Knicks ACTIVELY PURSUING Bruce Brown… | Knicks News
Bruce Brown to the New York Knicks reports are escalating and as of right now the New York Knicks are topping the list as one of the main teams interested in trying to trade for Bruce brown but also the Toronto Raptors have recently clarified what Bruce Brown’s price point
Is we’re going to break down exactly what this means for the New York Knicks and so much more today so if you’re not subscribed to the channel already go ahead and hit that subscribe button now and make sure you have notifications turned on so you don’t miss a second of
The new content and now let’s get started Bruce Brown to the Knicks reports are picking up a lot of steam and right now the New York Knicks look like the hottest team in the entire league winners of nine straight looking for their 10th straight win against the
Los Angeles Lakers and they look like nothing can stop them and when healthy they are going to be dangerous but then that begs the question if they are looking so good do you really want to ruin the chemistry and if that’s the case you might want to make a smaller
Move maybe to your bench that doesn’t disrupt what the starters are doing and that’s exactly what the New York Knicks are looking like they want to do and if they want to do that one of the players to consider is Bruce Brown a player that the New York Knicks apparently have a
Lot of interest in and I’m not talking about a few weeks ago I’m talking about right now shout out to New York basketball on the app X for giving the following update according to Mark Stein he States Raptor president Messi Jerry continues to search for a first round
Pick as the centerpiece of any Bruce Brown trade the Lakers and the Knicks continue to be mentioned as interested suitors Forbes also spoke on this and they covered it as well and they mentioned the following the New York Nicks Los Angeles Lakers Philadelphia 76ers Oklahoma City Thunder sacrament
Kings and pretty much any team within the vicinity of a playoff spot should be gauging what it would take to acquire Bruce Brown ahead of the postseason run the reported price for brown has been clear a first round pick and possibly a player of intrigue and according to a
Recent report from the Athletics Joe vone he stated the following about the New York Knicks and what their plans are before the trade deadline in terms of targets according to him but you look at a guy like Malcolm brogen with the Blazers he’s on a lot of lists Bruce
Brown would be a nice fit there in Toronto Daniel Gafford perhaps with the Wizards and he’s not the only Insider we have another Insider shout out to my guy Michael Scotto from Hoops hype he also mentions that the New York Knicks have been connected to a number of players
Including Bruce Brown Malcolm Brogan and Alec Burks shout out to all of these great NBA Insiders for giving us the following updates about the New York Knicks and their trade interest in Bruce Brown this is no surprise because as soon as he was traded from Indiana to the Raptors the
Interest was instant almost instantly whatever trade plans they had they shifted it just a little bit because Bruce Brown was available let’s not forget when Bruce Brown was interviewed he was asked about Tom thibo and New York he had some glowing remarks he said he loves Tom thibo loves New York and
Clearly Tom thibo has been a fan of Bruce Brown since his college Years so if he had the opportunity to coach him he would jump at the chance the Knicks have the opportunity right now to make a deal like that happen as we heard from Forbes one of the likely asking prices
For Bruce Brown is going to be a first round pick and one player of intrigue attached possibly now it doesn’t mean the Knicks have to give up quitting Grimes and a couple of first round picks that doesn’t seem like it’s going to be the case what it does seem like though
Is maybe it’s going to be a protected pick and and they might ask for Grimes but hopefully yall hope they ask for Evan forier because if they do that the Knicks might be able to throw in a couple of second round picks Evan forier and that first round pick in order to
Get Bruce Brown given the way Quinton Grimes is playing right now and his value I wouldn’t want to include him in a Bruce Brown deal I would rather hold on to Quinton Grimes and potentially if I am going to trade him trade him for an All-Star player this off season you know
You can include Quinton Grimes maybe another player and a lot of picks to potentially facilitate an All-Star type of trade to happen with this Knicks team that’s how good I think Quinton Grimes is going to look as he continues playing with this Knicks team off the bench
Because Off the Bench he has looked very very good and if MSU Jerry just wants a first round pick as the centerpiece of any Bruce Brown trade according to Mark Stein then I think absolutely the New York Knicks already have the necessary assets available to make this trade
Happen now he’s not my first choice he he hasn’t been my first choice because I believe he’s a copy of Josh Hart so don’t kill me in the comments on this I’m not advocating for a Bruce Brown move but if the Knicks want to get better before the trade deadline and
They’re looking at a number of different players and they’re looking at cost if the Knicks could potentially get Bruce Brown for a protected first round pick something they have a lot of and they have a lot of their own first round picks as well too and they could
Potentially convince the Raptors to take on Evan forier and maybe you throw a couple of second round picks in there as well too that’s a trade that’s really hard to say no to if you’re the New York Knicks again there are a lot of players
On the table right now shout out to my guy Jake fiser who recently reported that tus Jones from the Washington Wizards if you potentially wait closer to the trade deadline you could potentially get him for multiple second round picks and multiple second round picks for a guy like tus Jones somebody
Who can come off the bench instantly that’s probably music to Leon Rose’s ear if that happens I can absolutely seeing him becoming a New York Nick let’s not forget that he has experience playing under Tom thibo back when they both were in Minnesota so we can’t take that away
From tus Jan as well too if he goes for multiple second round picks and there are a lot of players off the board at that time and the Knicks have not made a substantial trade at that point they would absolutely look at tus Jones and I think they would trade for him but
