KP or his agent has to be the one that made this public. The Knicks need to be smart and get something good for him in a package or just keep him. Coming off an acl he will sign a deal.

agreed. They did something similar when Phil was here. Could be just blowing off steam

What the fuck is going on. He's being traded to the fucking Mavs. This shit must have gone down with Cuban last night.

Can’t really think of any KP deals that land you a foundation piece
What if we get Zion and he impresses lol. Look we don't have the money. That's what's keeping big-time free agents from coming here. Manage the cap and they will come. The key here is the assets we get back if a KP deal is done. This Perry's defining moment. Yeah, the Melo deal was nice and the MitchRob/Trier acquisitions we're solid, but this is where the rubber hits the road. Let's see how this pans out before we make any generalizations.
He’s gonr so I’m hearing. Wow

Mavs have nothing but Doncic. Cuban was at the game because it was Dirks last at MSG

I told you this would happen 3 months ago when the losing commence..
But ya'll was like KP LOVES NY, you don't know what your talking about,
NOBODY WANTS TO BE PART OF A LOSING, and the funny thing is, ya'll keep blaming the player and thinking they should accept losing and shut up..
THE other day DOLAN said NY needs a star, which is why he swoop in and Made the Melo deal happen..Less than 6 month later walsh stepped down..
When Phil was talking about trading KP he was fired 2 wks later
Watch what happens to this FO...and I've been telleing you this for the longest
I agree, losing does nothing. Fans are obsessed with tanking, probably the most thrown around word by fans. It kills culture. Teams who tank stay bad. Porzingis is a young player with the mind of a vet when it comes to this stuff. These guys don't like to lose, even when they are injured. I don't blame him for that, i blame the Knicks for not providing a better foundation and more reason for optimism. We have some nice young players, but only Knox has major upside, and is still a ways away. You can build better without mortgaging the future and trading draft picks. Can't just sit back and say these reclamation projects are part of the plan. Most of them will be gone, so we aren't really building anything sustainable. We need to add player who are part of the future and build with them. We need to get pass-first guards and show a sustainable offense. That's not happening. Porzingis clearly wants/wanted a reason to stay and we aren't giving him one aside from Knox.

I think we could do a lot worse than AD for KP
But honestly my Celtics fan friend just texted me asking what it would take. I said a package featuring Rozier. He said fine, how about Rosier, Brown, and a first. KP is great when available but he's frequently unavailable. If we could get two lotto picks that aren't busts and another first I think we'd have to consider it
Looking for more than a package featuring Rozier. Rozier upcoming contract has the potential to THJ part deux. Brown is intriguing and the first rounders always draw interest. But we'd need more.
look, I agree it takes more than a Rozier one-for-one. But remember Perry and Mills said that they "wanted to find their Rozier"? It's obvious we would need waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay more than Rozier. But I think he would be the headliner. I love Jaylen Brown. But I mean I think a more realistic offer is Rozier, Tatum, and a first. Sign me up for that
Wouldn't Tatum be the headliner be the headliner on Boston's end in a deal like that? I would consider that deal if we can move salary as well.

Agreed. I dont want DSJ for KP.
Fuck this! The mavs?! They don’t even have their draft pick for this year! I’m freaking out!
I really hope we get more than cap space for trading KP. If all we get is cap space and we strikeout this summer I think this may be it for me as a Knicks fan.

Brown plus one or two first rounders feels about right. Honestly, with the current state of the team, the Knicks do not really fit the KP timeline, since we will have to max him out this summer and lose any cap flexibility for the next four years. Better to stockpile rookie talent for another year or two, and then make a splash on the FA market once Timmy's contract runs out, adding an experienced star to a better developed young core.
After reading the article it seems a little blown out of proportion. Saying he left the impression isn't the same as him starting directly he wants to be traded. And he said he wants to play for a winner in NY while it's lead to believe that he is looking to play for any contender. It's clear the Knicks are gonna go hard with playoff moves directly after this draft after they attempt to nab a Zion etc.
Imo KP was scared to be shipped off to the Pelicans in an AD deal. So he went in to speak with management probably to claim that if they are to trade him to move home to a different team.

Wow! I missed this all in a few minutes.
We couldn’t find a better partner than Dallas?! The only player I’d want they’ll never trade
