Knicks: #2 pick + 2021 Dallas pick + 2021 Knicks pick + Mitchell Robinson + Kevin Knox + Dennis Smith Junior
being better than
Boston: #18th pick via LAC + #22 pick + Tatum + Smart
Obviously if Boston stumps up the 18th from LAC, the 14th from SAC, the 22nd, the 2021 Memphis pick, plus Tatum, plus Brown, plus Smart, then I don't think that NY could beat that but I don't know if they'd be willing to give up EVERYTHING.
