Shams: Knicks Trading Obi Toppin to the Pacers for 2 SRP’s

Former lottery pick for only 2 Second Rounders? That’s a steal by Indy.

Hopefully this trade helps reinvigorate the hated rivalry between these two franchises. :nod:

Didn't they just draft his brother?

Decent value, still have some potencial, Pacers have the minutes

Steal. Guess the argument with Thibs sealed his fate.

I'd say his brother's time with the Knicks will be short lived too.

Obi is limited

Nothing to see here

Seems awfully cheap imo, I know he had a limited role but sheesh talk about mismanagement of assets.

Knicks are legitimately one of, if not THE WORST drafting team in NBA history.

They absolutely suck at scouting. I called this pick a bust the moment it happened. Obi was always trash.

Well, who should they have taken instead?

Haliburton?

They are a terrible franchise that continues to fail at basic asset management

Ummm…yes?

They also drafted Frank over Donovan Mitchell like idiots.

That’s good value for Toppin. Not sure why Knicks are doing this though.
