After successfully tasting the sweetness in the playoffs last season, the New York Knicks have made frequent moves in the free market and trading market during this offseason. Not only did they introduce one after another, Kemba Walker +Fournier + Bacon three strong support, and at the same time renewed Randall + Derrick Rose + Noel + Burks and other tigers!
However, although the strength of the lineup has been improved by the naked eye, for the new season's current big Knicks, considering the strength of the Eastern Conference's Nets, Bucks and 76ers, the strength of rivals should not be underestimated. Looking at the situation, the work of the team management in the offseason may not be over yet.
Regarding the eager Knicks, whether they will make adjustments and upgrades based on the team's current lineup configuration, we obviously can't blindly conclude the conclusion!
In response to this, the US media "ClutchPoints" has also recently targeted the Knicks who want to continue signing and strengthening, enhance the strength of the lineup, bring more helpers to Randall, and make every effort to prepare for the new season. The idea of a breakthrough in the playoffs has been re-analyzed and evaluated.
And after combining the shortcomings and shortcomings of the team’s current lineup configuration, as well as the prospects and situation of the offseason trading market, I believe that the Knicks, who have ambitious goals for the new season, indeed still need to make some "crazy" operate.
And with the emergence of this idea, reporter Nihad Žunić also gave his own opinions and suggestions, and also provided suggestions for the Knicks, boldly providing 2 trading plans for reference.
Among them, the Knicks may be 5 for 1, try to stud 31+5 All-Star guards, 2 for 1 and Zach LaVine, the core of the Bulls!
5 for 1 Stud 31+5 All-Star guard
The Knicks can send RJ Barrett + Kevin Knox + Alec Burks + Iraq Manuel Quikley + Miles McBride,Come try in exchange for the Wizards' Bradley Beal .
Last season, he played for the Wizards. The performance of Bill is obvious to all. Throughout the regular season, Bill played 60 games on behalf of the Wizards. The season attendance rate can be said to be quite impressive.
In the case of averaging 36 minutes per game, Beal not only averaged 31.3 points, 4.7 rebounds, 4.4 assists and 1.2 steals, as well as the overall performance of 34.9% three-pointers in the season, and he was also named to the All-Star team+ The best team three!
For the Knicks, Barrett + Quikley and Berks + Knox, who have great training value and the upper limit of development, may not be a simple one for the Knicks. Decide.
But as the league’s top super scorer, the 28-year-old Bill is still at the golden stage of his career. At the same time, he has a wealth of playoff experience and personal strength, which can give the team's guards both offensive and defensive lines. The improvement brought can be imagined.
Even with Randall + Rose + Walker + Fournier, and under the head coach Thibodeau, the arrival of Bill will also inject a shot into the team, and such a strong Knicks Team, the new season may indeed be worth looking forward to!
2 for 1 corner LaVine
The Knicks can send RJ Barrett + Alec Burks to try to exchange for Zach LaVine of the Bulls.
Playing for the Bulls last season, LaVine undoubtedly played a phenomenal average performance. Throughout the regular season, LaVine averaged 27.4 points, 5 rebounds, 4.9 assists, and 41.9 in the season. Efficient performance of% three-pointers,He was selected to the All-Star team for the first time in his career.
For the Knicks, playing for the Bulls for several seasons, LaVine has proven his ability to become the league's top shooting guard with practical actions.
Compared to Bill, LaVine, as the dunk king, is more dominant in athletic ability and explosive scoring, which fits well with the Knicks basketball system that emphasizes mobility and defense.
For Lavinians, considering the Knicks team market and salary space, this may become a boosting factor to impress Lavin who has been seeking a big contract!
Of course, for the Bulls, the Knicks sent RJ Barrett + Burks this two-for-one trade plan, obviously not enough to impress the team management.
After all, as the “post” of the team, the Bulls have always regarded the all-star combination of LaVine + Vucevic as the core of the team, and in this year’s offseason, they have successively introduced DeRozan + Lonzo Bauer + Caruso + Derek Jones Jr. and other reinforcements, although they have not yet reached an early contract extension with LaVine, obviously the team management will not Easily let go of Lavin, the super new star!
Finally, as a fan, among the above two trading options, which one do you prefer the Knicks to achieve? Or in other words, for the Knicks' plan to continue signing and strengthening, what better candidates and directions do you have? Welcome to leave your thoughts in the comment area!
