Why Mikal Bridges is worth the high price tag for the Knicks. #nba #knicks
is he worth this many picks historically you’d say no the fact that Brunson and bridges combined are 48 million and that’s less than Bradley Beal at 50 million that’s a huge win to add this kind of piece in and why bridges are so valuable on this low number in the 20s this year and next year so now when you look at say you’re talking about Boston Boston’s best Advantage was that every time they had five guys on the floor that’s five guys that you have to guard there’s no one that you can cheat off of so to throw bridges in with Brunson with har or defen chenzo depending on what the lineup is then you add in OG to this it’s hard to eliminate the conversation and say hey don’t worry about the picks right now because historically it’s it’s a massive massive price but just looking at the Knicks and what every team should be trying to do it’s easier said than done like hey we want four or five guys with the ball in hands that are all a threat adding somebody like this even if he’s not this perennial Allstar that it it makes me kind of just look at the price and go whatever

In all conversations regarding the offensive options the Knicks have, everyone leaves out Julius Randle. It's weird.
Does this one exist as a podcast?
With the aprons, it makes sense to give up draft picks in the future. I’m not sure he’s worth that many though.
First time allstar next year
Bridges being happy and familiar means first all star appearance . Yes , you heard me right , Brunson being around his buds did it for him and it will happen to Bridges .
They have to get rid of randle
Resign stein and it’s a wrap
Knicks r stack they stay healthy there winning the championship
Now they just need to dump thibs for Jay Wright lol
This is gonna be a fun team. Melo Knicks had moments but the ball didn't move at times. They currently have quality across the board
You are forgetting Randle
people keep talking about these picks like they were gonna be lottery picks… they were all going to be late first rounds considering WE ARE TRYING to compete cleary. we ended as the 2nd seed and didnt lose in the playoff bc of skill but bc of injury… we arent thinking about no damn picks. look at this years numebr one overall pick. give me a break lmaoooo
Is he worth the picks no but trade makes sense HOWEVER defensively Brunson is still the odd man out. Just look at how the Celtics specifically Jaylen Brown hunted Luka in the finals, they will do the same to Brunson.
Should of went for Murray from Atlanta was only 2 firsts
Trade looks worse and worse by the day and it has been 5 days
Those picks are shit. Knicks will be a 50 win team for the next 5 years. So, bye, keep’m. Enjoy picking 28th.
Brunson + Bridges < Beal is crazy
The Knicks Horrible Bosses are Trash! The Knicks are a clown show !
I think it’s sad when Knick haters say but we got the Knicks 2031 first round pick. That just sounds ridiculous.
He’ll miss a couple of games due to overuse
Sorry this is not gonna pan out the way our fanbase hopes. Building a roster with limited halfcourt shot creators spells DISASTER! Miss me with the cheat off of when only Brunson & Randle can actually create their own shot.
As much as Draymond’s POV has gotten under our fans skin, he’s 100% right! No way you look at this roster in comparison to what level of half court shot creation Boston, Philly, Milwaukee & Miami has & say the Knicks are title contenders. Analysts are dumb or cowards to call this Knicks roster title contenders.