Clearly the New York Knicks are looking at other options on the board like Bruce Brown who is number one on their list it looks like and according to Mark Stein the Lakers and the Knicks continue to be mentioned as interested suitors to try to trade for Bruce Brown those are the
Two teams those are the two main teams trying to get Bruce brown right now and the Knicks have all the assets and more to get that type of deal done and if he the only player available if Bruce Brown is the only player left or at least the
Only impactful player left on the board then I have no problem with the New York Knicks going out and trading for him there’s a multitude of reasons why he makes sense the contract being one of the main ones because if the Knicks trade for him they’ll have him for this
Season he’ll have a contract with the New York Knicks for next season and if they want to make that trade in the off season for a superstar they potentially could use Grimes if they keep him Bruce Brown and a couple of picks to make that move for the allstar that they’ve always
Wanted you see how that works there for the new New York Knicks and if they play Bruce Brown he’s going to have more value way more value than Evan forier which makes an Allstar type of trade seem even more feasible and Bruce Brown under Tom thibo talk about a match made
In heaven those two together defensively are going to shut a lot of other teams down other opposing defenses are not going to know what to do with Bruce Brown Off the Bench and he can also start for you that’s what he can give you a starter a bench player somebody
Who can do it all sounds like Josh Hart and that’s why a lot of people are opposed to the deal that’s why I’m opposed to the deal but if he’s the only player left and he has impact on this team and you could potentially move him
For one of your protected picks in Evan forier I got to do the deal because if anything he’s still gonna have more value than forier is on this team and he can be somebody you can use to get that star that you want that’s one of the
Main reasons that I would do it and I think the Knicks would do it but also Bruce Brown definitely plays a part and he’s not just somebody that you’re adding just to trade for a star the reason you can trade for a star for him is because when he comes to this team
Under Tom thibo he’s gonna have an impact we forget sometimes that he’s a former Champion with the Denver Nuggets last season he’s not a scrub he’s not a nobody he can absolutely contribute to any team that he goes to there’s a reason that a number of contenders are
Looking to add Bruce Brown the Knicks and Lakers are just two of them let’s go go ahead and look at some numbers so you understand what Bruce Brown has done this season Brown again began the 2023 2024 season in Indiana starting all of his 33 appearances and averaging 12.1
Points 4.7 rebounds and 3.0 assists before being sent to the Raptors in the yakum deal in six games with three starts in Toronto he’s averaging 11.5 points 6.3 rebounds and 1.7 assist this that last part there that Bleacher Report stated is exactly what Leon Rose
Is waiting for he is waiting for the New York Knicks to get a very good price point for any player that they’re looking to trade for and that absolutely includes Bruce Brown Bruce Brown is somebody again that the Knicks had interest in as soon as he was made a
Raptor that is absolutely certain and as I just showed you there he puts up numbers he is productive and if he came to the Knicks he’d be doing that off off the bench because he would get the minutes to do that and more Off the Bench I just don’t like it again because
Again he’s a carbon copy basically of what Josh Hart is and I don’t need another player like Josh Hart on this team when I already have Josh Hart that’s how I feel about it Bruce Brown does offer a little better shooting than Josh Hart does but again that’s not
Really saying much when the real skill set of Bruce Brown is a mirror of what Josh heart gives you as well too they’re both very much hustle type of players that’s what they’re known for and that’s why the Lakers want them as well too and
I don’t mind if the Lakers get them only if the Knicks get somebody that’s a little bit better and a little bit more impactful for the team that we’re trying to build right now and it’s clear everybody has said it till they’re blue in the face the Knicks are looking to
Make a small upgrade so they can upgrade their bench if that’s the case we already know the names on the list Alec Burks Bruce Brown Jordan Clarkson and of course Malcolm Brogden and out of of all of those names at this point in time the name that’s come up the most and has
Been linked to the Knicks the most has been Bruce Brown I say it in almost every single video where there’s smoke there’s fire I think the Nicks interest in Bruce Brown is real I think they do want to trade for him but I also think the New York Knicks are waiting to see
If the Raptors are going to lower that price point for Bruce Brown as soon as that happens if it happens the Knicks are going to pounce they’re going to call the Raptors and they’re going to try to make another trade with them to get Bruce Brown on this team because
Again Tom thibo is a fan of him he loves him and the last player we just signed for a 10-day contract was a thoto favorite named who oh yeah Taj Gibson I mentioned that to say this if Tom tiido has a favorite player out there that the Knicks can get
For a Steel type of deal they’re going to do it Bruce Brown if his price point goes from here even to here Leon Rose and the Knicks will try to add him to this roster and Tom thibo will be smiling from ear to ear but what about
You guys what do you think about this report that the New York Knicks are one of the active teams looking to trade for Bruce Brown and now his price point potentially is centered around a first round pick and maybe another player of Merit let me know in the comments Below
Guys because honestly I would love to hear from you but that’s going to do it for this episode I hope you enjoyed it and if you did go ahead and smash that like button leave a comment below and of course guys please subscribe to the channel until next time Nick fans peace
The New York Knicks are one of the hottest teams in the league! Even with the squad missing a few key pieces, they have found a way to win. When healthy, this Knicks team will be dangerous. However, we’ve seen at times, even when healthy, the bench play leaves a lot to be desired. Multiple reports indicate that the Knicks are looking to add an impactful player at a very low cost. Multiple NBA Insiders confirm that the Knicks have trade interest in a number of players, but have been active in their pursuit of Raptors guards, Bruce Brown. Troy Mahabir breaks all of this down!

