That's fine but that saves very little and likely doesn't accomplish getting better players. There isn't much difference between crappy NBA players and AAAA players.
I would like to see if Withey is worth a damn though.
Munford doesnt bring the ball up the court @$$ first at least

Bucks: Willy Hernangomez, Lance Thomas, Ron Baker
Knicks: Thon, Delly, DJ Wilson
Bledsoe/Baker
Brogdon/Snell
Middleton/Jabari
Giannis/Thomas/
Henson/Hernangomez
The Knicks get the three worst players in the deal.

If the results the same does it matter?

Nets pick is currently sitting 9th, you are overvaluing the pick since it says Nets next to it. Middleton is definitely worth a mid/late lottery pick especially if you take on TT
its also 3 games or so from being in the top 6 and all it takes it one lucky ball to get a star

It’s an open secret that the Bucks, after acquiring Eric Bledsoe from Phoenix to pair Bledsoe’s athleticism with the frontcourt sensation Giannis Antetokounmpo, are trying to pull off a trade for DeAndre Jordan to address a need for more rim protection. But Jabari Parker will soon be back from injury, which almost guarantees a needed boost to Milwaukee’s meek second unit.

Do we pay 2/4? 3/4? 4/4?
If we drop Delly or Snell that would make it easier to pay 3 but I have a hard time seeing us keeping all 4.
The Pistons are openly pursuing roster upgrades via trade, preferring to focus on the promise they see in their highs to date — wins over the West’s top teams (Golden State, Houston and Minnesota twice) — as opposed to their various lows (Reggie Jackson’s ankle injury, an 0-7 start to the month of December and a recent 3-10 funk on the road). Which isn’t surprising when the coach (Stan Van Gundy) runs the front office, too.
The Clippers have had too many injuries in the wake of Chris Paul’s departure to come down hard on Coach Doc Rivers for the team’s struggles to stay in the West’s top eight. But the club’s deep-pocketed owner, Steve Ballmer, wants to win so badly that Rivers’s future remains a subject of great curiosity — in addition to DeAndre Jordan’s and that of the veteran guard Lou Williams amid Williams’ unexpectedly potent season.
The Michael Jordan-owned Hornets are going nowhere. Yet we advise you to track them at least through the Feb. 8 trade deadline because Charlotte will probably be forced to consider dealing Kemba Walker. If Walker stays, Jordan risks losing his best player without compensation in the summer of 2019 — or, perhaps worse, paying big bucks to hang on to him instead of starting an overdue tear-down of a pricey but mediocre roster.
It might go down as one of the great unsolved mysteries of our time: How did this Magic team start 8-4? Orlando has since gone a ghastly 4-27, which will most likely lead to a fire sale at next month’s trade deadline. Rival executives expect Jeff Weltman, Orlando’s new team president, to aggressively hunt for new homes for the likes of Evan Fournier, Elfrid Payton and Mario Hezonja, given that Nikola Vucevic’s broken finger is likely to preclude dealing the center.

Brogdon's becoming a must-sign.

Just confirms how badly the front office has botched the draft and free agency the last three years that we are at this point.
There are literally Realgm posters who would have drafted better with no pro scouting department at their disposal. Some of the decisions are so mind numbing that its unbelievable.

I am pretty certain Jabari and Brogs will get their money, Middleton and Bledsoe will be the problem.
