Just becuase you don’t understand something does not mean its a dumb move. Its just not apparent.
Reddish has played mostly garbage time and has not enough time to practice and blend in.
Also, he is a young 22. I suppose the question is what does the FO think of him as an asset on the court or as a trade not just this month but this season and beyond.
Is it really incomprehensible that the knicks might have a plan that exceeds the trade deadline and this season? I suppose that being “Patient” means drafting conceptual players to fill conceptual needs.
Or does this conflict with fans youtube highlight gullibility thinking those never miss clips translate to fantastic NBA careers?
Might it be better to comment until after the draft deadline? There is a reason for him to be here. We just don’t know why. Does that make it dumb?
Waith the season and see if we sit Burks and give minutes if we not playoff bound?
Maybe, we are after a player and part of the package is “We’ll do it, if you can figure a way to get Reddish in the deal”? Thats plausible. Or, “Zion can’t do a thing until healthy, but he tells his agent that he really wants to be in NYC with his dukie’s and would consider knicks under that circumstance”. Thats plausible. Personally I think thats a big stretch.
Its plausible that we make a big deal he is in it, or we want him in the aftermath as not to leave thy cupboard bare like we did with the Melo deal. (JROD, relax, its not a slight on him, it was on FO not having enough around him!)
Or on someones whiteboard in MSG desires a long athletic 3 to play with randle and RJ or off the bench for quality minutes. Might not be for this season.
Chess, a game not for short attention spans.

What do you call it when someone can't keep up with Connect4?

No shame in that!

Knox was the 9th pick AND Cam was a 10th pick .. When you look at both players performance, they both are equal.
How much does it cost for a late first-rounder in the draft? $2M or $1.5M
Leon & Perry got something ($$$) under the table.

The Atlanta Hawks went on a 7 game win streak after the team kicked Cam out of the locker room.
Plus the Hawks put a end to the NBA #1 winning team Suns 11 game winning streak.
I do understand the reason Cam's not getting any playing time, what I don't understand is trading Knox and a first rounder for a guy not better than Knox.

Knicks see potential in reddish where they didn’t in Knox.
Is that potential fulfilled? Future will answer.

that, and maybe RJ is the future and Cam is an old buddy- and who knows, maybe there is a move afoot to get Zion.

Or just an uptick in the locker room chemistry. The past is in the past but it still stings to think we had Knox miles and Mikal in the same gym going head to head and convinced ourselves on Kk. Of course ther was shai etc too but the same friggin gym

at the end players play and players execute or don’t.
Knox might not have fit the bill or Thibs which is ok given he inherited him.
Did He want Redish? Did he not? What is the timeline for labeling a fiasco?
One week? One month? ONe season? Knox had little value to us. Is Redish better at SF in the next two years than anyone available in the bottom 16 picks that the charlotte pick represented?
That we have Grimes coming and RJ as near stud, how does this all fall into place?
Lets visit this in two years?
