I don't understand the complaining from the Knicks fans, they're in a win now, especially with how Brunson took a paycut for them. I don't like that they had to give up depth and a pick but I still think it's a net positive. I don't get the trade for the twolves tho, I don't think Randell fits well on their offense and as contenders the pick doesn't make up for that imo. Could be wrong I'm kinda a casual
@@wholooksathandles KAT's contract was taking up so much room. And with the clauses in his contract, it was going to become more and more expensive to keep him, too expensive for the T-Wolves to consider affording. The Knicks can afford it. Getting Randle and DiVicenzo who combined don't take up KAT's contract s pretty decent.
@@jesseminnema2999Yeah but they could've ran it back this szn, the owner didn't want to pay, which is especially a problem since this was the most successful they've been in however long. Feels like the owner saying id rather be a second round out and save money and the fans can f themselves
Pelicans definitely could have put together a reasonable trade package surrounding Ingram in order to get the stretch 5 they desperately need. possibly including CJ in the deal.
YEEEES!. I love this trade for us Nuggets fans. Now we won't have to worry about Naz Reid coming off the bench and murdering us. Now he's the starter and he gonna be match up with AG
0:35 in terms of anyone bingo card - i disagree slightly only because i knew minnesota was gonna roll off of KAT bc of the money and i knew knicks were gonna send Randle out bc it wouldn’t work with the nova knicks but if u would have told me that this was the swap i would have laughed
when i looked down at my phone last night seeing the tweet the first min it came out i stared at my phone for 30 mins in shock and in hatred as a Brooklyn nets fan...
Again New York fans get emotionally attached to players & they overvalue there players like Daniel Jones, Derek Jeter, Dante, Chad Pennington. New Yorkers would rather lose with certain players than win without them.
@@ThunderMan2 yes please tell me more about how you know what's gonna happen, I've been waiting to hear about your wonderful and insightful analysis of this game. Truly you are a basketball genius and you should be a head coach in the NBA
Sucks seeing KAT traded, Ik not everyone loves him but he’s been the star of this team for my whole fandom. That being said I love Divincenzo, and NAW (if he doesn’t get moved) for the development of Dillingham. Just put great defenders and catch and shooters by him
I was actually waiting for Rudy to start analyzing some of your takes, because I think Nick edited himself in to do something like that fairly recently.
Mikal was Squidward watching from his window last season. Now it's Donte's turn. 😬 I'd be pissed if I was in Brunson's shoes. Taking that paycut to make the Nova Knicks happen only to be broken up before a single game for KAT. 😂
Knicks keeping nba media fed this offseason with blockbuster trades on each end of the offseason 😂. But really towns adds more defense and shooting to the starting lineup while ideally cutting out the 5+ turnovers per game randle was known for. Also KAT won’t have to be the second option on the knicks like he was in minnesota
Nah I think we bring Randle off the bench we start Mike donte ant Jaden and Rudy that’s a insane defense with shooting playmaking interior defense we basically have no real hole if need be we could take out donte and move Naz to the 4 to go big but that I think is our best lineup and Julius really is at best our 7th man
Don’t love Randle. Think we should try to trade him for Anfernee Simons. Could be the shot creator wolves need. Puts Naz is the starting lineup. Could be good with Conley being 78 years old and Bob Dylan being unproven yet.
If KAT plays as well as he can, the Knicks will have the best record in the East (if he doesn't... well, they're still a fucking good team, but he needs to show up for them to neatly leapfrog the Celtics). Meanwhile with Rudy, the Wolves don't necessarily "need" KAT - the two played fine off each other, but I think Randle should work out ok in that lineup, and DiVincenzo (and Bates-Diop, but mostly Donte) gives the Wolves needed depth, and can spell their 37 year old point guard. I like having 2 bigs (as long as one can shoot) and think more highly of KAT than Timberwolves fans do. I do think this could work out really well for both teams; especially once Robinson is healthy again. He won't give you championship defense at the 5; but he will give you championship offense, and if you get the lead with KAT you can sub him out for Mitch.
@@romeowhite8380 I think you were a top team yesterday. If KAT averages 20 and 8, like he has the past 3 years, and if he gets his blocks back up to 1+ per game, you're THE team to beat. I like the depth this gives the Wolves, but I LOVE this trade for the Knicks (and hate it for the Bucks lolsob)
Dude....I am PRAYING that Minnesota decides to start Conley/Donte/Edwards/McDaniels/Goebert against Dallas. It would be the easiest 4 game sweep in Dallas history.
I agree with basically everything said here. I think one problem Minnesota had is that they really had no ability to get a bucket besides Ant. I guess the logic is they get more shot creation with Randel and Devo.
If a Hall of Famer like Al Horford who has a ton of playoff experience and is a cultural differencemaker can come off the bench, I think an underachieving playoff bum like Julius Randle can come off the bench too
I think you can only trade Randle in a one for one trade because of minnesota being in the 2nd apron. I don't think the league would allow multiple players for Randle. As far as trading for Kevin Durant they could only trade gobert bu I don't think that's within the 10% salary match.
I'm happy for the Knicks. I'll be even happier to see Boston getting smoked in the playoffs in 7 months. I'm happiest for Dallas, who now has one less team to be concerned about in the West.
why is everyone acting like this is shocking on the wolves end? They had a decision to make. The 2nd apron would severely limit what they can do during ants prime.
Ive never seen a mid-range shot Randal took that LOOKED like it was gonna go in. Hes got that unnecessary hitch and fade away now and its even more ugly. To me he's this generations Antwon Walker.
Huge fan of the work you've been putting in lately, these longer vids are great. Good takes, will be interesting to see how KAT fits in NY, but bummed we didn't get to see the full Nova Knicks
I don't see a trade for Randle that much, i mean... Randle, his problem is that he doesnt change how he does and the problem is that that doesnt fit the Wolves offense. In defense he can do what Kat does and leave Gobert just roaming the paint, he strong and have long arms so the problem is not in defense, is on offense.
the trade is very good both ways. wolves desperately needed a competent creator, after ant it was crickets. thats why they drafted. no randle isnt great but hes still pretty good. yeah the spacing is clunky, but it was going to be scary next season and running it back this year made little sense. try something new. randle also only has one healthy playoff series.
Hot take tl;dr: great trade but it doesn't matter. Despite one team being in the conference finals 4 months ago and the other nearly getting there, this trade doesn't change the fact that neither will win the chip next year, even if both teams may have gotten better.
as a knicks fan this is very much so a wait and see trade. i had faith in randles fit bc of his numbers with brunson and og but the injuries made it all so iffy and the knicks need to start out hot if theres a chance of anything and his injury made it harder

Hello Rudy! 👁️👁️
"After all that?"😢
Lots of hate for this trade, but I like it for the Knicks. Wish they kept Donte. The T Wolves though...WTF.
Giving up Donte is the part that makes me skeptical of this trade. Randle + filler for KAT is understandable enough for me.
Sucks seeing KAT traded, Ik not everyone loves him but he’s been the star of this team for my whole fandom.
That being said I love Divincenzo, and NAW (if he doesn’t get moved) for the development of Dillingham. Just put great defenders and catch and shooters by him
Nobody in the league has a bench like Minnesota. And for that reason I will put them pretty high on the contenders list.
Rusty’s wrong. I don’t mind the trade tbh. And in a year we can decide on Randle and gobert and still have a fantastic young core
@@johnarndorfer1704Randle has a player option next year. He could go for nothing lol

Watched Kenny's vid last night, now watching your vid rn. Interesting trade and im curious what you have to say on it
I think we all expected KAT and Randle will both get traded at some point. But we dont expect them to swap team.
