The deal being close to be finalized between Dallas and New York is Kristaps Porzingis, Courtney Lee, Tim Hardaway Jr. for Dennis Smith Jr., DeAndre Jordan, Wes Matthews, and a pick, per league sources.
The Knicks would also have to add one $1.5M player to make salaries work.
Exactly. The Knicks have obviously been planning this for a while, KP got wind of it and wanted to meet to find out what the hell is going on, and Perry and Mills used Wojnarowski to make him look like the bad guy. Gross.

Dolan is going to need one of those bullet proof Popemobiles to get around town. They were already a full on shitshow, but they managed to top their own record here.
I can't see how they couldn't have done better. They dump THJ's salary, but I actually think he's a good fit on Dallas. Dennis Smith looks like a "good player on a bad team" kind of guy.

The Knicks are on way toward creating 2 max salary slots for next summer. When today started they didn¡¦t even have space for 1. They are preparing to swing big.
Every time you think the Knicks couldn't possibly sink lower, they hop in the DSRV and go another thousand feet down. Can't wait to see them fall to 5 in the lottery.
You could argue they should have traded him during the 2017 draft if this was going to happen anyway.
But I don’t think this is a bad trade. KP’s attitude has been troubling & he’s often hurt. Knick fans are just so beaten down that KP was hope. I like Perry & Fizdale, I trust what they are doing.
The Knicks would also receive future first-round draft compensation from the Mavericks; all per Marc Stein
Too bad no one will ever come to the fucking clown show organization to use it on.

By which time the Mavs with Doncic and KP will be a playoff team and the pick will be worthless. That's some stellar GMing by Scott Perry right there!
Can¡¦t wait to max out Tobias Harris and Boogie

Mavs do not have 2019 pick
Step one of *what*?! This seems a lot like the underwear gnomes in South Park.
I would've been happier if they did. This is just completely fucking stupid and ridiculous.
I’ll try to take the positive sign here. Who are the 2 maxes coming here? Can they move Jordan to a 3rd team for another asset?
This trade can also fuck up their pick. What a joke.
Even if this results in two stars this summer (ha!), it's still lousy process.
The best part is that the Mills is making the deal to get off of his own bad contract
I wish I were a Mavs fan. I dreamed about Luka and KP on the Knicks. Shit ain’t fair.
And he still has a job. Unbelievable.
However this went down - most likely a hit and run by Dolan and his two stooges - I really hate to see KP go.
