Knicks’ Mikal Bridges to face Nets for first time since team-altering deal
NY Post
Knicks fans were mostly ecstatic. Nets fans were disappointed but understood.
The blockbuster trade that sent Mikal Bridges from Brooklyn to Broadway for five first-round draft picks, a second-rounder and a first-round pick swap felt like a seismic move that said a lot about the directions the two franchises were headed.
The Knicks were going for it. The Nets were rebuilding again.
On Friday night, the two meet for the first time since the dramatic deal.
“I think it’ll be good to see my guys,” Bridges said of the reunion at MSG. “I have a lot of good friends over there, even the coaching staff that’s there, all the way up to [general manager] Sean Marks and [assistant general manager] Andy [Birdsong]. I’m real close with a lot of those guys, so it will be good to see them.”
So far, the trade hasn’t worked out as most imagined it would, at least not yet.
