Mikal Bridges TRADED To Knicks! | Sixers ALL-IN On OG Anunoby Now?
all right sixer Nation to be honest with you I wasn’t even going to make this video as you can probably see I’m dead tired right now we have a live stream to do tomorrow night it’s going to be a very fun draft reaction show so be sure to come through we’ll see what happens and all the chaos that ensues with the Sixers draft to whether they make the pick or not but I have been going back and forth for the last couple hours on Twitter with sixer fans and I just need to get some things off my chest because in case you were living under a or maybe you were taking a nap or you were at work or whatever the case may be and didn’t see the Brooklyn Nets have decided to trade Mel Bridges to the New York Knicks for boan bogdanovich four unprotected first round picks a protected first round pick via the Bucks an unprotected pick Swap and a second round pick so essentially they give up bogdanovich five first round picks an unprotected pick Swap and a second round pick now let’s look at these picks okay they gave up a 25 27 29 and 231 First round unprotected pick and a 25 protected first via milwauke you know what that means the Knicks still have their two late first round picks tomorrow night so they did not give up this year’s two first round picks they give up future picks and they still can draft players tomorrow night and they get male Bridges right and as you know or may not know I am a novva fan I’ve said that many times before even watching these playoffs seeing how Brunson and them were acting and seeing the Sixers go up against my Nova guys Brunson Josh Hart diven chenzo and now they have the whole gang Back Together by adding Mel Bridges I am already not looking forward to playing that team next season the Knicks got better okay I know a lot of people are saying to me right now don’t worry male Bridges is not that good male Bridges is a volume shooter he’s not that guy stinks I think the ineptitude and the deficiencies of the Brooklyn NS have people fooled Mel Bridges is a damn good player the Knicks got better and talk about the chemistry factor it’s already there let’s talk about the nets for one second and then we’ll get back to the Knicks all right I don’t care about the Nets they are a terrible organization from top to bottom they’re now going into what their third or fourth version of the rebuild really one of their only secure players is Ben Simmons that tells you all you need to know it failed every iteration of the Nets failed but the fact that they trade him to New York the team that constantly clowns their organization and their fan base that clowns their own fan base I I mean I’m sick to just even see that people are saying oh let’s give the Nets Applause because they finally went in the right direction and rebuilt congratulations you guys have hit the reset button again you failed to build around Bridges and cam Johnson who says it’s not going to be more of the same but to trade him to the Knicks in the conference to New York I I’m sick about that I I hate the Nets I’m frustrated but anyway back to the Knicks the Knicks took a risk that’s what good teams do I know people are going to say it’s a crazy overpay I don’t disagree with you this is way way more than what Bridges is worth this is a hall but now they just set the new market for the trades right I mean goar got traded for a ton of assets before say let’s just say Lori Markin or Jimmy Butler was to get traded right imagine how many picks you’re going to have to give up to get one of those guys now they just set the parameters they hit the market first it’s all about timing and the Knicks got better sometimes you have to take a risk if you want to be a championship Contender all right why I’m really frustrated other than the Knicks are going to be very annoying to play is that another team in the East got better it’s never the six I’m frustrated about that maybe this wasn’t the right move for the the Sixers okay maybe this wasn’t the one but whether it’s the Cavs getting Mitchell or last year the Celtics go above and beyond they get porzingis in Holiday now the Knicks get Bridges right the Sixers had Jimmy Butler they let him go they tried to get hard and wasn’t the right move it’s never the Sixers that get the move to put him over the top and people are happy that we didn’t give up picks in what 2031 do you know how different life is going to be in 2031 we’re worried about a first round pick are we trying to win now now it feels like all signs are pointing towards signing Paul George but there is one other caveat and it’s the hope that you can go out and get OG and an Obi earlier today this was put out on NBA Central an anonymous NBA exec says he would offer OG an average of 46.4 million per year I’m starting to think this was Daryl Mo there’s no coincidence it comes out like this now the reports are following that the Knicks want to keep OG an anobi they want to keep hartenstein I haven’t looked at the numbers to see if it it’s even