I will say, IQ averaged almost 30mpg last year, this idea that he never got a chance here is a bit false.

Too early to tell. Is their another subsequent trade imminent?
Anyone else lovethat during a time when everthing leaks this trade did'nt? Them even having trade conversations a month ago about OG did not leak.
Hunter is a hard pass. Always injured. Bradley Beal territory.
We are in a tough spot with two starters always injured in Mitch and OG. Need guys available. OG will soon be the most overpaid player in the league.
Unlocking Grimes and getting him back into the flow of the offense and opening up space is paramount.
Duece is going to give you some good defensive minutes, scoring is going to be a big problem going forward.
Is it Clarkson? Mitchell?

We need offense but we also need switchable defenders. The age of Thibs leaving the 3 pt shot open has to come to an end. Especially with Mitch out. That whole defensive scheme sucks balls. So I say we get Dejaunte Murray to pressure the opposing of at the point of attack or get a bigger wing to pair with OG .

I have to you, I used to put more emphasis on this but I don't know what to make of it.
Bam and Jimmy Butler miss a ton of games every year. Is Miami worried?
Bam: 76, 56, 64 last 3 years. Butler: 64, 57, 52, 58. Jamal Murray: 65, 0, 48, 59. Jrue Holiday: 65, 64, 56, 61. AD: 56, 40, 36, 62. LeBron: 55, 56, 45.
Those are the important guys who are on deep playoff teams.
I don't know what to make about injuries and games played per year.
Pic still looks weird to me
It's a pretty good spread offense.

Knicks got $6.8M with Obi and now $5.2M for this one. Plus the Mitch disabled player exception which would be $7.8 if approved.
That's some good slots to have for a massive trade.
Different circumstance but same feels

We appreciate you Brock. Dropping back 4 spots to scoop up a future second that is almost a first rounder this year.
Starks was on his last legs when we moved him and the Knicks were trending down at the time. Similar sentiment losing guys we drafted.
But IQ will average 20pts. OG is a guy everyone covets, but it’s hard to understand because he doesn’t do much on offense, his defense is great but watching him you’re never blown away. His rebounding is also disgraceful.
The Heat can afford to miss guys because they have the best run organization in basketball and arguably the best coach on the nba who knows how to make adjustments. Thibs is an always prepared but you would never consider him a quick adjustment guy.
The Heat also consistently steal players late in the draft, win trades and find guys on the g league of undrafted.
The Knicks always seem to have to give more than other teams to deal and our arguable the worst lottery drafting team outside of the pistons.
It's the perfect, high level role player for the Knicks

The clickbait trade rumors never come to pass and the actual moves come out of nowhere.
