I love the guy and love the story, but just because he's our fourth-best player doesn't mean he's a star. We're just so desperate for talent that a 7 elsewhere is a 9-10 here.
More than that even if they valued his play, he's 28 years old. They essentially traded talent for similar talent but younger in the Knicks trade.
OG (26), Precious (24), and Flynn (25)
FOR
Barrett (23), Quickley (24), and a second-round pick.
I really hope we can get the Siakam trade done, but if we do, I get the feeling it will be built around OMax, Green, and Hardy. If Exum was involved, it would be for salary ballast and not because Raptors want the 28-year old

Well they'll have to want a 32 year old THJ unless it becomes a three team. THJ and Holmes pretty much have to be involved to make the money work.
So then the value for them would be any mix or all of Green, Hardy, Omax, and likely two firsts.
