report okay that was number three Al number four where are we going here we go number four let’s go to I know everyone’s asking about this guy so I decided to you know who Burks help the fan base

It is for to Washington we’re going to tus Jones baby all right all right hang on hang let me get the graphic up let me just make sure we are on the same page here here we go tus Jones now once again I don’t think it’s going to cost much to

Get tyus Jones uh but if there’s an actual Suitor to go get tyus Jones this deal probably wouldn’t be enough but once again going back to the trade implications that the Knicks made for OG and Obi and extending McBride fornier you give Washington back their first round pick and you go get

Tyus Jones okay okay um can certainly help as as a floor General a playmaker Off the Bench like his game only only downside is really the contract he’s a free agent after this year right y final year final year of his contract then he got to pay him and now

You lose a potential asset in the forier contract that’s that’s a tough one about Jones I like Jones tough one though I like tyus Jones yeah uh I I probably wouldn’t do this trade if I’m being honest with you yeah just because not even necessarily the

Contract I just don’t see the fit with the Knicks I don’t think they need just a guy who can sit you know he’s a pass first guard yeah they need somebody like deante who’s gonna want to score yeah I agree so I don’t see this be I I

Wouldn’t do this tra I like tyus Jones the player if you told me we needed somebody and replace of I guess miles McBride I would say yeah yeah let’s think about this but I’m I’m not doing this yep uh I agree with you they they do

Need a little bit more punch Off the Bench and the contct contract situation just just doesn’t do it salute to everybody in the chat once again hit that thumbs up button for you boys EJ want says these trades are so mid okay Al do you have anything for Macau

Bridges man can we whip something up and and get maau bridg is here just give the people a little spark you have anything in the trade machine for LeBron James uh Zion who who else uh you know Luca donic oh yeah do we want to go there or do we

Have an inseason Blockbuster for Joel andb do we do we want to dream that way you know you certainly have a lot of channels that’ll help you out man if you if you want to throw throw the tin for kofy all the way on you certainly have a lot of content

Out there to do that and I mean if we’re looking I mean even to hear dejonte Murray’s name for the Knicks for a mid-season trade that’s pretty impressive I’m not g to lie you know that’s I think that’s that’s them taking a step forward saying you know what we want a

Star not the Superstar but a star yeah you know what I mean that that that’s a big step for the Knicks and we gotta be real what have the Knicks it’s Derrick Rose cam reddish Josh Hart OG and anobi yeah they want to they want a Booker can

We can we get a Booker scenario let’s torch the bridge in in Phoenix they don’t care about their team that they just put together let’s put a realistic scenario here for Devin Booker uh to take us to the championship and and beat the Bucks in the Celtic how about that

Yeah as they’re the eighth seed right now in the west they’re actually playing pretty well right now uh even with their full with their big three fully healthy yeah I can see Deon Booker being on the trading block right now would it work for Deuce uh the MVP of the team right

Now I mean could we get a one forone swap or or do we need to like throw in a you know throw in ryano man you just trade Ryan arch diako for Deon Booker and that’s all you need to do okay give a 25 Milwaukee pick yeah okay got it got

It all right making sense now okay number five five live where are we going we’re going over to LA and not for the Lakers but for the Clippers okay we’re looking at bones Highland oh man all right yep uh I’m interested to see everyone’s reaction for bones Highland

Now this guy got traded from the Nuggets last season to the clippers for just two second round picks I put Ryan Archie diako in here as one option if they really wanted to player back but you can also complete this trade without Ryan Archie deakino and go

Get bones Highland if you wanted okay so that’s something that you could do too but I think you do have to trade Archie diako or you you would have to cut somebody if you did go get bones Highland if you didn’t include a player in the deal so I’m going give bones

Highland hey I think he’s a good spark plug Off the Bench uh the guy can get downhill solid shooter shoots close to 40% from three uh just has to work I say on his like his inside the inside the artc game a little bit but I think if

