I'd LOVE to get Kuzma... hopefully, between this and Beal, Kuzma would be in play

I think him opting out makes a trade very difficult for the Knicks.

Trades like this one and the Beal to Suns deal keep me confused as to what different players trade values are... it suggests we could have possibly acquired KP for something like IQ and salary filler (fair to assume IQ is realistic comp to M.Brogdon) if there was mutual interest?

And Beal for broken down C.Paul and no first rounders given still surprises me - even with understanding Beal's contract is horrid

celts will find a way to hide his weaknesses and accentuate his talents, the same way they did for Horford

All DC got was pick 30 for KP, we could have beat that with Obi and a future pick. Guess the Knicks tax was too high or the Knicks have bigger fish to fry. Maybe Towns is on the way ? Maybe Valincunas in a trade. We sign Watanabe and Pat Bev for the bench ? And trade Obi for a first rounder tomorrow.

It’s all circumstantial I guess. There’s no one size fits all for trades. I personally wouldn’t want to deal Quickley for him. And another thing we don’t always consider; this is Brunson’s team. He used to be teammates with Porzingis. Maybe he wasn’t a fan of him and didn’t want him on the team.

I’d rather watch Zach Wilson start another 17 regular season games and stink up the joint again then watching the Knicks trade assets to bring back KP

Yeah, you still need to figure out what happens with him next year, but I don’t think you can just let that kind of talent and size go to a team like Boston.
