Why The New York Knicks Do The Deal 

There’s another reason the Bulls ought to trade LaVine. As talented as he is, he’s probably not someone who can carry a team to title contention. 

That’s a tall bar. Very few players in the NBA meet it. Luckily, the Knicks wouldn’t need him to. 

Following this deal, the Knicks still wouldn’t have a top-5 player. What they would have is a trio of stars. LaVine would be joining Julius Randle and Jalen Brunson to form one of the most talented offensive trios in the NBA. 

Some will argue that this is exactly the model the Bulls tried to follow. Admittedly, it’s similar. On the other hand, the Bulls never had Mitch Robinson in the middle cleaning up defensive mistakes.
