Mikal Bridges to the Knicks Changes EVERYTHING...

- Опубліковано 28 чер 2024
- Suddenly on the night before the NBA Draft, the New York Knicks acquired Mikal Bridges in a trade with the Brooklyn Nets in exchange for a ton of draft capital and Bojan Bogdanovic. It's a shocking move to say the least. This pairs him up with Jalen Brunson, Julius Randle, Donte Divincenzo, Mitchell Robinson, and Josh Hart in New York to form one of the most formidable rotations in the entire NBA. Not to mention, if they're able to retain OG Anunoby and / or Isaiah Hartenstein in Free Agency. They've established themselves as a bonafide second best team in the East behind the Boston Celtics, and they may not be done yet. Additionally, the Houston Rockets seem to be trying to get Phoenix Suns picks in order to eventually pursue Kevin Durant or Devin Booker. So, let's talk about it.

suns fans still miss u mikal...
😢
Him and Johnson was actually the reason I stayed a suns fan 😢
i miss the twins still 💔
Philly too 😂
He’s in good hands now ❤
I disagree with the assumption that this is a deal that you make if you think you’re gonna lose OG, honestly it’s quite the opposite. You’re now showing him, “Hey, we’re not gonna rely on you for 48 minutes of elite defense in the playoffs again because we got someone who can help you out” He’s probably more likely to sign now than he was before they had him. Health has always been a concern with him and we just got an Iron Man.
I don't think that OG is going to be all happy with this addition, the reason that he got out of Toronto was to be a more prominent part of the offense, there is a chance he walks, minimal chance but there is, the real problem is that Hartenstein is almost 100% gone if OG comes back
@@difting_away 💯 part of trading for Bridges over PG is having that cap space for OG. Hartenstein TBD
The whole reason OG left Toronto is because ge wanted a bigger role on offense this deal is gonna have them relay on him even less now on offense and Mikal kinda does what og does and is a bit better on offense when he’s not a number one option so this definitely not the best deal to keep og
@@unholyshinboi it’s amazing what winning and $40-$45 mil per year will do for ya
@@cadfael3257Wanting to be part of an offense on a losing team that didn’t really have solid offensive players makes sense but he’s a serious title contender here, it really just comes up to what he values more at the end of the day.
What a huge (!) haul for Durant in the end. Brooklyn maximised the Durant deal.
9 first rounders Noah clowney, cam Johnson and 3 2nds is an insane haul
Looking back, the fact they got him only for his salary and bought their future (and rectified the harden trade in the process) is genuinely impressive
The fact he forgot about josh hart shows you how deep the Knicks are
My Brooklyn nets have 17 firsts over the next 7 with our pick control. Beauty
As a Rockets fan, I am so happy they’re in rebuild mode right now I pray to God they trade to all their good players so they can continue to give the Rockets good picks
Danny Ainge: Hi
@@dsbeats5657 did you not pay attention to the video or trades? Rockets no longer have the nets picks, the nets are free to rebuild and the rockets get non of their picks
@@dsbeats5657So I guess you didn’t bother to watch the rest of the trade details. Houston gave Brooklyn their picks back in exchange for the Suns and Mavs picks.
But we’re absolutely garbage rn 😅
I think they’re keeping OG and they made this move because they know he’s coming back. He was always gonna opt out because he’s worth more than that and the Knicks knew that. OG also knows that he’s gonna be so close to winning a chip if that matters to him and it should.
OG already got a ring
He literally moved across the street #LGK💙🧡
Every time a new video is out and he says “What’s going on yall it’s cone”, I always yell out “HI CONE!!” It’s awesome.
Yes sir! Love all your videos! Much love from China. As a Nets fan, this is a great haul for Mikal.
Thank you for the support!
If Knicks can keep Hartenstein and Annouby plus retain there bench depth. They are instant title contenders idk a team as deep as them in the league. Celtics are more top heavy and have a better starting lineup but depth wise nobody can match the Knicks. If they retain Annanouby and Hartenstein.
OG wants to leave already been made clear and Hartenstein seems to be available as well
@@kjjr3270when has og made it clear he wants to leave?
