Knicks Get Reddish per Woj

Leon Rose of you pull this off you mf…

How the hell did we manage to buy low on a player rising up wtf

Whose minutes are the Knicks unhappy with if this doesn't merely set the table for a Zion move?

If they want Cam to get minutes, somebody's gonna have to play less.

Maybe it's Obi. Maybe it's Grimes. Maybe it's Fournier. Maybe it's IQ. Someone's gonna lose minutes.

The most far-fetched scenario is they're thinking of selling high on RJ, but that seems unlikely.

i think it's obvious thibs doesn't like obi much and obi is a little unhappy with his minutes. cam more of shooter too. maybe they'll try noel & obi for turner.

Essentially the Knicks traded the 19th pick in the 2021 NBA draft for 1.5 years of rookie control Cam Reddish and his RFA bird rights.

NY gets a year and a half of Reddish in their system to determine if he's worth a long term investment. Worst case scenario you missed on the 19th pick in the 2021 draft. Best case scenario, Reddish develops into a versatile 3 and D wing.

Solid risk/reward IMO.

theres no risk cuz those 1st rounders burn a hole in the knicks pocket and that particular 1st wasnt really valuable with its protections in the first place

This trade could turn into Reddish being a bust and the Knicks giving ATL the 15th pick in 2024 or 2025. Or Reddish could turn into a good player for the Knicks with the Hawks getting 2, 2nd rd picks.

it's far from a bad gamble

[JBreezeNY]

if he was great, he wouldnt have been available for so cheap

Yup…..Hawks are 17-23 & have been trying to get rid of him…you don’t try to get rid of talent when you’re under .500 and trying to make the playoffs.

It’s cause they have to pay him soon and they’re already paying up the ass for Trae, Collins and Clint. They chose Hunter over him.

Ehhh I think it’s a combo of that and also the fact Cam isn’t that good.

But…..with that said, maybe Thibs can bring something out of him & this will only help RJ having people around he’s familiar with & potentially it opens up the Zion/RJ/Cam reunion. Zion would have to decline the Rookie extension which I high fu*king doubt he does that, we shall see tho.

And then, Mitch and Randle for Fox.

i'm sure after cam meets tom, he will pray every moment of his waking life that he could be reunited w/ trae again.

[HarthorneWingo]

At least Leon didn’t trade off Obi, Grimes, Deuce, etc

[Clyde_Style]

RJ for Lillard and then MavsGod.

Enough!

I guess we really interested in Turner. We got the wing. The rumor leaked via Shams and Begley.

Love this deal.

Let's see what else is coming.

Yeah, Cam's in year 3 and really hasn't been great

There are flashes, sure, but he hasn't put it together

So the Hawks don't want to extend him cause he's kind of an unknown quantity, and they've already extended Huerter and Bogdanovic, and Hunter is just better and also needs an extension

It's a gamble for us, but a calculated one.

[Oscirus]

when the rumors said that some teams were interested in knox, i thought that was just for laffos well i'll be

[K_ick_God]

On the notion that we need better perimeter D, it's fine & good. But his O won't be reliable. And if it's to build around Randle -- by trading young guys for a Lillard or whatever, I'm out.
