If you were memphis...

would you draft rubio and then come july 1st get involved in a sign and trade deal for david lee straight up (just throwing something like marko jaric's bad contract to even salaries)?
think about it this way, can the grizzlies get a better big man (what they need) than david lee with the second pick? For the knicks it seems like a no-brainer, they aren't signing him back unless it's a bargain anyway.

SG - Mayo
SF - Gay

trade the 2nd pick, the 27th pick and a veteran like Hakim Warrick and cash considerations to the Clippers to get the guy that we really want and need Blake Griffin

I'd prob take Rubio if I can get a good trade for him. There is no chance that I would take Rubio and keep him. If they want a keeper, they should take Harden for sure. Evans has memphis ties but Harden is much better.

Now they need to trade the

Now they need to trade the #2 pick for minnesota's #5 and #6 picks as they want Rubio. This way they can get two of Hill/Thabeet (if avail)/Evans/Harden (if avail)/Curry etc. These will be sound additions-role players who can help Mayo/Gay/Gasol get the team going up. They then have the option to keep Conley as a back up or deal him for another draft pick/more experienced players. Makes sense and they could fill other back up needs with their late picks.
