We have two projected top 11 picks this draft, all future picks are owned as well as Denver’s 2025 first round pick. Players of worth would be Suggs, Cole, Wendell Carter, Bol

I don't think any of Suggs, Cole, Wendell Carter, Bol would have a lot of value here and would not be weighed much in a Bane trade. And since we are win now the two LP picks wouldn't be the direction we would choose to go. If we are moving Bane it is likely for a win now player that is better than him (I think he is a top 30-40 player as of right now) with us adding assets as needed.
So if no Frans then very likely no Bane unless a bigger trade comes along where we need those LPs+ instead of Bane. I doubt that opportunity materializes before the draft.

Agreed with psman. Memphis is win now so won't move core guys unless it is for an upgrade. If you want to offer a rebuilding package you will have to find another team to get involved that can send us a player worth moving Bane for.

Tyus/Bane/Kennard/JJJ/Embiid - you can package Adams, a young guy and/or draft capital to try and upgrade the starting 3 spot, or just roll as is. If he has JJJ and Embiid behind him, who cares if Kennard can't guard a traffic cone?

Now we're talking.
You'd just need to acquire a top perimeter scorer off the bench, like Bogdan Bogdanovic or Jordan Clarkson and that's suddenly a really tough team to stop in the West.

Maybe we try to use a couple picks and chase OG again though with the new salary rules it may be tough to pay him his next contract. Then add someone like you said as a bench gunner to help round out the team.

that wont get it done DFS is more realistic if you need a 5th option 3/D wing

I think the trade is getting a SNT for Brooks to a 3rd team and the best of the Mem/GS 2024 1st to Brooklyn for DFS. Brooklyn saves money and would prefer a pick in 2024 versus another in 2023. Will likely have to get another smaller wing that can chase around 1-3 better with the MLE, like maybe a Thybulle. Will have to ship off one of young players to make the roster spot and need to trade our 1st this year for a future 1st. Just not sure who we look to move, before the playoffs I would have said Tillman but not now.

if you guys were aiming for a larger fish which filler contract(s) would you trade out of Adams/Kennard/Jones?

He's done a great job in the Knicks locker room.
I think Memphis needs more level -headed veterans.
The deadline for the Knicks to re-sign Rose is this Saturday (June 24th).
