Let’s get started the major obstacle in the New York Knicks trading for dejonte Murray has been revealed and we’ve known for the last few weeks the Murray conversations have been ongoing between the Knicks and the Hawks but unfortunately the Knicks have nothing to show for it because the trade has not
Gotten done yet but now thanks to an NBA Insider we know that the New York Knicks and the Hawks have been having talks at least behind the scenes and trying to get a Murray deal done but now according to this Insider we now know the major obstacle that is stopping the Knicks
From getting dejon Murray on this roster let’s take a look at this report according to NBA Insider Michael Scot of Hoops hype the Atlanta Hawks guard has been linked to numerous teams in the recent weeks and was reportedly at the center of trade talks with the Knicks
The two teams discussed a potential deal including one first round pick quitting Grimes and the expiring contract of Evan forier whether the Knicks would have agreed to move forward with that deal is unknown because as things stand now we may never know this stems from the Hawks
Pursuit of a second first round pick in a deal for Murray an asset that Scot reports the Knicks didn’t have an appetite to move at this point here’s his full report on the this situation according to Michael Scot I’ve touched on the Knicks as another team that was
In the hunt for Murray that has cooled off New York currently feels the asking price for Murray is a bit too high right now it’s one thing for a first round pick the expiring contract of Evan forier and Quinton Grimes that package has been kicked around but that extra
First round pick that Atlanta is looking for right now hasn’t been something that New York has had an app TI to move at this point shout out to NBA Insider and great friend of the show Michael Scot for giving us this great update on the New York Knicks their pursuit of De
Jante Murray and what they were comfortable in giving up in a trade for him and as you heard that was Quinton Grimes Evan forier and a first round pick but that wasn’t enough for the Atlanta Hawks because I believe de Jon Murray is playing so well they’ve increased his value and now they’re
Seeking another first round pick in discussions with with the New York Knicks and because of that extra first round pick the Knicks are looking at this deal and they’re thinking to themselves I like the jante I want him on this roster but I’m not willing to
Give up more first round picks and a deal for him now while I can understand that in my opinion if the Hawks are only seeking another first round pick along with Evan forier quitting Grimes and that other first that you’re including already why are we having this
Discussion go out and get de jeante Murray right now what are we holding all these picks for what are we going to do with all these picks I don’t know if you guys have noticed this Knicks team looks phenomenal right now right now without even making a move they look like
Contenders could you imagine what would happen if they added a player to the caliber of the jeon Murray to this roster if they look like contenders right now then you could probably lock them in as potential contenders ERS for the NBA Finals that’s what Deon Murray
Does for this team that’s what he means for this team he fits this team perfectly under Tom thibo and I’m not the only one who feels that way according to sny’s Ian Bagley another NBA Insider he notes that a lot of people internally within the Knicks organization actually like the fit of
Deon Murray and Jaylen Brunson in the back court they’re sharing my belief a belief that I’ve been basically screaming on this platform for the the last few weeks as I’ve been talking about de jante Murray and why the New York Knicks should go after him and clearly the Knicks know how important
Dante is and what he could mean to this Nicks roster because that’s why they’re having talks with the Atlanta Hawks trying to get deante Murray on this team but here’s the thing the Knicks are winning and they’re winning games a lot like I mentioned and they’re doing so
Without the jante so if the Hawks are asking for another pick in this deal the Knicks don’t have to give up that other pick to get D jante on this roster and the excuse they can give to all of us is the Knicks are winning they look good
They look phenomenal and they are beating the teams they should beat but after this OG nnobi trade they are smacking the teams that a lot of fans are not even giving them a chance in beating like the Denver Nuggets like the Philadelphia 76ers like the Minnesota Timberwolves all teams that the New York
Knicks have beaten some of those teams they’ve destroyed and that’s a statement not only to the Eastern Conference but to the entire NBA that the New York Knicks are ready they’re here and they’re ready to make noise in the playoffs once they get there this season
And I can assure you all of the teams in the NBA are watching this Knicks team and none of them want to face this team in a seven game series because they can see how good how great and how lethal they are right now and if they make
Another trade for a player of significance a player that can help impact this team in the right way I don’t think any NBA team would raise their hand trying to go in a first round series with this New York Knicks team that’s how good they look right now it’s
Also important to note here that the New York Knicks currently feel that the asking price for Murray is a bit too high right now and they have currently cooled off in terms of wanting to trade for Murray why that’s important to note is if the New York Knicks have cooled
Off on it the reason and the only reason that would have happened is because the New York Knicks are winning games and once you’re winning games and you’re winning games by a lot and you’re beating teams destroying teams and you’re doing so at a really good record
11-2 under the OG an anobi era for the New York Knicks right now once that happens that’s going to make you rethink your trade plans so if the Knicks had interest and desire to trade for de Jon Murray and and it was here given the fact that the New York Knicks are
Winning so many games and the Atlanta Hawks have increased their trade price for the jante Murray in trade negotiations with the New York Knicks and with keeping all of that in mind and understanding who our president of basketball operations is in Leon Rose and the fact that he doesn’t like to