You want somebody who can control the Rock and get downhill there’s bones Highland now the only thing I would say is that outside of it you have a young rookie contract right uh it’s not necessarily of the value of a 48 that you can go just you know do a trade by

Itself but if you want to say hey maybe upside potential for a young player you’d have to include him in a deal uh the other thing is I don’t know if tips would actually trust him no that’s the big thing when you look at when you look

At uh Fred cats’s article and keep in mind this was this was thought up before just a few minutes before yeah uh the article dropped these are the qualifications to be a tip for the trade that Fred cats know let me just pull up uh let me pull it up right here someone

Who Tibido trusts tradable salary at least one more year remaining on yeah his contract someone who can run the offense when Bronson is hurt or resting he could do something close to what quickly does is just be a scorer Off the Bench uh he has a one more year on his

Contract after this year uh it is tradable okay not necessar bulky salary like for is it someone that tibs trusts no probably not no sir uh yeah if I would do it I’ll would get bone silent on the Knicks personally sorry man the chat is not feeling it out man sorry

Man Tomatoes Tomatoes man this the one that’s getting tomatoes out of everything else this is what getting Tomatoes I hear someone on the call too that’s like ah who who’s on the line that’s all this of stuff salute to everybody in the chat once to get man hit that thumbs up

Your guy Kelly oen okay and my guy Colin seon right all right all right all right we’re trading forier Quinton Grimes Ryan Archie diako I didn’t I don’t know why the picks aren’t in here but the picks would be I would give up uh I’d give up the Dallas first

Round pick as well okay to go get these two guys and bring them on the Knicks all right Clarkson uh uh what you call seon having a good year man Scrapper he’s competing I mean he’s always competed you know what I mean he’s always a feisty competitor Nicks

Fan 8518 in the chat says sold you sold him man let’s go yeah looks like he might call sexy man you want to talk about a guy who played point guard for the Cavs he can do that coming off the bench he you want defense yeah I just

Think about the guy who’s at the free throw line staring at his opponent dead in the eye all right he’s a dog he’s a dog he’s a dog all right go get me Colin seon yeah now well what’s deal looking like he’s got three years left it says that’s correct tradable

Salary tra okay okay tradable deal let’s look at seon’s deal he did sign his rookie Max extension let’s take a look see salute to everybody in the chat once again hit that thumbs up button for your boy CP and Alex we’re doing the research all right we don’t we’re not just

Talking trades right now we’re doing the research man trying to find some realistic options here okay he has uh two years two years after this year two years after this year before it’s number restricted free agent 18 million a year that kind of fits the criteria according

To Fred cat saying that they want somebody in the teens or the low 20s in terms of salary not bad not a bad thought and you get my guy Kelly oen in here I like what you did there man that was good work by you really really utilizing the trade machine there man

Because we can’t go into the playoffs kill two birds with one stone CP kill two birds with one get back up Center depth cuz yeah you need it ain’t precious and he can shoot you get a guy who could play defense and guard the perimeter really

Well yeah how do that deal press is gonna have you pulling your hair out come play all time you better hope Mitch comes back or they get get some some depth precious can’t get no play time can we give not in the playoffs bro not

In the playoffs I I see can we give the headband to are we talking about precious we can trade precious in an aggregated deal right now you trade him to the bench trade him to the bench and leave him there Street closed all right Al I think this might

Life okay to the Discord we go Christopher Blake how you feeling let’s go uh salute salute salute guys what’s going on Salute um so I have two things right I have a a straight scenario because of course you guys know that I’m the president of the dejonte Murray to the next tribe I’m

Sorry can you hear me yeah I’m here yeah Goode all right all right so did a bit of research and it seems like the Hawks want to get off of the capella contract as well right seeing that the Knicks don’t like the kids anymore they don’t

