It only make sense to trade the Knicks pick to the bulls if we have another trade on the table. Otherwise just keep it and draft a player.

We were able to get Grant for a pick last summer. I wonder what we could get for this pick?
 
Cronin has told us what he's going to do - package the two #1s and some seconds and ? hopefully for a trade of a difference maker.

I think 1 of two things happen with the pick

A. It goes to the Bulls in exchange for our own pick back

B. It gets moved along with our lotto pick, Simons, Nurk, etc. to improve and balance the roster

Agreed....but depending on where the pick is and who is available. #1, you keep it. #2? 'Westbrook with a better shot' is quite a player. The only player I'm trading a high lottery pick for is Embiid and that comes with massive injury risks averaging 56 games a year and that is AFTER sitting out the first 2 years completely. A couple of those seasons were shortened due to Covid, so the average games isn't quite that bad, but it's still not great. He's never played over 68 games in a season.

He will be 29 next season, so that would help to extend Dame's window, but all of this is reliant on Harden leaving and Embiid asking out....and then Morey not asking for Sharpe, Simons, and 6 Draft picks/swaps. Seems very unlikely.

I couldn’t agree more. It’s just my opinion that those will be what happens. Not what should happen. Top 3 pick, we should keep it. There are guys at 4-6 that would be great picks.
 
So it'll be pick #23 we get from NY if:

NY loses to Indy this morning
Or NY beats Indy but Sacramento then beats Denver

So only way it drops to pick #24 is if all three of these happen;
NY beats Indy
Sacramento loses to Denver
NY loses coin flip to Sacramento
 
I tried that simulator 10 times up up #1 on second try but it came up #7 4 times.

First off Knicks have no reason to try to beat Indy really. They are not playing for a pick.
Next Sacramento has no reason to try to beat Denver?
Now the Pacers do have a reason to lose but the Magic should lose but that isn't a given because the Heat do not really need the win.
Weird end of season.
Everyone is tanking.
 
So if I remember correctly, the team with the worst record (Detroit) can fall no further than 5th.
But what about Houston and SA......how far can they fall?

Everyone starting at the tenth spot in the lotto can fall back four spots.
 
I bet the knicks were counting on getting the Mav's pick this year when they traded their first. Now the Mav's are tanking and the pick is top 10 protected so the knicks are not going to get it now.

It would be nice for the Knicks to lose this game that they are leading right now against Indy but Indy has to be playing to lose and the Knicks don't have anything to play for. If the Knicks win that game it would then be nice to see the Kings beat the Suns and neither of them have anything to play for.

If the Knicks win and the Kings lose we'll have a coin flip with the Kings to see which one of us gets the 23rd pick and which one gets the 24th.
 
I’m using this pick to trade down for Zach Edey.

But I agree - this pick is getting packaged.
 
Give it to Chicago so they can piss off.
 
Chicago has no first this year due to the Vucevic trade. Yeah they could use it
 
It's gone. With the 23rd pick in the 2023 NBA Draft, the Chicago Bulls select....
