@taskmaster4450le would love this post. I think that the Knicks should be finding ANYTHING to help with their offense. Watching games I would see most points coming from Drose and Randle with very bad spacing around as teams would allow for shots from Bullock or Barrett. Unless those guys have it going (admittedly they played well down the stretch of the regular season) the Knicks offense is lifeless iso-ball. I think McCollum would be a great pick, but could limit touches on the ball for Randle, who would need to re-adjust to the off-ball lifestyle. I just don't know what the Trail Blazers would accept for their #2 player, FA may end up being more lucrative for the Knicks.

I agree that the cost might be there, but McCollum plays off ball pretty well and pre-injury, he finally started taking the majority of his shots in rhythm and mostly from 3. I think the Blazers will be motivated to move CJ as they cannot move forward with an undersized backcourt pair with limited defense.
I see your point regarding backcourt size, but I am not sure that they see it that way with the offensive power those two are able to provide them. I've always seen Nurkic as the main issue for the Blazers along with the fact that if either CJ or Dame is having a bad night there is no third option to relieve any pressure on them and they end up getting blown out after the doubles come on the stars.
