Time to put the Knicks higher on your power rankings pduh.

Jalen Brunson without Mitchell Robinson or Julius Randle or OG Anouby(Who is better than Iman Shumpert, that +/- shit is no joke) is carrying the squad on his back. I didn't expect to see Miles Deuce Mcbride step in for Quickley and be that sparkplug guard off the bench, been very impressed with his game. That entire draft class for NYK with Grimes/McBride/Sims has been big time, all 3 guys are in the rotation(Grimes was out today) and helping in some way.

As Kendrick Perkins says it best, "Carry the hell on".

Maaaaaan the Knicks are trying to make me fall in love again. I just don’t want to buy into the hype of a regular season squad only to be broken down in the playoffs again. My whole thing is they’re going to have to get through Milwaukee and Boston to get to the Finals. I think we can beat Philly (shout out to Maxey for not only winning me First Basket money last night but a career high 51 points) but Milwaukee and Boston are built for a chip. The Knicks are still a bunch of Wildcats building to be legit. It’s definitely fun, but I’m keeping my expectations safe.

Playoff Randle may be worse then Playoff Lamar.

Here is this week top ten power rankings

1. Celtics
2. Timberwolves
3. Thunder
4. Clippers
5. Nuggets
6. Knicks
7. Bucks
8. Cavs
9. 76ers
10. Kings

Trade deadline is tomorrow I think this year will be quiet maybe some minor moves like today but it’s possible we may see some most recognize names might be in the move come tomorrow someone like DEJOUNTE MURRAY rumors he been shop around for months, DeMar DeRozan he deserve better and Bulls need to move on for a rebuild only bright side for the Bulls this season beside Caurso is Coby White.

I list some more players who might get dealt and what team the player a perfect fit

I start who I mentioned earlier…

Dejounte Murray
Bucks, Heat, Pacers, & Spurs

3 out of four teams were interest in Murray and I thought he fit those teams better while Lakers is other teams interest in him personally love to see the Spurs to get him back pair him with Wemby.

DeMar DeRozan
Lakers, Kings, or Heat

Three of the teams are playoff teams and all three teams could use a scorer on the roster.

Bruce Brown
Lakers, Nuggets, Knicks, Warriors, & Kings

Rumors Raptors looking to move him after he was traded early of the season I thought the teams I mentioned below they could use him yes Knicks did trade for OG which was a great trade for the Knicks but they could use a backup SF and can play at the two.

Zach Lavine
Lakers, Kings, Warriors, Heat, 76ers

I doubt he is going to get moved anyways since he option to have foot surgery which ruled him out for the rest of this season rumors has it the Pistons we’re interest in him probably why he decided to get surgery 😒. Anyways, the teams I listed I think they be a better fit for Lavine I doubt the Warriors will trade for him but I do think Klay Thompson as a Warrior is going to come to the end this off-season.

Bojan Bogdanovic
Memphis, Heat, Cavs, Hawks, 76ers

Can play small put him at the four which it’s a better position for him those five teams could use and a better fit

Malcolm Brogdon
Lakers, Memphis, Heat, Mavs, Celtics, Cavs

A combo guard on a bad team I could see him being dealt especially a playoff teams

Gordon Hayward
Heat, 76ers, Clippers, Warriors

He on his last deal he could be a potential buyout candidate if he is not traded if so a playoff team I could see them target him.

Alex Caruso
Knicks, Heat, Lakers, Clippers, Knicks, Bucks, Warriors, Suns, Mavs, Celtics, 76ers, Timberwolves, Pelicans

Rumors has it lots of teams call the Bulls for Caruso and I’m fine for the Bulls to trade him to a contender he deserve better but depend on the deal of course lot of teams could use him.

You like the deal with Detroit for the Knicks pduh? Seems like they get needed bench scoring.

Now with NBA trade deadline is over

Here are some teams who are the winners I am not going to give much in-depth I already talked about the trades on my podcast last night check it out if you like.

