Mikal Bridges traded to Knicks for four unprotected first-round picks, a protected first and Bogdan

I really don't understand this trade for the Knicks. They basically paid every draft pick possible for Bridges. Bridges probably maxes out as a 2nd star on a team - and compared to other 2nd stars, he looks rather mediocre and a clear tier below the Kyries, Browns etc.

Yeah, he is a nice player that fits next to any star so I get the allure. But he also just had a down year and is not that young anymore. It might make the Knicks competitive enough to go for a title run, but they are far from favorites - all while gambling their future away. In that way it kinda reminds me of the Gobert trade. You might argue, that that turned out ok, but I am not so sure...

At that price he’s only worth it if he’s the missing piece that puts them over the top for a championship.

Could it be that marks is trying to protect Bridge's bag by speaking to guy's loyalty?
GMs trade people & get trade requests all the time - they are insulated from the whole looking good to public thing & I doubt Nets fans care who broke up 1st & only how much return team got as a result
