  • The New York Knicks acquired Mikal Bridges in a shocking trade on the eve of the 2024 NBA Draft. How does the blockbuster deal impact the Sixers' ability to contend over the next few seasons? Should the move impact what the Sixers look to do this summer? And what impact does New York's trade have on the availability of other stars, like Paul George, now that the Knicks have used up their trade assets?

      You gotta forgive people who react like that. They don't understand the mechanics of running a basketball team. Who were the Knicks going to trade those picks for? And after the draft the Knicks still have six first round picks. Let's say Mikal Bridges is the third option, who with any of those 5 first round pics were going to fill that role? Again you have to forgive Philly fans, they're still stuck trying to make the process work.

  • @xman333

    Derek most of those picks will be trash picks because they'll be late 1st round selections. Also, the Knicks have a real front office who have made great moves in order to get Bridges. Plus Bridges & Bogy salaries matched so the Knicks didn't lose any cap space which means they can still sign OG. Keep trying to down play this move but it was smart for the Knicks because their front office actually knows what they're doing unlike Morey & Brand.

    Yes the Knicks paid a lot for him but they had the luxury of doing that unlike the sixers and the reality is, if they decide to cash in on a superstar eventually they can actually trade guys like hart, divencenzo and Mikal along with the remaining draft capital. That said their plan is probably keep the young core with Anunoby together.

But they’re not lebron and they don’t have lebron.

    Plus these guys won a championship in college. The core knows what it takes.. no brainer move by NY and I'm not suprised this move happened.
    As far as the 76ers. We are really close to thinking.. should we be under new ownership? I'm sure some feel that way already however I I wouldn't be surprised if this eventually becomes the narrative. All these bad moves over the last 10 years have happened under this ownership.
