AROUND the NBA:

[SleepingHero]

he is a good player and I am sure he will figure it out once the team gets to know itself better, but Mikal Bridges has been struggling.  15 pts, almost 4 rebounds and 3 assists per game one 30 percent from 3. With less than one free throw attempt per game.  He is 28 years old.  While he is a good player and way too early to judge.  The Knicks gave up Bojan and 5 first round picks for him.   

For reference 12.4 pts, 9 rebounds and 2.1 assists.  On 32 % three point shooting (would like to see better).  And 26 years old.  That is PJ Washington.  PJ was gotten with one future first round pick.

I think NYK knew it overpaid by a crapton, but even with Bridges' struggles, I don't think they care. He fits so well on that team. His shot looks broken, which I never would've expected. But it's not like they are hurting for points right now. His defense and fit is good enough that I think NYK is fine for the time being.

But heck, if they want to press the emergency button, I'd love to take Bridges off their hands. They can have the pleasure of Maxi+OMax and heck lets give them a first or two. I'm feeling generous