Want to pay no more child support I have a feeling that they might also be willing to move Mitch in a similar package for a healthy Clinton capella so including you know I did my little trade machine as well and what I was able to come up with is maybe a

Capella de jante Sadi Bay package for Grimes Mitch Robinson and and um for year of course because you got to make the contracts match throwing some picks it’s something like that I’d probably be able to throw in some unprotected because the Knicks don’t do anything with unprotected picks

Anyway we trade them to move off kampbell Walker’s contract we give them out for a loaf of bread I don’t even think we really value them so I don’t even know why we would hold on to those to be perfectly honest just to make the trade go through um and going into my

First point we kind of skipped a little bit yeah when we traded away our kids we kind of made it known that we are in win now mode so we kind of have to do what we need to do to take care of now and one of the reasons and I I appreciate

You guys um offering up that take on brockden we gotta also remember Brockton is 31 years old he’s not getting any younger and he’s not getting any more durable and I believe we would be it would benefit us to lock in players right now who are under good contracts

For when that salary cap increases so that we can definitely be able to make more moves because if you think about it this way I think even the jonay mory’s 32 million in what year four we’re gonna be paying Obi that next year yeah I mean

Not OB OG I’m I miss the kids I’m still talking their names so I think we need to lock in that before the Hawks realize that it’s truly Trey young who is the problem and his bad shot selection bad shooting percentages and unwillingness to let go of that ball another reason

Why the jont Murray last thing he came up in that spur system that spur system doesn’t really rely on one guy holding the ball as you can see they had Jeremy soar running point the other night U well many nights not even gonna lie to you point guard in in pop system is

Similar to kind of moving the ball you know Tony Parker wasn’t really that type of guy who you know dribble dribble dribble he’ll get to his shot move the ball so I think he would fit very nicely in Tim’s read and react system and that’s all I got to say my guys I

Appreciate y’all time as always thanks Christopher Blake thank you thank you for the call man it’s too many tomatoes man we got to drop you off man the chat is growing a little bit unruly thanks for the call man have a good day Christopher Blake Al I don’t

Think they uh I don’t think they felt that uh trade and block n moner was the right thing to say I don’t think they like that or Quin capella yeah P capella they didn’t like that um yeah not a fan of Quin capella he’s not even the same Quin capella that

He was from Houston going to Atlanta he’s not the same Clin capella that terrorized the Knicks who terrorized terrorized Nicks a couple years ago in the playoffs oh oh because let me oh wait wait wait because we didn’t have our guy who just took down the Twin Towers by himself even

Though I hate using that nickname because Mooby and Allen are not that so wait you mean that guy who had to go against nland Noel yeah that guy yeah okay everybody likes sad Bay man what’s up with that Bova guy oh okay I guess that makes sense then let’s see Capella’s

29 yeah he’s only 29 that’s kind of crazy though he’s still mad young yo he’s been the leag for Mad one time still mad young yeah when did he start with the Rockets then when he was 20 oh wow wow damn he still is young but yeah I don’t

See the Knicks moveing Mitch um not right now I don’t see it happen for capella what’s this contract like he’s got uh 20 this year 22 next year the contract is fits the goal but I don’t I don’t see the Nicks moveing Mitch just yet I don’t see

That uh okay yeah let’s see he’s Mak there so him and Mitch how much is I’m got Mitchell Robinson contract MH Mitch is uh 12 what well no what’s Mitch at 14 he’s making 60 a year so he’s yeah he’s making 15 it’s a declining so he’s making 15 this year 14

Next year 12 is last year of the deal capella is making 20 this year and 22 next year okay I’d rather keep Mitch than go trade for capella yeah I I agree including Deonte Murray in that deal too right yes think he was I think he was

Yeah what do you guys think like if you’re trading Mitch I’m expecting iHeart to get paid mhm I don’t see them putting 22 even for one season 20 whatever ihart is gonna make that wouldn’t make sense plus you got Sims whatever happens to Precious that’s a

