Hawks pass on Randle for sure and the guy in this trade the Hawks should be going after is Bridges.

I don't know why Atlanta wouldn't just cut out the Knicks here. They'd want Bridges for themselves.

If it was last year sure, but this season Julius had his best season as a Knick and Mikal looked a lot worse than he did last year. I think most fans would pass on this. Julius is pretty much here for the long run… too good a fit with Jalen n OG.

No way Knicks getting Bridges to team up with OG w/o giving up the latter. Besides that, the Hawks will be selecting one of Zac or Sarr with no need for Randle.

Not a fan of this for New York. Brunson's awesome, but he needs someone else that can create for themselves & others.

It's striking how much less efficient Brunson is without Randle...and we often end up having to dig ourselves out of first quarter holes since Jalen takes some time to figure out a defense, whereas Julius typically comes out of the gates hot and cools off as teams send more & more help his way.

Bridges would obviously be a great fit as our #2 perimeter defender, but as our 2nd option offensively he'd be disappointing and wouldn't let us rest Jalen as much as Julius does.

BK would be passing on this offer everyday of the year.