Hartenstein is the product of tibs system
Not an over pay at all, this is the cost to get a 2 way player, still in his 20s, from a city rival, and still under contract. Tons of teams were interested, mikal was going somewhere, it was just who could offer the most.
Bro what. Kyrie went for half as much and he is twice the player.
@@karlliebknecht2987 kyrie went for half as much because hes always injured, he averages like 50 games a year, mikal is an ironman and always plays. He makes more 34m to mikals 24m. Hes older, 34 to mikals 27. Doesnt play defense and hes a head case. Not a good comparison at all. Your forgetting he poutted his way out of cleveland, boston and brooklyn back to back to back? You forgetting teams were ready to black ball kyrie for that amazon movie nonsense?
@@vindigga6 You know the world is full of delusional dudes that need a social life and a woman when someone compares Mikal Bridges to Kyrie...in a SUPERIOR way. You cannot be taken serious about ANYTHING. Wow. Not a team on earth would choose Mikal over Kyrie. That's insane.
@@marcelmarshall4240 I will say, Kyrie majorly rehabbed his value in the Mavs. He was reviled in NYC lol
They're keeping OG. They're stacked.
Anunoby just signed with the Knicks before the draft last night!
My mouth just dropped😭
I think the warriors should try to go after cam Johnson and Dorian now. This would allow the warriors to dump off their high payroll players who aren't contributing the level they want while also giving the nets some draft capital.
This team is stacked
Id like to see them keep OG . I've been his fan since IU days. If they can get Ware that would make them my 2nd favorite team behind the Celtics... Maybe my favorite even.
It's nuts KD is the best journey man that the NBA have ever seen
No, that's Jeff Green.
Nah, Leon doesn’t make lateral moves. He’s not making this deal if he’s not sure he’s re-signing OG.
Wow! I heard about this trade from this video! Awesome!. The Knicks are really going to challenge the Celtics in the East. I'm not a fan of either team, but I really like the Knicks team construction! Hart as a sixth man is stacked!
@@Imaf2020 lol Celtics still sweeping them
The Celtics and Knicks are a tier above the East rn, The sixers have an opportunity to make some noise if they make the rights moves, the Bucks have Doc rivers so they are tied with the Pacers for me. Can’t wait to see what Daryl Morey can Cook up.
Celtics are in a tier of their own.
NBA players talk all the time about how hard it is to go back to back, after having that sense of accomplishment there’s naturally a little bit less of a drive. I think the Knicks are gonna be better than them
@@conorwatchvidz If your banking on the celtics losing their “drive” for your reason of knicks being “better” your in for another long season.
@@sosa4750When brown and "we did it" Tatum get locked by OG and bridges you won't be saying none of this lol
@@sosa4750they have a slight Edge but if both teams are healthy, The Knicks will prevail
The chemistry is undeniable Knicks will be tough gotta add more bench players keep Randle, i hart, & OG wouldn't mind seeing Malcom brogdon at backup point guard if we can get him
Win for both sides!
Giant L for NY
Danny Ainge, Brad Steven, Sam Presti: Watch it disappear
The amount of picks the nets got is absurd
If needs can somehow keep og then I believe they can challenge Celtics for a chip. But they got to try to stop getting injured so often
Thibbs needs to stop running his players into the ground. Hart and Brunson were literally playing every minute in the playoffs. Thats why they got hurt
I had to watch this twice..because the focal point is "Whats going on in OG'S HEAD now...hmmm...funny if youre about money?!!!...well OG move around...but if you sacrifice 5 million and able to take over the champs...Well something to think about..Randle?...did somebidy mention Randle?!!!!!...hmmm...its early....
hear me out,
the Orlando Magic have to create their own playing style and identity! I hope they trade for Markkanen. That would make them an unique team. Good luck to teams trying to guard Franz Wagner, Markkanen and Paolo.
The only reason the Magics were in the Playoff is because MIami and Philly were playing with injuries. That could happen again, but if it doesn't. The Magic's ceiling is the Play-In tournament. Good luck getting out of the first round ... if you go that far. Lol.
@@jensenatThey literally took the cavs to 7 as the 3rd youngest team in the nba with no playoff experience.
@@jensenat
haha, true for last season. Miami and Philly were injured.. The Magic are still young and a rising team. Banchero is a monster and Franz as well.