Lot of money at the center position yeah salute to uh Brian orante Al just join the franchise Channel member salute to Brian orante we got AA in the chat to fight out Super Chat says tb’s not not willing to try lineups because of size it’s going to be his downfall never try

JB and IQ and not going to go with Randall at the five OG at the four and get Quinton Grimes more time okay we’ll see I mean um you know a lot of you guys last night were complaining about Julius randle’s defense and now you want to see him at the five

So I think the coach has knows what he has right now and knows that that would be a recipe for disaster as it has been every single time we see it well who would you rather have playing the five precious ihart ihart outside of ihart would you rather have precious or Randall

Randall Randall so I think it like if you’re going like I would just put Randle at the five and just go put Dante out there go get some just go offensive heavy for a minute I hear that I I I certainly hear that uh Above the Rim fight out Super

Chat says Murray sadik Patty for 48 Flynn Grimes precious two first and a second so you can’t trade Flynn or precious at that at this moment shout out to flavor frease shout out to Jamal Pruden F out Super Chat says I used to tell my fam RJ is like a vanilla ice

Cream cone good but nothing special Melo validating what he said well that’s a good segue let let’s get to the Mello comment man because uh on the Nicks docket this week Al will be the Marquee matchup our Underdog Fant game of the week and it will be RJ Barett Emanuel

Quickley and the Toronto Raptors coming back into town at MSG to take on OG Julius hopefully it’ll be Jaylen and the Knicks now here’s what uh our guy Melo said on the 7 P PM the Brooklyn podcast make sure you guys check them out shout out to our guy uh

The kid Maro as well as our guy Carmelo Anthony number seven tap into that now let’s hear what Melo said and and uh react to it on the other side here’s what Melo said about RJ man he just like no it’s not that’s not a shot that’s not no disrespect you

Just you know a lot of people lot of I ask a lot of people that who are Nick’s fans and see what they say and just like he’s just not bro he he he’s he’s good he get it done sometimes but he not an exciting player like you don’t know if

He got four or 26 exactly he’s just going to the rack crazy every time Lefty and then the and then the personality too it’s just like Bland you know what I’m saying like I home now he home so he might be good he’s now he’s good cuz

He’s in Canada he’s in the I don’t think RJ leing has something to do with it maybe but I don’t think it had anything to do with it because nah because OG can do the same thing RJ doing he just don’t demand it the way that RJ demanded to be

A part of the offense like oig is cool sitting on the on the the wing and moving around and cutting and waiting for somebody to swing into him and knock down a three he’s just a bland playero he just like it’s not that’s not a shot that’s

Not all right so our guy Carmelo Anthony State melow hash Stow uh says RJ is a bland player what do you think about that Al maybe he could have phrased it better yeah because I think that’s what everyone is upset about but he’s not wrong like he’s there’s nothing

You know there’s no highlight real worthiness of his game I mean it’s along the lines of like Tim Duncan I’m not saying he’s playing like Tim Duncan don’t get me wrong about that I’m just saying but like when you watch Tim Duncan you don’t think of automatic

Highlight reel when I think about Paul Pierce I don’t think about automatic highlight reel like the way he played his game it was very you know fundamentally sound right and I’d say RJ plays more of a fundamentally sound game than being a highlight re worthy player

On a night toight basis and he doesn’t like we know he doesn’t have the step back jumper we know parts of his game like that still need to be worked on but I don’t think he was too far off in the style of play and you know you had Meo say like Bland

Personality like he’s not somebody that’s going to give you equipable videos or hot takes while he’s up there you know he’s just going to keep it about business that’s what we liked about our very professional about that man he took his he took his job very professionally man yeah that’s what

I could say about RJ maybe that’s what is the better way to go about it very professional not g to give you a hot take takes the G plays the game you know in a simple manner yeah yeah not flashy I I don’t I don’t think it should have been taken personally a

