Justin and Rob are joined by The Ringer’s Bill Simmons to break down the trade that brings OG Anunoby to the New York Knicks, with RJ Barrett and Immanuel Quickley heading to the Toronto Raptors.
The guys discuss Anunoby’s fit with Tom Thibodeau’s Knicks as well as how Barrett and Quickley will take to their new roles in Toronto.
They wrap things up by talking through whether or not the Knicks will pull off another complementary deal, who the new “Trade Machine MVP” is, and which other players we should expect to be dealt next.
Hosts: Justin Verrier and Rob Mahoney
Guest: Bill Simmons
Producer: Ben Cruz