They need some pieces, but if we add Markkanen we are top 5 in the east for sure
People really don't know how good Boston is right now...
Knicks roster deep af but they still only have 1 real creator on offense
OG to thunder maybe now it’s definitely more possible I will say tho it’s obviously a massive overpay but New York I guess felt like this was the only thing to do and try to win a championship right now and deal with the future later
How u gonna put the knicks in the same sentence as the Celtics dummy?
A ring now would be worth 10 years of garbage.
As long as he is willing to sign for under 30 million
nets finally did it!
Pascal was already extended cause the pacers gave him the maximum amount possible. OG is not a clear max player. I really hope the Knicks won’t NEED to max him to get him to stay but they will if they need to
I really don't understand the trade by the houston's perspective. Did we just trade the right to swap ou pick with the (maybe) first pick of the 2025 draft (from BKN), or i'm trippin ? Someone can explain me ?
Pretty much the Houston Rockets are hedging their bet that the Phoenix Suns are going to implode which honestly the way things are looking is pretty likely for Phoenix or if the suns want to trade Kevin Durant they might just take less if it means they get their own draft picks back because remember they only have two tradable assets, which is Kevin Durant/Devin Booker because Bradley Beal is has a no trade clause and almost no team will ever accept his contract that he is not worth so honestly this is a pretty good deal for both teams .
@@dsbeats5657 yes, i see it, and maybe they didn't trade Bridges if they don't land thoses picks back.
Knicks got 04 piston type vibes
those suns picks could be great for the rockets even if they don’t want kd, the suns are 1 injury away from blowing it all up
As good as Mikal is this move doesn’t move the needle for them. Gave up wayyy too much for a third option imo.
Hi cone, i just wanted to say i really like this haul for brooklyn
Saved their franchise in just one night
Hello mate i really want to edit your videos at high level mate.
Cam Johnson and Doe Doe are next
Isnt Brunson a free agent whats his status?
What will Thibs do with so many players who should get minutes?
Give em all minutes like he always somehow does.
@erdemeebilgee3584 naw. He overplays his starters and they tend to get hurt.
klay + cp3 for OG? possible?
Brooklyn fleeced the knicks
nah, picks don't guarantee anything. It all depends on which way the little ping pong ball falls. Knicks need to win now so those picks weren't helping them at all. I'd say both teams got what they needed.
Nets lost
@@RBROEDITZrofl cope
They are most definitely going to be offering a huge contract for og
There would be no point to get mikal if they lose og
I think the Knicks should move on from Randle. They should try to get the salary cap relief they need that way. I would rather have Hartenstein than Randle on their roster. Trading Randle also creates more playing time for Hart and Divincenzo. I just don't think you need Randle chucking shots at the 4 when you have this many good wings.
Magic should go for Cam Johnson. They need a shooter and he's big in size(pause)
I think as much as it is a very expensive deal for Mikal, we need to step back and think about the Rudy Gobert overpay here. Despite paying more than people thought was a good idea, it made them from a fun up and coming team, into a potential defensive powerhouse that can go deep in the playoffs.
The Knicks were already a deep team and really good, Bridges can certainly pull them over the top. If they can somehow hold on to OG, they will be a contender easily. This is like the Boston Celtics team in how good their starters are, except it has a great bench, a ton of hustle and a really good leading scorer and playmaker leading the team.
Also, I'm somewhat happy for the Nets too, as they are finally fully into rebuilding mode and they are looking like the next OKC Thunder with the amount of treasure they are gathering. Now they need to hit on draft picks over the coming seasons and they can go places.
Thank you for the video young man, you may sleep now
i dont know why people keep saying bridges puts the knicks over the top.
if they lose OG... it wont matter.
Dude they gotta get og resigned. There is literally not a better 3 and d wing duo then mikal and og.
They then probs have to trade randle in order to resign hartenstein.
They then should go after someone like dorian finney smith or try to sign tobias harris to take randles spot at 4. Harris is an ok shooter ok dribbler ok defender.
Brunson mikal og harris hartenstein with hart dante robinson off the bench is a really really solid looking team.