Lot of fans took took umage with what Melo said I’m a mellow guy I’m an RJ guy I didn’t see it as a shot this is Carmelo Anthony man you know 75 greatest of of all time like I can’t I can’t see that as a shot to you know his fellow Al

Alum but how many times have we talked about on the show that RJ didn’t have a bag he wasn’t an exciting player he he was not an exciting player and sometimes or a lot of times even in his high scoring games it some some of them would end up

In a loss so it make you wonder how much is he impacting winning even if he is scoring right that was always the question is he playmaking is he is he locking down defense is he coming up big in a clutch how much is he impacting winning

That was a big question with RJ uh uh not having a mid-range game not having a pull-up bag having a a one-dimensional move to the basket effective what he needs it to be and so that’s the other side of of the coin here is that no he

Wasn’t an exciting player but when he was on he was very effective you see what he’s going out there doing in Toronto he’s doing the same thing they still can’t stop him so he has his skill sets he has his limitations I think he plays on his

Strengths very well and it works for him it works for him so he’s still mad young we’ll see what happens in terms of of what the future holds and what his ceiling is but no he’s not a very exciting player but at the end of the

Day there’s a lot of players in the NBA that aren’t very exciting but they are effective look look at the look at the whole conversation around yic last year how how exciting is joic to the younger fans not really you know what I’m saying like yeah now to the

Basketball purest yeah you love to see how a big man of of of his size and and and lack of athleticism how he moves and how he moves the ball and makes his team better it’s it’s great from a basketball Pur standpoint but it’s far from

Exciting you know what I mean yeah so that’s why I don’t see it as a shot and then from the personality standpoint I appreciated RJ staining lowkey you number three draft pick your number three draft pick in New York stay out of the way and keep working I appreciated it yeah professional

Professionalism to the highest degree is what I think about when I think of RJ Barry now if there’s a quote to be angry at CP uh shout out to Steve popper who wrote the article who’s speaking to that Anonymous executive or whoever that may be but calling RJ IQ and obis soft is

Where I’m like that you didn’t need to say that I didn’t I didn’t one I didn’t like that but two I understood why the person spoke under the guys of anonymity because it was such a loser cheap shot thing to say I didn’t agree with like that you know if you’re gonna say

Something like that be on camera you know show your face right right put a name to it I I didn’t I didn’t like that I don’t I never considered any one of those guys soft players every player has their limitations I didn’t think they were

Soft at all I I didn’t think RJ was soft at all to play in this market under the bright lights far from soft far from s that that that I don’t agree with limited yes but not s that and that like using soft can be misconstrued as a

Character trait like I know I understand that they were talking about defensively saying that the Knick’s got tougher defensively yeah but when you put the word soft in it you’re thinking about mentally weak physically weak and I don’t put any of those guys in that category because like you said they had

To play in New York man yeah and I think when you look at all those guys situations to come in every single day and not necessarily get the outcome that you want to do but still show up to work still put in the grind that’s that’s not weak at all

That’s not soft that’s tough yeah I I didn’t see it man I didn’t see it look they they made the trade that they felt like was going to help this team not just for the now but going forward we always talked about the fact that this

RJ and Julius tandem was going to have to be get broken up at some point you know not to not to get back into the the the trade and you know where where it puts the team but they made the move that was best for them I don’t think

It’s because RJ is soft or that he’s Bland or this that and the third they just felt like they had to pull it back a little bit to move it forward and I think this trade will end end up depending on what the Knicks do after this but certainly for the Raptors that

Thing is going to work out man they sent him home they sent him to a great situation he seems to be doing very well I mean how how much did he have last night in in the uh in the Boston game yeah 24 hey and I will say two MS Point

RJ had 24 four and then 24 so to say you never know what you’re going to get whether it’s going to be 26 or four points right on brand yeah but I mean [ __ ] it looks like he’s shooting the ball effici went shot 11 to 19 last night nine boards four

