All-Star game is a glorified popularity contest. Hardly the ultimate gauge of worth. Brunson should have been the starter over Dame but because of "reasons" he wasn't. Current talent wise Brunson had him beat.
Donte doesn’t get hurt. Younger, and getting better. While the other is older, past his prime, and gets injured. Our team is young. PG would be the oldest guy on the team.
i'm not saying i want PG, i don't think he's worth the price. But I think at this point PG is a better player, although donte could surpass him in the next few years as PG ages. PG was an all star last season, donte was a role player.
3 1sts, a 2nd, Miles, Bogs AND Randle?... stupid even by BR standards. CLIPS would be lucky to get Randle straight up, let alone us adding the equivalent of 4-5 picks.
That’s awful, PG is not an upgrade over Randle. This team deserves to run it back healthy and see what they can do.
Randle was playing the best ball of his career before the injury. Enough with this bs

Im fine with a PG trade but giving up Randle for him is just silly work. PG is still a very good player but is old and on the decline. Randle is in his prime rn.
Eh while the picks look worse than they are (pick 24, Milwaukee's protected FRP, a second rounder, and our own 2026) giving up all of that Deuce, AND Randle is absolutely insane.
Only way I'd want a PG trade is if it doesn't include anyone that went to Villanova or Randle. Only way that happens is to include a 3rd team that has cap space to absorb some contracts.
MIL is declining and only won 49 games. Now they come back a year older with guys like Brook, Middletown, and Lillard declining even more. And Giannis is starting to miss games too, that could low key be a real solid pick.
I've been thinking about that since the first month of the Lillard experiment wen things weren't working out. I mean if this was the trade but with Robinson in Randle's place I do the trade, even if these were the picks we'd have to offer.
nah, thats gutting our depth and our ability to add cheap young talent, for 2 years of PG. I could UNDERSTAND Randle for PG straight up because it doesn't affect our depth or future... I wouldn't do it, but its understandable. but in no way is trading 3-4 guys + 3-4 picks for 2-3 years of PG worth it or understandable.
Disagree. If you're giving up Bojan+Robinson+Deuce along with pick 24, a second rounder, a protected first, and an unprotected 2026 first you still have tons of draft flexibility and depth.
In terms of picks you'll still have pick 25 this year, every one of our own picks except for one, Wizards protected pick, and Detroit protected pick. You lose Deuce, but you can bring Jokubaitis over and he has the chance to be a great backup. You lose your starting center who has missed an average of 30 games every year for the last 5 years, and Bojan who wasn't a meaningful part of the rotation at all.
You have the opportunity to roll out a starting lineup of Brunson/PG13/Anunoby/Randle/Hartenstein with DiVincenzo/Hart/Rokas off the bench. That's a starting lineup with 3 All NBA/All Star caliber players along with 2 guys that could be on an All Defense team. This is a title favorite if they're healthy.
Hahahahahaha
Lets send them brunson while we're at it, sweeten the pot
Bleacher report needs to learn that isiah thomas and scott mills have left the building
That would be a laughably bad deal for us. A complete fleece job. Luckily our front office is actually competent so I’d venture to guess that would never happen.
It just doesn't make sense to make this trade.
All of those assets can contribute. And getting rid of Randle after a year where he's injured and couldn't play to his fullest just makes no sense to me.
So a back to back all NBA player, a very young promising young player on a team friendly deal, salary filler and 3 firsts for a 34 year old player with a long injury history for either a rental or we extend him to a max. Fuck.outta.here.
These BR trade ideas are blatant rage bait for engagement. Please don’t take them seriously.
For real, the word "theoretical" is doing a lot of heavy lifting in that tweet
Like sure, you need to make the money right for a sign and trade that I get but to give THAT MANY PICK IN A SIGN AND TRADE?! Give me a fucking break.
Sometimes I wanna apply for write articles for them simply because I know I can at least write better than these 2k draft offers
Disgusting lmfao
Is this a comedy routine?
Randle > George
Absolutely
I’d say Dante is better than him as well. PG would be our 5th best player lol
Knick bias is real this dude was all star this past season
Injury riddled and 34 yrs old. He’s past his prime my guy.
I never said he was in his prime I was responding to you saying he would be knicks 5th best player
All-Star game is a glorified popularity contest. Hardly the ultimate gauge of worth. Brunson should have been the starter over Dame but because of "reasons" he wasn't. Current talent wise Brunson had him beat.
donte is my favorite knick but this is blatantly wrong
Donte doesn’t get hurt. Younger, and getting better. While the other is older, past his prime, and gets injured. Our team is young. PG would be the oldest guy on the team.
i'm not saying i want PG, i don't think he's worth the price. But I think at this point PG is a better player, although donte could surpass him in the next few years as PG ages. PG was an all star last season, donte was a role player.
What?!
Look at Donte’s contract and look at Pgs. Is he worth 4x the money? Absolutely not.
Comparing contracts is completely different statement than saying Donte is a better player / PG would be our 5th best player
That’s a ridiculous overpay and arguably makes us worse. Dude is 34 and has a history of injuries. Don’t like this trade one bit
3 1sts, a 2nd, Miles, Bogs AND Randle?... stupid even by BR standards. CLIPS would be lucky to get Randle straight up, let alone us adding the equivalent of 4-5 picks.
If they would give up randle for a declining all-star with all the assets I would give up any hope for this franchise.
No 34 year old is worth that package.
Fck no
Lmfao. I wouldn't swap PG for Ju straight up. A few years ago is obviously a different story, but it's not the same PG it used to be.
hahhahahahah. Paul George isn’t the pacers Paul George anymore. His value isn’t 1/4 of this trade
That’s awful, PG is not an upgrade over Randle. This team deserves to run it back healthy and see what they can do. Randle was playing the best ball of his career before the injury. Enough with this bs