Changes nothing. Knicks won't even be the 2 seed this year. Last year was their best chance. 48 wins and a 6 seed coming their way. Seeing 💚
Agree. It’s mid on top of mid. In the playoffs seven players play. 💚☘️
Had to dig too deep for a real take, he’s not that good and won’t even keep up the mid numbers he has on NY
The nets only win in this trade if they actually make something happen with those picks Lets see. I will trade security for draft picks any day.
Just gotta get rid of randle and they might really be ready to go for it
KD doesn't like to request trades😑 he just wants to hoop
Hes known for requesting trades and ringchasing
as a Nets fan it always bothered me whenever I saw people clowning and hating on Sean Marks. Obviously the past 5 years werent great, a lot of ugly stuff happened and the team fell apart but in my opinion (just a fan on the internet) it was never on Sean Marks. He built the team back from the disastrous KG trade, brought in KD and made a legit championship roster. It fell apart because the organization dint manage their stars well, fired Kenny Atkinson (at the request of KD) and Joe Tsai being a dumbass.
Nah he fumbled a championship team When Kyrie and KD were injured in the 19-20. The nets could’ve tanked and got a lottery pick. Also missed out on a chance to get Jrue Holiday when he left the pelicans when one of the biggest problems was their defense. Traded Jarrett Allen away when they needed size then got bullied by Giannis in the playoffs . Hired Steve Nash kept him for too long. Then Traded for Harden. When it comes to rebuilding a team he’s pretty good but building a competent championship roster he’s absolutely terrible. The nets should sell the team Joe Tsai sucks too. Everything I hate about the Nets my Thunder are great and this is coming from a Brooklyn resident.
@@dimitribrutus3719 I disagree that the Nets should have tanked 19-20 but I dont think that would have mattered in the long term. Hiring Steve Nash was a mistake but that was because KD wanted Kenny gone and he got his wish. I agree that trading Allen away was a mistake but again, KD wanted his buddy DJ starting center and KD wanted Harden too and the organization gave KD what he wanted. Either way you can’t really say Giannis bullied us when we din’t even have Harden or Kai on the floor and it still went 7 games and OT. No team will make it far in the playoffs without 2 of their top players. They would have definitely won the 2022 championship if it wasn’t for Ky and Hardens injuries. All this to say is that there is a lot of blame to go around and Marks isn’t perfect by any means but to say that him alone fumbled a championship is absolutely ridiculous
And also yes, fuck Joe Tsai.
Big ouchie for the Rockets. Hopefully they go big and get desperate now for a big ticket. Presti is sleeping good tonight
Unpopular take but the knicks are either headed in the direction of Phinoex or the direction of Boston and there’s no in between
fasho pheonix, core is way to old
@@jasperjackson8842everyone in the knicks core is 26 or 27 years old what are you talking about
@@VladimirMickel boston won had the chip with their stars in year 26. Knicks are going into year 28 with a much worse team.
@@jasperjackson8842 much worse lmao. That is a joke
I think you’re opinions really bad. Also, the Knicks are just way younger. And don’t have all of their money allocated to three players also helps that they have a solid bench unlike the suns who had some of the worst bench depth in the NBA.
It changes nothing next year. Banner 19 incoming☘️☘️
Divencenzo would obviously go to the bench
Knicks roster is too undersized any there not winning anything as long as Julius Randle is there and Jalen Brunson isnt a number one or 2 on a championship team
Im not gonna lie broklyn won that trade new york Takes L thats to much bridges those picks lol
Real take
Knicks definitely overpaid. That’s the kind of package you put together for a superstar player, not Mikal Bridges.
Worst trade in years. Makes Rudy look like a good deal
So the Rockets' big plan is to bring in a 36 year old KD who is already very much showing signs of aging. Like at this point o his career KD is just not a 3 level scorer, he can basically never get to the rim and shoots like 3 threes per game. That paired with his constant injuries just means that despite the NBA media pretending otherwise KD is just not nearly the player he used to be and his one-dimensional game can and has been exploited in the playoffs.
I do understand where ur coming from but 27-7-5 on 52-41-86, 63% TS, on mainly jumpers.
Played elite defense all year.(Even if he's not known for his defense)
Played 75 games.
At age 35.
