Last year you lost on your "Brunson is a max player" projection. This year you're going to low.

thinking of Haliburton I am thinking more and more we cant avoid a Sac situation where the simple truth is IQ/Brunson play the same position and it makes more sense to move one than play them both.

IQ is my fav player so I do NOT want him gone. We are gonna get a LOT of calls on him and have some tough choices to make

I think the Sac situation is different. Hal and Fox didn't play well together, and the numbers support this. That trade was more chemistry and it worked out for both teams. JB and IQ do mesh. I won't rule out a possible IQ trade, but I don't see chemistry on the court being the driving force.

they do mesh... and I have no problem keeping IQ. However if McBride emerges and Grimes levels up you have Brunson/IQ/McBride/Grimes and Hart/RJ only playing SF because someone has to. That's a glut.

We can afford to run these guys back. There's really no pressure, but I dont see being able to play the guys we want as much as we want and where we want.

Fish, you really should be banned for suggesting we trade IQ!

I don't see a problem with having them together - there are enough minutes for them to get between PG and SG. Being undersized doesn't seem to be an issue for IQ as far as guarding players - at least I haven't seen it.

I think you will agree that if anyone should be on the outside looking in as far as this teams future, it's mr. 30% on efg Mr. Canada, RJ Barrett.

When we get to the play offs, I thinking having two lethal attacking players like IQ & JB can be a difference maker as defenses tighten and points become harder to find.

Still think this is not an issue for the foreseeable future.

He's under rookie contract for next year.

He'd have to take the one year QO the 2024-2025 season (and play for the Knicks) over the security of a 10 figure contract to become a UFA and sign with someone else in 2025-2026.

At which time Brunson might only be signed for that season anyway (we'll see).

The runway could be cleared if not only a starting role but the knicks starting PG role is what he wants.

And no reason he can't start anytime starting next year if he earns it.

Well he will be starting at PG probably next several games. I’d be very careful with Brunson’s wrist

Yep,I agree with you. He is better than Grimes and RJ.

1. Orlando (Pablo, Franz, Carter, Fultz, pick) - this is a real concern you would take the first two over anyone on the roster and Carter is blossoming
2. Toronto (Barnes, OG, Pascal)
3. Rockets & Spurs (if they win the lottery)
4. Jazz (Larry, Kessler)

He’s not coming off the bench if he’s averaging 20+ as a starter. It’s a nice problem to have finally, but Grimes might need to go the bench. The ball really moves when IQ is out there. He’s getting Brunson money and his energy makes him a fan favorite anywhere he goes.
