Rank The Assets (NYK)

That **** makes no sense and is not correct.

Portland got New Orleans 1st in 2022 if it landed within 5-14 in the McCollum deal. It did not and it conveyed to Milwaukee’s 2025 1st 1-4 protected.

They then traded that pick to Detroit for Jerami Grant who then traded it to the Knicks.

Why would Detroit trade Jerami Grant for a pick that would only convey if it landed 1-4 in 2025. That’s just not correct information.
I would agree what you are saying makes more sense, but I would have to see it on another website.
 
I don't think Barrett is available - Knicks are happy to give up any other player with guys like Fournier a given because of salary.

In terms of draft picks, I think the Knicks four actual unprotected picks are the baseline. My guess is Ainge wants those and probably another 2023 pick with the intention of flipping it to a 2024 pick with no protections so we can be in that draft. I have a hard time believing Knicks would forfeit six #1's but would love to be proven wrong.
Well if no Barrett, they can f there family memebers. It start there and adds
 
barrett isn't very good. and for a young player who is supposed to be getting better, he was actually worse in his third year than he was in his second.
Well to me he clearly isnt a #1 guy, maybe not even a #2, but if you put him on a better team he'd probably look much better. Knicks roster was just very lack luster in terms of creation ability and passing.

I’m not sure how you can say he isn’t very good. He didn’t get worse either he didn’t shoot it from 3 as well is all. We can work with that.

I'd agree with this take. Barrett's three point shooting is suspect, but he's a clear top echelon guy on a contender and those don't grow on trees.

But I'd let the Knicks keep him just to get more picks as they see him pairing with DM/Brunson and making for a pretty good team.
 
23/25/27/29 1sts from Knicks
24/26/28 pick swap 1sts
23 Dallas 1st
23 Detroit 1st
23 Washington 1st
25 Milwaukee 1st

Then we will take Quickley/Toppin/Grimes and salary filler. They can keep Barrett if they send us all of their picks.

yeah, he did get worse. TS% his second year was 53% - which is still bad. His third year it dropped to 51% which is near the basketball mendoza line - we'll call it the Elfrid line for now. and he was the same way at duke. he's just a guy who likes to shoot a lot and take bad shots despite the fact he isn't very good at making them.

it's just who he is - at least who he has been to this point in his basketball career. let somebody else take the gamble that he becomes a different player some day.