I mean that's still pretty good and I think the reason why the suns overall sucked is because their team overall was just not good at all. eps when ur asking the 3 stars to play defense which isn't really what Beal, Booker, and KD are known for but if you can put KD in a squad like HOU or OKC he's still pretty damn good.
Yeah facts KD was the only consistent player in the series against the wolves it’s everyone else that was ass
@@LouisVirigl12 Phoenix said they are running that team again, this means Houston's plan is to hope to get a 37 years old KD for the 2025-2026 season, unless they get him this season before the trade deadline (doubtful). This is insane. It would make more sense, if Phoenix is selling after this season, to go after Devin Booker.
I don’t think that’s their plan. I think their plan is to try to get booker and honestly, Phoenix is running out of time because they’re stuck with Bradley Beal there’s almost no way this team can get better and even if Houston doesn’t one of those guys guess what they’re going to have really good draft picks because the suns are gonna be awful so it’s a win-win situation for because I guarantee you that the sun wanted to rebuild they’re gonna try to trade with Houston first and honestly might take less draft picks if it means getting their own picks back
What's wrong with the Nicks?
The only thing holding the Knicks back now is Tibs by the time they make it to the playoffs his players r going to be limping in again with all the mins he makes them play
I can tell you’ve studied the numbers
I hear you think we losing OG but his agent is Leon rose son. Trust me he gonna resign with hs
THIBS ABOUT TO RUIN HIS CONSECUTIVE STREAK OF NOT MISSING GAMES DO TO INJURY
Rockets keep 2024 pick and 2027 swap from nets. Getting the Suns picks in 27 and 29 should be good. If Rockets do trade for KD i will buy a pitchfork and riot the streets of downtown Houston, He's Fkn 36....🤬
In my opinion, I think this just means Julius Randle is out with Josh Hart proving he could play the four with his excellent rebounding and his defense and if they could at least get some solid role-players /draft picks I think that’s a huge upgrade because I don’t think Randall really fits this team anymore yes I do think they overpaid for bridges but if they can get something for Randall I think this is a really good trade for both teams honestly .
Knicks still getting swept by the Celtics.
SMH Og is an unrestricted free agent.. the other players u named were not… they got EXTENDED …
ihart is also an UFA - unlikely to sign both without trading mitch first
🥱 Celtics in 4
pacers got pascal for way less and i think pascal is quite a bit better than mikal
I don’t know who og think he is, he’s asking for so much and can’t stay healthy. Even when the raptors won the championship he was injured idk why he’s asking for so much.
what is this teams starting 5 if they can keep OG? … this team is absolutely loaded
JB
Bridges
OG
Randle
Mitch
@@YardOut idk man, divencenzo as a starter was killing it. we know Hart is 6th man but he is also a solid player. I guess it’s a good problem to have
@@carterharris6561 Dvo is going back to the position we signed him to play and Bridges is going to give us his production and then some. Bench instantly upgraded. Great problem that isn’t a problem.
That wasn’t a “massive haul”.
Y’all don’t know nothing about basketball. Y’all just have access to cameras and WiFi signals.
Other teams were already offering the nets 4unprotected first round picks for Mikal Bridges plus young talent. The reason the Knicks gave them the picks is so they keep their team in tact.
The Knicks second and third string lead them to the second string in the East and to within one game of the Eastern Conference finals. They did this missing 4 starters one of which is an all nba player meaning top 15 player. Boston wouldn’t have been in the finals if the Knicks was healthy. Knicks was better than them.
The Knicks still have all their draft picks in today’s draft two of them are first rounders.
Going forward they still have 5 first in the next 3 drafts after this one.
Let me also say this the nets didn’t want to make this trade. Bridges held their feet to the fire 🔥
Knicks got better but still do not beat the Celtics.
Or Philly or Milwaukee or Indiana
OG is probably gone. Bridges has a better defense rating, last year which was surprising. Randle may be traded and Isaih prob gone. I see Knicks going after another center/forward.
Doesnt change thibs playing his players huge mins til they get injured
lol you think this makes them the second best over the heat and bucks lol and they can’t beat the cs
Knicks were just second seed without Randle and several other key players.The Heat? 🤣 Are you okay?
@@BrooklynBalla heat aren’t a regular season team what about the playoffs when healthy tho?