The Winners

New York Knicks

I say this before, and even on my podcast last night I say again the Knicks are not playing around at all. It all starts when they acquire OG few weeks, or so back which playing great basketball since they acquire OG a wing which is one of their needs who can defend three positions.

At the deadline they got some offensive help to take some pressure off Brunson because let’s face it playoff Randle is scary, and that is not a good thing. Acquiring Alec Burks a scorer that can helping scoring off the bench, and they also acquire Bojan Bogdanovic a guy plays both the four and the three(I think he is better playing at the four especially today’s NBA.). He’s averaging 20 ppg and shooting nearly 47% from the field and 41% behind the arc this season. Great pick up for the Knicks honestly he should start at the four over Randle but I get it can’t due to Randle’s salary but fuck that.

He compliment with Robinson(which he should be coming back soon.) much better than Randle. Better spacing the floor and high basketball IQ.

Dallas Mavericks[/u]

I love what the Mavericks did at the deadline.

Acquiring Daniel Gifford a rim protector and brings energy off the bench(I’m assuming he be playing off the bench.) they added size, and they upgrade a power forward while I thought signing Gant Williams was a good pick up and he did went to a good start early of the season but he fell off recently. Getting PJ Washington who I think is underrated can stretch the floor even though he didn’t shoot the three well this season but a anyways he also a solid defender. He definitely start at the PF for the Mavs.

Honorable mentions OKC causing Gordon Hayward and 76ers getting Buddy Hield those are solid moves but nothing special.

What a show Sabrina and Steph put on in that Three Point Contest.  Sabrina scored as many points as the leaders in the preliminary round of the actual contest.

You know, if Caitlin Clark goes pro after this year, I'd love to see a 2 vs. 2 battle. Sabrina and Caitlin vs. Steph and Klay.

I was thinking the same tag match up but I think we might get Caitlin Clark vs Anthony Edwards.

pduh Bulls draft pick dancing in an emo phase(again), this comes a week after getting choked out by some random Pelican. Was gonna throw this in the 2024 music thread but this came out last year and it's NBA worthy.

In WNBA news, Caitlin Clark announced that she's going pro after this college season.

The Indiana Fever have the #1 pick for the Draft.

She seems like an Indiana/midwest type of player. I'm expecting that avatar shortly mikec . Unless you give Bobby Witt Jr some shine, then all is forgiven. 

The Knicks looked awful against the 76ers. Poor shot selection, indecisive decision-making & sluggish play doomed them. NY will lose a home-court advantage.

Gradey Dick is the best Raptor of all time lmao

Draymond Green choking his head coach Steve Kerr oh boy……

Fake news! A Woj fake twitter account made that story up! 

Knicks about to clinch the 2nd seed which is wild.

Bad news is we have to face either Philly or Miami round 1. I wanted the 3 seed so Indiana would be up.

What the hell were the Bulls doing playing their guys as long as they did pduh? You're locked in at the 9th seed, you need to win 2 games in like 4 days to get into the playoffs officially, what is Billy Donovan smoking playing guys that deep into the game?

I don't necessarily fear Philly since Embiid probably won't be fully healthy, the Heat always scare me if Himmy Butler and co. are on. That and Bam Adebayo always hurts the Knicks physically.

Crack that’s what he smoking just like the front office is smoking nowadays 

I’m calling it ECF matchup Celtics vs Knicks 

The Bulls give the Knicks heck today. That was a great game, pduh. Blindy, the Knicks are in the playoffs!

Where the hell is the playoff thread?

That was an incredibly fun game with the Knicks and Sixers. Hart was clutch as can be.

pduh heartbroken after last night.

Yeah the role players really stepped up for NYK today. Miles McBride is so friggin underrated man. Such an energizer bunny. Knicks playoff rotation is consisted of like 5-6 2nd round picks. 

Knicks and Jets fans, some of the best in the world.
