BREAKING NEWS: Raptors trade OG Anunoby and Precious Achiuwa to the Knicks for RJ Barrett, Immanuel Quickley and a 2nd Round Pick

[Unbothered]

The Knicks will still be that middle of the road team in the East. This doesn't really move the needle for them, unless the belief is that they can attract a star or superstar with the cleared cap space but we all know the Knicks owner gonna self sabotage that like he did with KD and Kyrie and a few other free agency stars of the past.

Knicks now need to get rid of Randle...You ain't doing shyt with him as a core piece.

Barrett bout to drop 30/10 every night now

OG will probably hit the corner 3s that Barrett would clank off the back of the rim and play better defense too

They gon drive or fly to their respective new homes?

Paying quickley wouldnt have been wise for a bench guard. Same people that complained about spida and brunson being too small as a backcourt, think quick and brunson would have worked just fine. He's the exact kind of replaceable guard you can find every year

I still wanna know which 2 teams offered them 3 first round picks for him.

Memphis. It was Brooks and the picks

Bad trade for the Knicks giving up RJ when it seems like he was really starting to live up to his draft hype and arguably tied with Randle as being their second best player.

OG has become one of the most overrated players over the past few seasons. They probably could've gotten OG without giving up RJ, Anunoby doesn't make the Knicks better. They're still pretty much the same team after the trade.

You don't watch the Knicks saying shyt like this
He hasn't lived up to shyt
fukk outta here that's near insulting making up shyt like that

there ain't any better way to know who's casual anyone who's gassing RJ at this point hasn't made it through a half-time segment in years

RJ can stink it up at home I guess.

From the little bit of the Knicks game I've seen, he seemed to be solid. OG is overrated to me.

Not a casual, just not a Knicks fan. I don't think OG is any better than RJ. They're somewhat equal which is why this trade isn't a game changer for Knicks outside of cleared cap space that'll likely be wasted since the owner is notorious for self sabotaging the Knicks.

How much does this trade improves the Knicks (what I'd hoped to assume) championship aspirations or at the very least be looked at as an actual contender and not just fodder for teams like Boston, Milwaukee, Philly, and (to a certain extent) Miami to run through come playoff time?
