I would love this!
McCullar (maybe Diawara too) is now the most important player for us to develop. If he can develop in his role then he makes Josh Hart tradeable so we can sign Mitch to a proper deal without going over the 2nd apron.

You could arguably make the same statement about Huk.
McCullar:Hart; Huk:Robinson.
Mikal is frustrating but guys with his talent are rare breeds and amongst the most valuable prototypes in the NBA. Having Mikal and OG sets us apart. Hopefully Brown can tap into it a little better than Thibs could. I'm not sure Mikal guarding point guards full time is the best path forward. Locking in this core was important. This team is stacked and the best move that was on the table was running it back and fortifying the bench and trying to get more creativity from the sidelines.
Fair deal for Mikal, he plays as much as 1.5 players and thats something you gotta consider salary wise. Looking at our future salary KAT really sticks out. i still hope somehow KAT for Lebron comes out of nowhere. we dont need Lebron the savior anymore, but he's simply better and gives us more flexibility going forward.

I can see Huk replacing Robinson easier than McCullar replacing Hart. Huk played some minutes where he looked like he belonged. Not quite the defensive stopper that Robinson is, but not bad either. But he makes up for it with better contributions on the offensive end.
McCullar hasn't done anything yet. To say he's going to replace the 2025-26 sixth man of the year (yes, I said it!), is classic Knicks fans talking out their ass before a guy has logged any minutes.

The statement was an “if he can develop” statement. I think all anyone is doing is drawing similarities in their size and play style.
Bridges' trade kicker is exactly for the 6mm discount he took. By extending him now he becomes eligible to trade before the deadline. Knicks are smart. They extended him, he wanted to be here...but if they gotta move him he'll get his max and we can do it. Smart biz.

Problem is Huk is so injury prone he makes Mitch look like Ewing before the 1997 wrist injury

Huk with Achilles and meniscus issues.
We need big men we can count on. Huk and Mitch likely ain’t it.
