Knicks/Pels/Hornets

[louc1970]

Based on if the Hornets really want to be playoff contenders.

Hornets trade Bridges (S&T), #6, Bertans
Hornets receive Randle, #21, #24, # 25.
Hornets get Randle to help lead Miller, LeMelo and get 2 later picks to package or take a shot at role players. Hornets get a shot at a back up center in Edey, Missi, Ware, a 2G in Furphy, George, Shannon. 3 chances are better than 1 unless you really like who is at 6 better than Randle+.

Knicks trade Randle, Bogdonavich, Mitchell, #24, #25.
Knicks receive Bertans, Bridges, Ingram.
Knicks move a former all-star to help lead the team at the cost of #6. The pick is most likely in a position they already have (unless they value Clingan/Knecht/Reed). The later picks are preferred since they are role players regardless where picked. Bertans gets cut with Hartenstein resigning as the starter. OO moves to the 2G spot.

Pelicans trade Ingram, #21
Pelicans receive Bogdonavich, Mitchell, #6
Most know Pelicans aren’t keeping Ingram so turn him into pieces you need. Turning Ingram into Mitchell and (Dillingham, Castle, Topic,…) gets 2 spots covered.

Bridges can't be traded before the draft, can't be combined with picks for a sign and trade

Randle doesn't fit the Hornets timeline and is he even better than Bridges anyway? Pass....

[HornetJail]

yeah we can't combine the picks and the S&T so this is DOA

I don't believe a Randle led team goes anywhere, and think his absence actually helped NY, so I'd pass on this anyway, even though we're not really giving away THAT much value here.

Wouldn't the Knicks Hard cap themselves by doing a S&T for Bridges? Also why are they trading the best player in the deal (Randle)
while also giving up so much for Ingram?

Remember Luke Skywalker no S+T with current draft picks