Assists looks pretty good man so this is RJ’s team man you know so RJ’s team so yeah like I said man I I I don’t take it personal or you took a shot at at RJ I mean fans been saying that how many fans was say

That every night on on the show you JJ from Brooklyn will put that comment in a Hall of Fame it’s probably it’s probably uh over the mantle right now seeed framed yeah so there that is uh you guys let us know you guys be the judge let us know

Your thoughts in the chat hasib is King close the show for us man hasib is King close the matina Edition Grind Time hour of the show hey CP do you hear me l c how you doing man I’m doing good man not too bad um just wanted to quickly talk about like

The trade and with the Grimes Leakes that just came out today regarding the reports um I’m not surprised kind of the r was kind of on the wall beginning of the season when Grimes was talking about his role on the team and then him losing his starting you know starting spot uh

It just drivve me crazy that you know last week we wi five games in a row and then all of a sudden it takes one bad loss and now the whole fan basee in shambles all of a sudden like you know we’re still six teams above 500 you know

It’s something to be worried about it’s only January right but right trading trading Grimes I mean I wouldn’t say it’s a bad move to do that because he still has some type of value and at the same time you know you see what our offense is like when we don’t have jayen

Brunson and then we don’t have an actual point guard on the team that’s that’s backup so we need to make that move ASAP Grimes I like Grimes a lot but he just doesn’t move the needle at all we do the same thing we do all the time with young

Talent where we overrate them or you know do something that overv them pretty much yeah you know I mean grimes’s bad play is the reason why he’s not in the starting lineup no more if he wasn’t building Brick House in the beginning of the Season he’ probably still be a

Starter Dante demenzo who we were saying over the summer that was overpaid $50 million for four years he’s shooting lights out this season and he’s doing the same exact role that we had Grimes do yeah you know what I mean we can’t knock on tips for that Grim’s the one

That’s shooting the bricks so why would we you know why would we overreact to losing Grimes in this case you know I I really like that Colin ston Kelly Lin deal that Alex um put out I think doing one trade that kind of fulfills two needs is uh is really good because I

Can’t see precious you know playing in at the five it’s very bad I feel like I’d rather have noell overes or bring Taj back or bring that see what he’s doing man yeah and then and then lastly with the the J thing you know I I understand why

Nicks want to do that to stagger minutes and kind of maybe when you know Randall and Brenson want to get that rest you play to jont to get some offensive Firepower in there because now that we have Duce showing what he can do on offense um him playing off ball would

Kind of help out a lot but I I think it just really simple we need to do we just need to trade for like a brag or someone that’s not going to cost too much assets we still own a draft pick um our own this draft and we still have that Mavs

Draft pick depending what we do with it draft some rookie skill contracts get a backup Wing get a backup center or even a power forward and then from there make a trade in the offseason I don’t think it’s kind of rocket science what we got

To do you know I mean we kind of know what this team is at the moment so I don’t think there’s something to overreact about you know if we trade Grimes to get something better to improve the team then so be it okay appreciate the man good to hear from you

Man yep thank you man I appreciate it sounds good all right let’s take a look at where uh things stand with the squad right now um last week you had let’s see what what they where they were last week I mean you had a uh the win over the

Blazers you had a tough loss to the Mavs with uh you know just not looking not looking like a a defensive team I mean you lost to the Mavs no LCA Don and and Kyrie cooking then you you beat a severely underhanded grizzley team 10694 and uh to start this week off it’s

A four games four games on the Slate they lose to the magic 98 to 94 now uh hasus King says you know it’s only January but look I mean things change I mean last week they were in fourth in the East now they’re in seventh still

Separated by a game but the Magic game is important the next Pacer game will be be important the Heat game the Cav game these will be important cuz these are the teams 4 through eight these are the teams you’re going to be yeah Pacers magic these are teams you’re going to be

