Chicago Bulls Receive: G/F RJ Barrett, F Obi Toppin, 2024 First-Round Pick (NYK), 2026 First-Round Pick (NYK)
New York Knicks Receive: G/F Zach LaVine
The New York Knicks, on the other hand, used to be a great team in the past. It hasn’t been uncommon for them to fall from grace, either. There are times when this happens.
In fact, it just demonstrates how tough life can be in the NBA, something that can be easily overlooked. There can be a long stretch of sustained success for a team. They will often follow that up with many more years of disappointment in the future.
Take a look at the Chicago Bulls for example. There was no doubt that this was the league’s most popular destination during the 1990s. During the era of the Bulls, they had a dynasty of their own.
As a result, they have had a difficult time staying relevant since then. The current roster of this team is a result of an effort to correct that course.
