Burks for a highly protected 1st and expiring contract is the kind of deal I would be looking to make.
I'd rather be adding a first or two and trade Burks and Knox with those picks for an upgrade.
Would Harrison Barnes work as a 6th man in this kind of package? Basically replace Burks with Grimes and Knox with Barnes?
I like Barnes in Fournier role. Better fit. But I wouldn’t be giving up draft picks for Barnes right now. It’s not the kind of move that takes the Knicks from fighting for a home play in game to title contender. NY needs to save their draft Capital for when a star becomes available.
The thought process was turning a redundant role player into more draft Capital while also opening up minutes for Quentin grimes.
