Lakers address literally every single issue without devastating they're roster depth or trading all their picks. Also get to keep Vando and Reaves, which has been a stated priority for them.

Utah gets off Clarkson after a really bad season, get a young guy with promise and a flippable contract in vincent, plus two picks.

ATL gets an all-star, 2-way PF to pair with Trae on a fine contract and a cheap center to replace Capela for now. Another defensive wing and a big center and they'll be able to really build something without giving up any firsts (but also don't get back any).

Knicks get an expiring 6'10, win-now center as well as a sharpshooter in Bogdan - two guys that will both be incredibly meaningful come playoff time. And they get the money back from Capela at the end of the year to resign him at a better deal and use the rest to make another move. They're NOT getting firsts back for Julius Randle, which Knicks fans will hate. But the reality is that while he may be worth it, no team is giving up picks for him right now. They're in win-now mode and that window will close quickly - this move makes them better immediately so they should do it.

Bulls get a center they can try out after they move Vuc and a second. Also get a couple of players that may be tough to move, but you never know.
