That would be an interesting swap. They'd have to deal Collins as well, either expanding that trade or separately. But Murray and Towns would make an interesting duo. What would T-Wolves do about their forward spots if they dealt KAT? But Edwards-Young backcourt could potentially be an offensive firecracker.

Trae for Siakam? Everyone wins?

That could also work if the Raptors don't re-sign FVV.

Once upon a time, like, say, a week ago, we Knicks fans were clamoring for RJ to be traded for peanuts. Now that he's good again, do you see the Knicks making any major moves this off season? Can Barrett and Randle truly coexist?

Randle is still bothered by that ankle injury and Barrett has filled the scoring void. The broader point is you can't judge guys by a couple of bad games or weeks. Barrett showed the Knicks enough to get a $107 million contract. He should be an impact player, given the salary he's making. Another broader point -- it's good for the league for the Knicks to finally be relevant again.

In the wake of Playoff Jimmy doing Playoff Jimmy things and Lauri Markannen winning Most Improved Player, I have to ask:  where do the Bulls rank on terms of most mismanaged NBA teams?  I'd imagine they would quietly be very high on the list.

Butler hasn't been there in years, and wanted out. As for the current regime, they gambled on Vuc and DeRozan and Ball forming the core of a contender alongside LaVine. It hasn't worked, in part because Ball has been hurt and may not be the player he was projected to be.
That's all the time we have for today. Enjoy the playoffs and join us for our next chat on Tuesday.
