I don't think we make the conference finals if we had traded him midseason, and I don't think anyone would have given us a single first rounder for him before what he did in the playoffs. A 2nd rounder and a player another team didn't want is probably the best you were getting for Brunson at the deadline, I think the experience we had in the playoffs is more valuable to the teams growth than a 2nd round pick.
