Knicks seem to be looking for a D&3 bench player and forwards in general.

Bring back the Golden Era
We need to be prepared
Mitch gets hurt
IHart (potentially) leaving to get that
A true backup for Brunson
We need more size (pause) and players who are not injury prone
Randle was out and you saw what it was @Knicksman20 said it

The biggest problem I see with Culver is he's only 6'6

The biggest problem is he sucks but it could be tied to the fact that measurement wise bro is a SG, 6’6 and 6’10 wingspan, but skillwise he is a 3&D SF.

Jokes aside I was pissed the Celtics got Derrick White, but he is a version of Josh Hart. A guy you need to win so it makes sense Hart recognized his game.

The KFS newsletter had an interesting idea today: What if the Knicks re-sign OG and Hartenstein while waiving Bogey's contract instead of keeping it for some star trade?
By KFS' math, these three moves would squeeze New York under the first apron. Then, they could offer the Full non-taxpayer MLE to a free agent, which would fit just under the second apron.
They could get extra wiggle room by trading their first-round picks for this offseason. There are also some pennies to be saved by waiving and stretching Bogey's remaining cap hit if need be.
The problem is, who fits the roster and won't get offered more than the MLE? They mention Malik Monk, Tyus Jones, and D'Angelo Russell—not the most exciting batch of players. I like Tyus, but I'd prefer taking our chances with Rokas' development since it'd be cheaper.

so who y'all drafting?
Could you still sign Bogey if you waive him?

He’s gonna get more money on the open market, than the Knicks would like to spend.
I think the plan is either trade him with draft picks or like @storyteller said waive him to get a MLE and go for either Tyus or CP3, and then use those picks for future dealing.
I would have said the first option of keeping him to trade is the most likeliest but he had two surgeries. Cold logic says maybe you drop him as an asset, grab another asset with the MLE and then flip/use the picks because picks have value.