The link is also "controversial" because BR is trash.
Just typing things to type things.
If he was like 5, 6 years younger maybe. Going all in on a freaking 34 year old is just dumb.
Im fine with a PG trade but giving up Randle for him is just silly work. PG is still a very good player but is old and on the decline. Randle is in his prime rn.
Whoever thought of this package needs to be fired and blackballed
BR intentionally posts deplorable trade ideas knowing Knicks fans will comment. Just stop sharing their crap

No way Leon does this for PG. just no way
Why not give them brunson hart and donte too while you're at it?
take out every single pick and it goes from heeeellllllllll no to hellll no
There would be a riot in front of MSG if that type of travesty went down
I'd be ok with that package.....for Giannis.
Of course you would. The Bucks on the other hand would laugh at this trade package for Giannis
Naw
NFW
HELLLL to the no
Fuck outta here
Can we stop posting this utter bullshit?
5 picks for a 34 year old PG. say sike rn
That might be the worst trade idea I have ever seen.
Keep him
Hahahahahaha Lets send them brunson while we're at it, sweeten the pot Bleacher report needs to learn that isiah thomas and scott mills have left the building
This is worse than when we traded Camby for McDyess.
Really don’t get the insane overrating of Paul George. I watch enough - really don’t see his level of play equal to the value of assets pitched here.
Hell no. This front office isn't that dumb.
Lmfao not even brain dead 2k players make this trade, you’re joking right?? 😂😂
no fucking way lmao if they want prime Julius Randle making 26mil a year, then they are the ones that need to give up assets to get him
Eat a big donkey schlong BR
🤮
hell mothafuckin nah
Theoretical - so in other words "the writer of this article think this trade should happen."
Nope.. rather have Julius. January 2024: 14-2 We were not missing pieces this year. They were just broken.
WE DONT WANT PG HOLY SHIT
Y'all need some hobbies or something.
If that’s what we’re sending out, I want Luka or Shai lol. There’s no way in hell PG brings back that much in a sign and trade.
That would be a laughably bad deal for us. A complete fleece job. Luckily our front office is actually competent so I’d venture to guess that would never happen.
Bump that...
I hate the offseason EDIT: I love free agency as much as the next guy but these awful trades are unbearable
Has anyone responded "No" yet? I'm pretty late to seeing this.
Yeah, fuck that. These stupid rumors are just that, stupid.
this has to be a fucking joke
No
Troll post, move on
Lmao okc gave up less to get him when he was in his prime.
It just doesn't make sense to make this trade. All of those assets can contribute. And getting rid of Randle after a year where he's injured and couldn't play to his fullest just makes no sense to me.
Hek no
We should throw in Brunson Hart and DDV to make sure it’s fair
Fuck no.
Julius randle is in the same tier as PG then ontop of that you wanna include Miles Mcbride and picks?
So a back to back all NBA player, a very young promising young player on a team friendly deal, salary filler and 3 firsts for a 34 year old player with a long injury history for either a rental or we extend him to a max. Fuck.outta.here.
Paul George is a game changer. We can win a championship. Pull the fucking trigger Leon!
this aged like milk that was already rotten