Overpay for any player he likes to get them for a fair deal what he likes to give up or for a steal and if those options are not on the table it’s likely that Leon Rose is not going to do that deal considering all of that I think the
New York Knicks and Leon Rose are going to hone in and focus in on trying to get a player to come off the bench that can help stabilize the offense once Jaylen Brunson is taking a rest and I think that’s the only thing the New York Knicks are looking to add before the
Trade deadline because the Knicks are winning they look good and they look dominant once that happens it’s going to change your trade plans just a little bit and if the player you want anyways is going for a higher asking price now it’s is going to basically lead you or
Force you into a move that helps you now and in the future depending who that player is that the New York Knicks traded for could help them in the future to help facilitate that trade for the star they always wanted so that’s a couple of reasons why the New York
Knicks May entertain a type of trade to get this Knicks team better before the trade deadline but if you were wondering or you were hoping or you were thinking that player was going to be dejon Murray kind of like I was you now know that it’s likely that trade is not going to
Happen and the main reason why is because the Hawks are increasing their price point with any trade negotiations with the New York Knicks asking for another first round pick on top of the trade package of Quinton Grimes Evan forier and one first round pick that the New York Knicks were already comfortable
In giving up for Deonte Murray the Knicks and Leon Rose should not be patient here players like de jeon Murray don’t come around often when you see this opport opportunity on the table you have to you must seize it and if you do if the Knicks do this and they give up
That other first round pick that the Hawks are looking for it’s not going to hurt the Knicks they can still make that major star move in the offseason if they want to and they can include dejon Murray in that deal depending on who that player is that’s available that’s
The best part of this dejon Murray helps them now helps them in the playoffs helps them next season and also helps them make that star all star or Superstar trade that they’ve always wanted to do whenever they want to do it because deante Murray’s value is going
To increase playing for Tom thibo his defense is going to get better playing for Tom thibo and he’s going to give you all of that and more on this Knicks team a Knicks team that’s contending and mind you when he was talking about potentially being traded there was
Reports out there that stated if deante Mari was traded he would rather go to a contending team the New York Knicks at as they look right now I don’t think you can doubt it when I say they are looking like a contending team in the NBA and I
Think we absolutely have to acknowledge that and since that’s the case it fits the needs of De Jon Murray and the Knicks have the assets to get this deal done if it’s just another first round pick on top of Grimes forier and the one first round pick you were comfortable in
Giving up anyways then I don’t know what we’re waiting for do that include that other first round pick get this deal done and watch this niick team flourish watch this niick team go off and watch this Nicks team be a player in the NBA Finals because that’s what I think a
Dejon Murray deal does we’re waiting for the New York Knicks Leon Rose and this front office that he put together to make the trade make the move that the New York Knicks need to make to get better this season and make even more noise in the playoffs because that’s
Exact actly what the New York Knicks need to do and if they do that they’re going to make the New York Knicks an attractive destination for other stars to want to come and play for and ultimately that might be one of the goals for the New York Knicks this
Season as well too and making crucial moves by the trade deadline is how you do that I can’t wait to see what Leon Rose and this Nicks front office has in store for us but what about you guys what do you think about this major obstacle the New York Knicks are facing
In getting Deon Murray on this roster and like me would you give up that extra first round pick that they’re seeking to get D jante on this team let me know in the comments Below guys because honestly I would love to hear from you but that’s
Going to do it for this episode I hope you enjoyed it and if you did go ahead and smash that like button leave a comment below and of course guys please subscribe to the channel until next time Nick fans peace
The Atlanta Hawks continue to look and be sellers by the NBA trade deadline in a few weeks. Apart from a few notable players, they have made most of their roster available. Though there hasn’t been many reports about it, it seems the Hawks and Knicks had discussions internally regarding a trade for Murray. Unfortunately, Murray’s price tag has gone up and the new deal on the table for the Knicks has Leon Rose and company concerned about making the move. That major obstacle is discussed at length in this one. Troy Mahabir breaks all of this down!

But honestly, if Grimes continues to play at this level, we actually have a shot at the ECF. MAYBE even winning the ECF. But I agree, Dejounte would make us much stronger.
I’m all about bridges or knowbody else
I think the New York Knicks don't want to get Murray because they are going to get Donavan Mitchell when he is a free agent or trade. Yes he is doing well in Cleveland but his wish is to play in New York in the First place. They want too much for Dejante Murray. Screw them
We just traded RJ…we better trade for murray if it takes grimes,forgetnier and a few pics…
Murray would bench Donte. Murray is a better player but I like the outside shooting. Especially Randle benefits with Donte on the court
I don’t understand the issue here they are playing pretty good right now and to add any play like Murray, or anybody above him will improve the team significantly. What’s the issue here?
Let’s give ATL those trash picks (Was, Det, mil)
If Brunson or Randle get injured this season The Knicks will then wish that they made a decision by giving up those 2 first rounders..
Since when 2 picks were high? Knicks never get shit right always want to go the cheap route! They were thinking to give Cleveland 6 picks for spida. Don't mess this up knicks give them the 2 picks!!!