possible I’m sure they’re going to try to keep them but it now gets very intriguing about OG’s free agency can the Sixers find a way to lure him away and get him to Philadelphia with his Old Coach Nick nurse if the Sixers end up getting OG and anobi out of this I’d be very happy but I would not pay him a Max I wouldn’t pay him 46 million per year that you cannot do maybe they go and sign Paul George I don’t know what’s going to happen but another Eastern Conference team got definitively better and I don’t think we should be here throwing a parade it’s never us to make the big move there’s still a lot of time there’s still a lot of moves to be had out there but they’re starting to dwindle a little bit now on top of that whole trade Adrien wenasi put this out and I was like what what is going on here there was another trade that happened right after the Nets and the rockets then had trade to you know return original picks involved in the James Harden trade years ago it was a whole thing but now the Rockets are trying to get Kevin Durant now the Suns don’t really seem intent on giving him up but let’s just say the Rockets were able to get Durant well that’s another name off the board right I posed that trade before like these guys are out there the Sixers cannot just wait back on their heels and say well we you know something will fall into our lap no they have to go out and get what they want big summer lot of cap space a lot of options but you can’t just sit back the Knicks just got better they got their guy already we’re not even at the draft yet something has to happen here and it’s just it’s really frustrating seeing that it’s the other team to always make it happen and not the 76ers here’s my you know final statement and then like I said I will see you all tomorrow night the Sixers need to empty the war chest they need to offer every draft pick possible to get lri marinan and sign OG an adobi lri marinan based on his contract for this season right he’s trying to sign an extension but he’s got one year left financially I know they could afford lorri Markin in for this season and sign ogan and Obi if they can do that I feel comfortable with this team moving forward now obviously this is not the only option right like if they don’t do this then they’re just cooked automatically but here’s what I would do Sixers want to make a splash they want to say yo let’s go to war with the Knicks and the Celtics and these other teams next year I would offer every draft pick for Lori marinin sure it’s probably a fantasy Danny a most likely will not trade him but this is the type of Splash move you have to make get OG get lri get some of these guys and let’s go to war man that’s really all I got what do you think sixer Nation let me know down below did the Knicks get better do you think they made a bad trade do you think they made a good trade what is going to happen now who are the Sixers is going to Target who were they going to get give me your thoughts down below appreciate everybody tapping in be sure to like comment and subscribe we have a huge huge week ahead of us and the craziness is already underway [Music]

How do you feel about the Knicks trading for Mikal Bridges?
I would call Atlanta..
Send them 4 firsts for Dejounte Murray & DeAndre Hunter.
We get 2 good players for the price that it would cost to get one Star.
And for those people that called me crazy last month when I said Mikal Bridges was going to The Knicks all i can say is I told y'all so.
🤷♂️🤷♂️🤷♂️
P.S OG Anunoby at max dollars would be a massive mistake and a desperate move by Morey. 76ers need to think outside the box.
If NY keeps OG and Randle comes back there's no way the Sixers can match up. The window just got shut closed time to trade Emiid for a young star and 5 unprotected 1st rd picks. OKC could give up three young players and 5 unprotected and still be loaded with picks and players.
Yessssss
Lauri gonna guard Tatum or Brown? We need 2 way wings not a big shooter
People think this is terrible because they are looking at this move in a vacuum. Big picture this is a great move. The type of move Morey can't do. No matter what move Morey makes it will be too little too late
Mikal and Bojan made the same amount of money. Meaning this does not affect OG’s contract, if anything the chances of OG signing increase since the team is better and they doubling down.
RB said exactly what I’m saying get the guy out of Utah and give Danny whatever he wants
Knicks just got alottttt better
Sixers management is a joke and has been for a very long time.
bruh, how is it knicks keep getting better, and sixers only get crumbl cookies?
Completely agree. The Knicks not only are a championship contender now, but they have Golden State-esque chemistry to follow suit. All you can do is hope now that Morey will do something to match or do more for the Sixers than what the Knicks did
Woj said Knicks intend on signing OG
We didn’t do anything yet chill
Talk to them RB! 🔥🔥🔥✅
For me if we wanna make a splash gotta go for DeJounte Murray !
