2021-2022 ROSTER TALK: [ARCHIVED]

So then Brunson leaves for free. You think you can find a player of Randle´s quality in free agency for the MLE? Or just a 1st round pick.

They are not trading Barrett. I´d want him to, but it seems clear that the Knicks intention is to re-unite Reddish, Barrett and Zion. Brunson seems to be the designated PG. Between paying Brunson 20M plus max extensions for Barrett/Zion, plus whatever Reddish gets, I think Randle becomes very tradeable.

Plus we know Randle wants to play for Dallas. Worst case you bring him off the bench and let him murder 2nd units and run the whole offense through him. 

Also want to take a wild guess how many percentage points separate the career 3pt FG% percentage of Randle and Porzingis. You´ll probably be surprised. Perception is everything in this league.

So you want to send Brunson + a first for a 20M rental that you are bringing off the bench?  That is madness.