Listen bro I love Dejounte's game but honestly you cant mess up this chemistry god forbid. the move to make is getting olynk and clarkson from Utah for grimes , fournier , and i honestly would give up two picks for that. need depth on the center postion too. All the credit to Sims and Achiuwa last night but lets be real that aint going to get it done in the playoffs for the long haul
if pascal gets moved for 3 frps, murray is definitely worth 2.
Dejounte Murray is the second coming of Jamal Crawford WITH defense. Doesnt that sound like the perfect player to fill the backcourt void for the Knicks? I would do THREE 1st round picks. We have enough picks remaining to still do a summer deal for a superstar… And if Murray doesnt deliver, he can be part of a mega package for a superstar then.
Leon has got to loosen the purse. Murray is worth it. His price went up because he has shown to be valuable. If JB gets hurt for a couple of weeks, Murray can keep us winning. That’s what he’s showing in ATL with Young hurt. Pleas pull the trigger Leon. If not, that’s a mistake like Hets not getting a serviceable backup for ARod
Horrible take but what’s new. Stop deleting comments too.
OMG. This guy is delusional. Just because a team is winning now don’t mean anything in the playoffs. Pat Riley said you learn more from loosing then from winning. This 38 blowout to Denver is going to hurt the Knicks because know the front office nd this guy are feeling them selves. They forget that last week they lost a close one at home to Orlando again. They forget that Julius always did this during the regular season. They forget that Jalen or Og can get hurt. Add the damm second pick man and stop doing stupid stuff.
I think its time for us to pull that plug and lets get this 🏀 be on our team already we need his services and will be top 3 in no time
Lmao😂 Knicks are not getting Murray they don’t want to jam up their books. Where not giving up 2 first round picks and grimes. Smaller deal will be done if any.
We had this back and forth with Donovan Mitchell and then lost him, at least Leon could try grimes Fournier one first and throw in a second round pick , if that doesn’t work them I’d do what u said and throw in a least valuable first round pick as second first round pick, get him at all costs, we knocking on the door of a great team,
They are contenders right now.
Don’t the Knicks have 8 first round picks we can afford to give up 2-3 picks to get a player like Murray with him we can make it to the finals
Let’s all email Leon rose lol
These YouTube influencers always think they know. It's like the people that work for espn they don't know. shhhhhhh, so do the influencers. I love what my Knicks are doing. There are other players out there who fit well with this team. Murray can't be that good. He plays for 2 teams, and he didn't make his team better. He might be a good player, but he might not be a good team player.
I want Murray….pause…he would be a perfect fit pause
might as well wait until the trade deadline, let OG get some more time to fully acclimate before you add another ball dominant player
why does he have to roar all the way through?
Yes, get D Murray plus Alec Burks. We need as many shooters for this championship run. Veteran shooters will be needed for their leaderships in the coming high pressure games.
Give them the picks,we don’t know how to draft good players anyway
I give them anything they want to get married on this New York team. That's one guy we need to make a further push to the championship this year😂😅
Some of the fans here are dense and clearly rode the short bus back in the day. Murray looks great right now, as he's the number one option since Young is out. The same goes for Mitchell, he's ballin right now, since Garland is out. The bottom line is both players don't play well with others. Bringing either player here would mess with JB as he's a ball dominant guard. The Knicks need a complimentary piece, someone like Tyus Jones or Brogdan, both players who've made their careers being back-ups or super sub.
The Murray trade is not happening…why would u mess with this starting lineup right now?if there’s a trade that would improve our bench without giving up too much then that’s the move we need to make
Maaaaan they better stop being so tight up with those pix
Atlanta will circle back when they get a sense of what other teams are offering. I’d give up the Bucks pick but I want Bey or Griffin back as well
I feel like the knicks are over valuing there draft picks. None of these picks are going to be top 15. Give the hawks the 2 1st picks for murray. U can always flip murray if need be.
I believe the Knicks are too late. Murray is going to the Lakers. When you snooze you lose.🙄
I would for sure give up a second first rounder, evan and grimes for murray very quick. We wouldnt need noone else…maybe just a backup 3. No superstar, jalen would become that very soon. We'll have a tough defensive and offensive team for a few years, have to sign OG…
I think they should get Murray so long as everyone knows that JB is the captain on the floor. He's the PG and Murray can be the SG. If not, then Murray can be the back up PG off the bench. Don't ruin the Knicks chemistry right now. The bench just needs more points but if Grimes plays like he did against Denver, then leave them alone. They good. Go Knicks!!!
Well let's say this…..let's say the sixers get bounced in either the 1st or 2nd round…whether it's the knicks, Celtics or bucks that beat em…and Embiid says get me outta here and demands a trade I would rather have Murray then the picks to offer with Mitch Rob along with picks, then just the 2 more picks to offer.
Knicks fans like you are what’s wrong it’s not about this year like yea I wanna win rn but I don’t just wanna win 1 and I don’t think people see tht potential here Knicks are 1 star away to be realistic who says it’s not 2 or more gotta think better then being emotional your points good but we don’t need Murray as bad as they wanna get rid of him
The Knicks Management didn't want to win ,Murray would put the Knicks to become a contender. Knicks Management Rose should pull the trade off ,If we lose Murray, I will tell the manager to get lost manager.
