TDL Archived: The 2nd Rnd Pick Yankee Swap

[omahen]

But the MIA trade as proposed wouldn't ensure the Knicks pick legally conveys.

True. Mavs would have 2023 (Mia), 2027 and 2029 available at TDL. Or full set of picks at draft night after Mavs pick conveys to NY. Mia 2023 would enable us to trade any combination of picks on draft night excluding Mavs 2023 pick. 2023 Mia with 2025/27/29 Mavs or 2024/26/28/30 Mavs picks while keeping Miami 2023. Of course it only makes sense to conduct such a deal if there is a great certainty something is lined up.
