Rick Brunson permanently tied to JB on the Knicks. Not surprising I guess

How


As of last year...Mikal and OG were basically worth 7 1st round picks between each other.

The idea that the value has changed a lot since just 1 year has always been wild to me.

Yea I mean OG was supposed to be worth multiple picks - knicks got him for less because he was a pending free agent, and Quickley had a lot of value.

Bridges was worth a few picks (knicks overpaid by a couple).

Combine them together and it's not terrible value for the bucks - or if it's a 3-4 team trade where younger/better prospects and picks go to the bucks.

It was rumored Memphis was willing to give 4 1sts for Mikal. That was like last year.

How


I supposed a 4-way trade where OG, Mikal (to MEM?), Mitch (to LAL?), and some picks (WAS 1st, swaps, 2nd rounders) go out and Giannis comes back here, leaving you with a big 3 of KAT, Giannis and Brunson. Then you hope guys like Hart and the rest of the minimum guys can fill in roles because there won't be much left to add more talent beyond that.

Hart and Giannis is a disaster.