Brown can play the 1-3 and small ball 4. Hart plays the 2-3 and small ball 4. Both of these guys with Deuce on the second squad would be a very very good thing.
Listen, Brunson needs help? forget about Bruce Brown and stick with the Hawks deal? Murray that's the guy, but the Knicks never do what you hope they will do? Brown, Brogden, Burks, all those B's stand for you know what? They said same thing about Murray , Lakers and Knicks, now it's being reported the Lakers have dropped out of the Murray chase? it's hype? I Hope Leon Rose won't be cheap and make the deal with the Hawks because if they do the Knicks will be a lethal team?
It seems unlikely. once a player is traded the rules get weird about what can and can’t happen after that. Since he won’t make 60 days before the trade deadline I’m almost positive that the only way they can trade Brown is if they trade him straight up. Like you can’t even add a pick with a player. I think it might be different for teams under the cap and I don’t know their cap situation but the long and short of it is it would have to be fournier for brown if the rules apply as I understand them here.
F* Bruce Brown sucks. I’d rather just sit tight.
Quentin Grimes is younger and better than Bruce Brown😡😡
And I don’t want DeJounte Murray either. Gimme Brogdon for cheap if we can get that. Otherwise, stand pat and if there’s a big star we can bring in free agency using the expiring Fournier contract, and whatever else might be reasonable. We’re going to have to pay for Hartenstein after the season and that isn’t going to be that cheap given his stellar play. I don’t think we can afford to let him go with Mitch Robinson’s injury history…
Thank god Fournier needs his freedom from the Knicks and Coach Thibs no offense, but I want Fournier gone, I know it sounds bs, but he wants to play, and he needs his freedom to play, so trade him already! For Brown, anyone the Knicks are linked to, at the right price of course lol
I pass. We already Josh Hart. Why not Brogdon?
Let’s do it now
Bruce brown is a champion and for the playoffs he’s a perfect fit
Why add another Josh Hart? At least get a legit PG or a lengthy wing that can shoot.
My prediction is we get Burks. He’s also a Thibs guy and will be cheaper. Ujiri always wants a lot in trades and is not going to lower the price for NY. I still want Murray and have him come off the bench but play 32+ minutes.
Tyus Jones is the guy to get but I would really hate to remove McBride from the rotation. McBride is really an undersized SG in a PG body. They need his defense on the court but they also need a quality PG that can run the offense if Jalen is out. The Knicks have some tough decisions make.
Randle for Christian Wood is the move… also a pair of dirty socks
We only need to use a little extra for Murray. Cmon now Knicks. Thibs and our team culture will easily get Dejounte playing hard on D again.
When are you people gonna realize Knicks don’t need. Nobody
If Hart can play with Quickley then he can play with Brown. Hart is the type of player that can play with anybody and they’re not the same player. They have the same physical build but different games and either way so what?
Not trading grimes for Bruce brown. If grimes isn’t involved then ok
I would trade Fournier and a first round pick maybe but that’s it . Not trading them grimes for brown f that
Murray on the way?
I think We are ok right now, We need strength off the bench, but let’s see what solid player we can get to hold us down off the bench in the playoffs
If the Knicks not gone get Dejounte Murray, Mikal Bridges, or a All star, then they should just wait. Just give up Fournier and call it a day. Don’t give up Grimes for no reason.
Anyone see article about Leon and Paul met today?
Please report on the caa and rich Paul convo today!!! They squashed beef, what does that mean??? Murray???
Who cares about LeBron James he's old. Plus he didn't want to come to the New York Knicks back then we don't need that ol bum.. please
We don't need dejounte guy. We are find at PG..
We don't need no more All-Star we are fine all we need is a bench. Come on guys be smarter than yeah I don't know about basketball