Competing with so yes it’s only January but now you put yourself with this loss against a magic you can only the best you can do is tie the season series you have four games against them two left best thing you can do now is tie so you

Got to think about that as the season progresses um your thoughts on that out where things stand you hit it you hit the nail around the that CP there’s not much to add is that all these games matter you see how tight it is between the third and the eighth

Seed and this is where I think the Knicks are doing their Dil just being serious they don’t want to take a step back and allow another team to go be competitive because it’s not just the Knicks yeah look just look at the Damen lower trade no one was talking about

Milwaukee came out of nowhere got Damen low then look at the aftermath of that right you go Drew holiday to the Celtics it’s you don’t know the domino effect of what another trade can cause so if you’re the Knicks you’re thinking Brogden you’re thinking Murray you got

To add somebody so that way you could stay competitive in this Eastern Conference yeah and with a home heavy schedule in January like shout out Alex is great in the chat you can’t give away home games like that you don’t want to do that you have a home heavy schedule

In January take advantage of it so um let’s see what happens there now looking ahead they’re going to be hosting the Rockets tomorrow got a scrappy Rockets team coming in that can knock you off we’ll see where Brunson is he did participate in shoot around yesterday

How close is he we’ll have to see so you got Rockets then backto back against the Wizards and then you get the the homecoming RJ and quick what’s your predictions man we got wizard we’re winning the Wizards game not too worried about that sounds like you’re worried about out tangon tomorrow

Uh sangun is a good player but I think ihar can can do that’s gonna be a good match up it’s gonna be a good match up it’s G be a good match up yeah um Rockets game should be very competitive tomorrow it all depends on if you need Brunson back need Brunson

You need Brunson you need Brunson if you get Brunson back I’m confident that we can defeat the Rockets if there’s no Brunson a a little I mean we lost to the magic and it was a tight game and I know we didn’t have Brunson but they didn’t

Have the Vagner Brothers on that side so that’s Rockets are also a tough team right not confident about that we don’t have Brunson and then uh for Toronto I I would expect Brunson to be back for that game so I expect a win on that one I

Expect get a win against the Wizards okay Raptors it all depends on tomorrow but if if they’re gonna rest Brunson for tomorrow’s game I’m going two and one on the week and it kind of seems like it’s going that way well two and two because they lost yesterday two and two on the

Week yeah two and two I agree I agree with that I agree with that if if if they get Brunson back I still think the Rockets game is going to be tough I think they’ll get up for the RJ game on Saturday and you know wizards they they

Shouldn’t have any problem with the Wizards I’m looking forward to that game I’m looking forward to the Raptors game you’re going to that one right I am I will be there I will be there uh with my number nine jersey on manoo yeah yeah that’s that’s what I’m doing

Yep still says New York still says New York on the front hey I’m looking forward to watching uh RJ go against the Knicks I’m looking forward to that match up I’m also looking forward to quick and Brunson doing quick and Brunson doing battle or or is it quick and

McBride I really hope Bruns is back man oh what a shot to the McBride hiive man you better come on man you better not you better hope they not listen to man my man dropped points last night my man dra 20 points last night I had a good player man I’m actually impressed

I’m actually impressed the more the more minutes he gets the better he’s starting to looks not going to lie yeah looks good so yeah shout out to dce man I actually think you know despite the need for an upgrade on the bench I actually think these are great minutes for him

It’s great experience for him he went up against a tough stingy magic defense last night and was putting up buckets he was trying to match Cole anony energy is just the rest of the squad couldn’t follow behind Julius you know number one candidate however the point is is out of

That position that he’s playing they just need a little bit more it’s not a knock on him they just need a little bit more because nobody else on the team and everybody else is very limited in terms of being Playmakers being shot creators in their own right so you just needed a

Little bit more out of that so uh great show great show to everybody in the chat uh rate hour trade scenarios in the comments section man what did you think which one did you like the best and which one did you not like man leave it you know honest honest feedback is
