The missing piece is the puzzle.

I don't think there's a true "missing piece," but I don't think they'll make trades at the margins. If they make a move it'll be an attempt to package a few guys for one big upgrade. Which is to say, I don't think they'd trade JUST IQ unless it became clear they can't re-sign him. But they could try to turn IQ and another young wing (probably RJ) into the parts of a package for some "star" to pair with Brunson.
I think IQ, RJ, and Fournier are their most expendable pieces right now. But they'd probably be open to parting with Grimes or Mitch for the right return (ie: Mitch out only for a perceived "star" big)
I agree there's no available missing piece. The clock on IQ is ticking though so, hopefully something that makes sense pops up. They didn't sign DVC for nothing.

I hope we can trade Fournier for a 6’8 plus F
I got Bojan as a trade target should it become an issue, which it might should Randle go down with an injury.

Why even watch Preseason games? It doesn't count.

Re: PG: Deuce > Donte
Let’s all be honest! Thibs is going to run this guard rotation until he finds the right mix and it might take 20-30 games to get it right at the expense of not having a record over .500 or close to it.

Re: PG: Deuce > Donte
the only non expendable piece is brunson, everybody else could and should be traded for the right price
