The Knicks passed up on a number of premier talents, maneuvered around and ended up with three future first-round picks with varying degrees of protections. Was it all worth it? Gavin Schall goes solo to tell you why it wasn't.

Alex and Gavin are rejoined by Ricky O'Donnell of SB Nation to get into Jaden Hardy, Ochai Agbaji, a player that Ricky thinks could have All-Star potential in the second round, a breakdown of centers that could be available around the Knicks' 42nd pick, and an early preview of the 2023 draft class.

Alex and Gavin are joined by Ricky O'Donnell of SB Nation to talk about Jaden Ivey, and whether he'd be worth the potentially large trade package the Knicks would have to give up to acquire the fourth pick from the Kings in the NBA Draft. Then the guys talk about more players on Ricky's final big board, including Jalen Duren, Patrick Baldwin, and Dalen Terry.

avin Schall is joined by Locked On Nets Co-Host Adam Armbrecht to discuss if Kyrie Irving's talent is worth the trouble, what the Knicks would need to give up to facilitate a potential trade, the state of both franchises and much more!

Alex is joined again by Prez of The Strickland top go over The Strickland's final 2022 draft big board, including high ranks for AJ Griffin and Johnny Davis, Ousmane Dieng and Jalen Williams as potential star bets for the Knicks, and second round targets including a trio of centers: Ismael Kamagate, Christian Koloko, and Kai Sotto.

Could Jalen Duren be the next great defensive center in the NBA? Gavin Schall is joined by Mark Schindler of Basketball News to break it all down!

Alex is joined by Prez (@_prezidente on Twitter) of The Strickland to have a large-scale discussion about the role of misdirection and smokescreens by teams during draft season, including whether the Knicks' reported interest in the No. 4 pick in the draft and Jaden Ivey is for real, or all a ruse.

New York Knicks fans generally have not expressed a ton of enthusiasm for the team making a play for Malcolm Brogdon. But could the savvy physical vet be the perfect complement for Immanuel Quickley?

Alex is rejoined by JJ Jackson of Locked On Blue Devils for a bonus episode! Talking RJ Barrett and Cam Reddish, the seasons the former Duke players had in New York, and the expectations for the future.

Alex is joined by JJ Jackson of the Locked On Blue Devils podcast to get into AJ Griffin's medicals, role, and more at Duke. Then a discussion about Coach K's legacy at Duke and the tall task ahead of Jon Scheyer filling his shoes, why JJ thinks Mark Williams will make a great pro in the modern NBA, and whether Paolo Banchero is the type of guy that you make the big trade for at the top of the draft (if the Knicks should choose to try that route).

Alex and Gavin are joined by Corey Tulaba of No Ceilings and the Draftdaq podcast to get into some week-before-the-draft talk, including why Corey thinks AJ Griffin or Johnny Davis could be perfect fits for the Knicks, players he's gotten higher and lower on throughout the draft process, superlatives for various players in the draft, and some second round sleepers for the Knicks to consider at pick 42.

? Gavin Schall and Alex Wolfe are joined by Jay Stephens the host of the Locked On Buckeyes podcast to discuss Malaki Branham's potential as a potential New York Knick.

Alex and Gavin are joined by Ryan Harings, host of the Locked On Badgers podcast, to get into Johnny Davis' case as a potential 11th pick for the Knicks in the draft. Were his efficiency concerns overblown given his outsized offensive role and injury to end the season? How much would he benefit from a lesser role in the NBA? Could he be a defensive menace in New York? All those questions are answered and more!

Does it make sense for the New York Knicks to trade back in the 2022 Draft if they can acquire multiple first-round picks? Is RJ Barrett or Julius Randle the next Knick to be an all-star?

Alex and Gavin continue with your June mailbag questions, including which of four former past-their-prime Knicks point guards would be most fun on the current Knicks in their prime, an intriguing three-way deal between the Knicks, Kings, and Pacers that moves the Knicks up to the No. 4 pick in the NBA Draft, what veterans are most likely to be moved, and what international prospects people should be looking out for in the draft.

Would you trade a first-round pick for Malcolm Brogdon or Colin Sexton? Alex Wolfe and Gavin Schall are back to answer all of your questions in part two of this mailbag!

How interested are the Knicks in Dyson Daniels after he worked out for the team? We answer that and much more in this mailbag edition of the Locked On Knicks podcast.

Gavin is rejoined by Jake Rosen (@jakeinthepaint on Twitter) to talk more prospects in the 2022 NBA Draft, including Malaki Branham, AJ Griffin, Jalen Duren, and more. Then, the guys finish the show with some Knicks talk, because Jake is a lifelong Knicks fan!

Gavin is joined by Jake Rosen (@jakeinthepaint on Twitter) of Cerebro Sports and the Tag the Roll podcast to get into the case for trading up for Jaden Ivey if the Knicks think he's the real deal (regardless of future draft classes), why Shaedon Sharpe's hype train might be getting a little out of control, and the case for Johnny Davis as a good high-ceiling bet in the Knicks' range.

Alex and Gavin get into two bits of news about the Knicks: first, the hiring of longtime Leon Rose and Tom Thibodeau friend Rick Brunson, and what it means for their pursuit of Jalen Brunson in free agency, and secondly, a power ranking of teams ahead in the draft and their likelihood to be trade partners with the Knicks, following rumors that the Knicks might be interested in trading up for Jaden Ivey.

Gavin and Alex break down the elements of a champion and just how close the Knicks are to hitting each one before throwing it over to Peter Bukowski host of the Locked On Sports Today show for his interview with Robert Horry previewing the NBA Finals.

Alex is joined by Rafael Barlowe of the NBA Big Board Podcast and Big Board newsletter to break down the case for Duke's Mark Williams and Memphis' Jalen Duren as potential picks for the Knicks at 11 in the NBA Draft, after Rafael mocked Williams to the Knicks in his most recent mock draft. The guys also debate the merits of taking a center that high in the draft, if a more "modern" big in Tari Eason could be a better pick, and some options for the Knicks at pick 42 to address their big man situation, including Christian Koloko and Ismael Kamagate.

What does it really take to win a championship?

Draft expert PD Web drops by to share who he thinks is the better prospect for the Knicks between Shaedon Sharpe and Jaden Ivy before explaining why Victor Webanyama might be the best prospect since Lew Alcindor.