Cant say the Gobert trade is the worst now
Thank you so much for the dedication RB! Never fail to break the news 🐐 Can’t wait for tomorrow. Hopefully we get better 🔵🔴🔵🔴🔵
Get Lavine…his contract sucks, but he has the highest ceiling out there of guys available…risky tho
Sixers are the worst organization 😒 😤
Lauri and OG. Or Klay and OG
Here we go again with another loss!! Morey????
As a knick fan and also seen you on Knicks fan tv. This is a good channel and keep up the good work
Cool fun move it will be fun to watch but as a sixers fan this is just the start of the off-season. Draft is tomorrow and let's see what happens but we can't overpay in a desperation to make a move. if it's not our time it's not our time this is a all in move for the Knicks let's see what happens
Knicks got all the league's best role players on their team
nah bro when i saw the title knicks got mikal bridges i literally gasped for air and then I looked at the trade details… they gave up a haul to get him no lie… 5 1st round picks, and a 2nd rounder + a player shiieeeeett I still feel some type of way that a team got him but since its the knicks that got him…
I swear, all the Knicks do is listen to Philly sports talk radio and go after the guys we keep talking about being the best fit for the Sixers
I love u RB. But i think u need to put down the crack pipe on lauri. “Every draft pick” would be 7 1sts for lauri. And for what? If we sign OG we wont be able to afford resigning lauri…if ur trading all 7 picls including the 2028 clippers pick, u need to get a mega star…not lauri markinan
RB you hit the nail on the fucking head with this one. Agree with all your tweets and sentiments.
Yall should go grab Cam Johnson and DFS
At this point, the Sixers need to stop considering 35-year-olds like Jimmy Butler and Paul George. Instead, they should focus on players entering their prime who can align with Joel Embiid and Tyrese Maxey's timeline. Players like 27-year-old Lauri Markkanen and 27-year-old OG Anunoby are about to hit their prime and can help the team compete with the Celtics and the Knicks. Even Kevin Durant is too old at this point. Moreover, Paul George is not really a leader; he's more of an egotistical player who has never significantly advanced any team. His peak was as a young player for the Pacers, and since then, he hasn't contributed much. I don't see Paul George offering the Sixers anything more than what James Harden did.
If we can’t get OG I would love to see Daryl Morey hike up his salary for the Knicks so we cap them at the second apron 😂
The sixers front office has been horrible since the 80s. Always drafting projects over good players and making bad trades. Its draining
its all about Morey he dont know how to trade or get a player toinks i dont know about this sixers i was you sixers fired this guy morey
RB this organization is lost. No I didnt want Bridges for 5 1sts but the rumor is Ingram. Are u fucking joking? All the cap space will be used on Ingram. I mean Morey ive been saying has no clue what hes doing. The man has done nothing for 3 years
Yall Philly fans make me laugh have yall ever thought about maybe these players don’t want to go to the sixers after they mistreated harden by lying to him do u think people don’t think hey if he did it with harden he probably would do it to us
Brunson
Bridges
OG
Randle
Hartenstein
and Hart from the bench????
Knicks going be unstoppable next year with mikal, If sixers get OG thats going be scary to me they be better tgen Celtics two Stars with a lockdown defender is a championship team.
Adam silver will put the knicks in the finals cause they have a lot of lightskin blacks. If harden or embiid were lightskin they have a least 2 mvps each
Doing that is stupid too because signing OG leaves you money for maxey or Lauri… Nah I'll take Lauri and Maxey and depth than Keep OG and Maxey rent Lauri for one year..
Why don’t the Sixers try getting KD?
Sixers should just take the $65M and donate it to a children's hospital. They ain't competing in the East
Knicks gave up a TON for Mikal Bridges, however they are now in prime position to compete. Knicks just got SCARY, but it needs to work.
The Villanova Knicks???? Smh The Nets SUCK!!!! The Sixers need to do something serious.
I wouldnt mind Ingram
The Sixers are mostly all talk! They drag far too long on players they claim they want, until another team takes them. They do this every year! It is ridiculous!
Damn really wanted Mikal
Are Corey Krispert and Kyle Kuzma still a possibility?? We REALLY need a 4, and Kuzma can play that!
