Where we messed up is we should have drafted Haliburton or went after Lonzo.

Haliburton is supposedly available now

If I were Van Vleet I would ask for a no trade clause to the Knicks,not because the Knicks are a dysfunctional organization but because they are the only team that makes me look like Allen Iverson when I play against them.

New York shouldn't trade away any of our younger homegrown talents/prospects. This Front Office is finally building something nice with potential to build something special.

R.J. Barrett = 21 years old.
Deuce McBride = 21 years old.
Quentin Grimes = 21 years old.
Rokas Jokubaitis = 21 years old (A+ draft & stash).
Immanuel Quickley = 22 years old.
Obi Toppin = 23 years old.
Jericho Sims = 23 years old.
Mitchell Robinson = 23 years old
.

2022 = Two 1st round picks + Two 2nd round picks.
2023 = Two 1st round picks + Four 2nd round picks.

And Julius Randle (as our one Free Agent) is still only 27 years old.

Keep these guys together throughout the next 3 years while adding complimentary draft picks alongside of them moving forward and within 2-3 years this team will be prime to compete and contend and for many of years to come too.

And with this game plan you might even run into an NBA Free Agent Superstar who finally want's to come to New York City in order to be apart of something special.

Why in the world would he be a available after playing so well as a starter and being on his rookie deal? Are the Kings that inept?

The Kings are basically the Knicks of the west coast, so yeah.
BaF Lakers:

Nikola Topic/Kasparas Jakucionis
VJ Edgecombe/Jrue Holiday
Shaedon Sharpe/Cedric Coward
Kyle Filipowski/Collin Murray-Boyles
Alex Sarr/Clint Capela

Bench: Malcolm Brogdon/Hansen Yang/Rocco Zikarsky/RJ Luis Jr.
