This RJ Barrett for Mikal Bridges trade framework would benefit Knicks, Nets

While a strong and vocal contingent of New York Knicks fans would love to swing for the fences with a major superstar trade, even the slightest upgrade to key rotation pieces could lead to more wins come playoff time. Trading RJ Barrett across the bridge to the Brooklyn Nets for Mikal Bridges would be an impactful upgrade to the starting five.

I don’t want to be coy with you. What is considered an upgrade is subjective.

At the mere suggestion of trading Barrett for anything less than a top-five superstar, I know that people are reading with boiling blood.
