Kinda sorta makes sense for both teams. Philly need to replace Green's contact and his is not guaranteed. Get a distance shooter who can play backup PG minutes cause you know that Harden hammy hill keep him out for weeks at a time. Maybe Knicks have to throw in the likes of #42 or some future second.

Unless it nets the Knicks a bonafide star, 1000% against trading Burks in any manner.

Burks is the type of player that teams need to succeed. You just don't give him away for a "draft" pick. So Philly can show all the interest in the world but the Knicks better tell them to kick rocks (unless this is part of a package of Maxey )

I don't think you thought this through far enough.

In the class that Maxey was drafted, he was picked #21. Saddiq Bey was #19. Last year, Ayo Dosunmu was #38 and Herb Jones was #35. And you don't think the #23 is good enough?

Playoff teams hunt for guys that are waived first and foremost.

i would definitely do this deal. Love Burks but 76ers see more value in him and we should see more value in 23 -- which might also enable us to move up if packaged with 11

relatedly if 76ers see that much value in Burks i wonder if packaging him and 11 to Sacramento in some way makes sense since they're supposedly looking for win now types

Maybe the sarcasm went over you? It happens.
It also opens up cap space for us.

I thought knick players have no trade value? LOL.

Burks was a good knick and if can net a 23rd pick a good Ex-knick!
If Utah wants 4 1st picks, we can do that, Dallas as part of two. One of ours has to be a swap though, and there has to be top 5 protections on one as well. And, RJ is not part of the deal. He is part of our future.

I been saying knicks are deep and have much to trade with. This is just part of it. A small part. If Thibs had Burkes train to play pg some he added value to him and extended his career.

This should be interesting. Kenny is who I wanted to hire to coach our young team. Should be fun to figure out if I was right or dead wrong.

I was pro Kenny as well but I don't think you are going to find out if you were dead wrong or not as Charlotte has different personel than we do and did at the time. He has an elite, young pg to run his offensive principles and I think a really good offensive team got even better on that end. One of the biggest issues in Charlotte last year was on the defensive end, so if Atkinson is going to be successful, he needs to emphasize the defensive side of the ball as well.

You make some very good points. I am hoping that Quick can become our elite young pg. Chances are that won't happen but I am going to cling to that hope.

Its possible but we won't know for sure until he gets the minutes and the confidence from his coach.

Impossible to stop. Celtics big mistake was trying to get into a 3 point shooting contest w the best. They need to take good 3s but attack the basket. Good job by gs d last night playing 2 big. They caused havoc at rim

Would do that trade in a heartbeat

Kenny was not right for that Nets team that seemingly changed over night. Not that the results were there with Nash, but thats not on coaching style either. But Kenny got paid and waited for a good situation to come up.

The Hornets are in a prime position to make the. Next move into the playoffs and still young enough to adapt to Atkinsons rigid style. Only a shallow impulsive thinker would compare him and thibs two years apart with entirely two different rosters and try to stand up and do a “I told you so”. IF they can retain Miles Bridges and Lamelo continues to grow the Hornets are in a good spot going forward. If not traded and reasonably healthy they need to figure a way to blend in Lamelo as primary ball handler and move Haywood into off it more. That will interesting. Haywood contract is not easily moved. Might add him to Phil’s “show me a bad contract” list. He did play 78 games after his horrific ankle break season where he needed to shake the rust but regressed to 48 games last season.

OKC gets to punt one of its picks while moving to the salary floor. Denver saves money and has a chance to bring in cheap talent. WE could've given them Kemba back and it would've achieved the same
thing
