Too bad the Celtics didn’t play Minnesota or Denver in the Finals otherwise they would have needed KP all 7 games and maybe even Kornet or Queta too.
But you’re right, BOS has a solid group of wings, bolstered by Jrue and the emergence of Pritchard. Teams are going to need both legit wings and legit bigs to dethrone the Celtics next year.
With Bridges, OG, Hart, Brunson, and Donte, they’re going to be formidable.

Priority #1 resign OG.
High IQ ball. Culture. Two way players everywhere. Shot makers. Dogs. Top 5 NBA coach.
Brunson is the best Knick in 30 years. Best Knick front office in 30 years.

Alright I gotta sleep now. Goodnight boys.
I'm happy for Bridges though. He finally about to get some vagina with a Knick jersey on.

JB is firmly in the #noexcuses tier. If
Vincent Van Goat
ever returns to the thread, he’s gonna have a lot of jokes if/when the knicks get bouncedESPN gave the Rockets an A for the trade:
Brooklyn sends a swath of picks for 2025, 2026 first rounders
Brooklyn Nets get:
Return of 2025 first-round swap
2026 first-round pick (via Nets)
Houston Rockets get:
2025 first-round swap (via lesser of Rockets or Thunder for Suns)
2027 first-round pick (via Suns)
2029 first-round pick (via more favorable of Dallas and Phoenix)
2029 first-round swap (via less favorable of Dallas or Phoenix)
Brooklyn Nets grade: B-
Having already sent the Rockets the No. 3 pick in Wednesday's NBA draft as part of the Harden trade, the Nets assured they won't do the same thing either of the next two years, a necessary part of the rebuilding plan the team is apparently embracing after trading Bridges to the Knicks in a separate deal Tuesday night.
The cost was considerable. In order to get back the team's own 2026 first-round pick, as well as extinguish Houston's 2025 swap rights, Brooklyn gave up two first-round picks and two swaps utilizing the extra picks the Nets had coming from last year's Durant and Kyrie Irving trades.
The only way for this deal to make sense from a value standpoint is for Brooklyn to prioritize ping-pong balls over wins the next two seasons, particularly ahead of what's expected to be a strong draft in 2025. To some degree, the Nets may have overvalued avoiding the frustration that comes with watching another team make a lottery pick they "earned" this year. But if Brooklyn ends up with a top-four pick next June, the price will seem well worth it.
Houston Rockets grade: A
The Rockets were well positioned to extract maximum value from the Nets, adding to their own stockpile of incoming picks. Houston has bet against Phoenix in particular. The Rockets will get the Suns' unprotected 2027 first-round pick and will get their 2029 first-rounder as long as it's not the worst of those belonging to Dallas, Houston and Phoenix. They also have the potential to end up with the Suns' 2025 first-rounder if it's better than the one the Rockets end up with after swapping with the Oklahoma City Thunder.
ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski reported Tuesday night that one possible end goal for Houston is using those picks to acquire Durant, which would be ironic given Phoenix originally gave up the picks for Durant -- and the Rockets landed the Nets' picks when they sent Harden to Brooklyn to team with Durant.
Per Wojnarowski, the Suns are reluctant to make such a move now, meaning Houston will explore using the Phoenix picks to add another veteran star to a talented young core that surged late in the 2023-24 regular season. Whether trying to win now is the right end game for the Rockets is unclear depending on the player and the value, but either way Houston comes out of this deal ahead in terms of tradeable picks.
