who wouldn't is the question. I feel like we have some quality bigs and this would help balance out the roster. I'm not ready to jettison Randle as unsalvageable - but Randle and their pick for Brunson would seem like a win win trade for both clubs. Wrong?

And don't get us excited!

Yeah, I have no idea how Dallas values Brunson or how Knicks feel about Randle (but I'd guess it's in line with most of what Knicks fans think).

Dallas seems like it is doing OK against Utah even without Doncic (and I say this without seeing any of the games) but I don't know if they are realistically going to beat some of the even better western conference teams without a big that can also dominate.

Would the Mavs be taking a risk on Randle given his huge inefficiencies? Cuban seems like a risk taker and what other avenues do they have for an upgrade that could be significant? I dont' know.

Does Dallas need another big for a team like PHO? Or if they had to play Memphis, Denver, Wolves?

Brunson, Dorian Finney-Smith for Randle, Noel?

I thought Dallas really liked Finney-Smith.

Key question is what does Kidd think? I think Kidd is a really good coach and maybe a change of voice helps.

If Brunson really wants a big deal like Randle's, maybe this is a deal that works out for us.

I think they do. I think they like advancing further into the playoffs more. Have to see if Randle may be that enticement but who knows

I don't watch Dallas games at all, so I'll start there.

But having someone else who can carry the regular season burden of scoring, rebounding for months at a time could be beneficial for someone like Doncic. Let's him coast for long periods and keep fresh for playoffs.

DFS doesn't do that.

regardless of the particulars any of us come up with, the deal seems to make a lot of sense for both clubs, and I hope they make a deal. It just helps both teams too much to not do it.

I will happily take the other side of this bet.

Ok. Corned beef sandwich knish and cream soda are the prize. I’ll take Brunson getting max

I think Max for Brunson will be 25% of the Cap. So essentially ypu are betting he will make more than $30M per which would put him on the top 10 highest paid PGs.
