Dallas didn't want him enough or Knicks were unwilling to give him up?! What is Dallas doing with PG position anyway?
Or we didn’t want to trade him

https://sportsday.dallasnews.com/dallas-mavericks/mavericks/2019/01/31/every-definition-blockbuster-porzingis-trade-sets-mavs-viable-course-return-nba-elite-statusOn the same night in which Doncic learned he did not make the NBA All-Star team, the Mavericks acquired a reigning All-Star in Porzingis and, according to a league source, now will set their sights on a summer addition of a 28-year-old center who on Thursday became an All-Star himself.
He is 7-foot Orlando center Nikola Vucevic. He will become an unrestricted free agent at season's end. And one of his agents is Bill Duffy, who also represents Doncic.

My replay is based on wrong assumptions? WTF is that supposed to even mean?
You're coming into a Knicks forum less than 24 hours after we traded KP and you have the audacity to ask why we didn't include our lottery pick from last year so you can have your little utopic European triumvirate in Dallas?
In the famous words of every Knick poster on this forum- STFU and GTFO of here.My replay is based on wrong assumptions? WTF is that supposed to even mean?
It means you use straw man argument and have low IQ.
You are assuming that I am mavs fan ("You already got KP in the deal") probably based on my favorite team logo, while I literally changed my favorite team from knicks to mavs a couple hours ago.
You assume that I don't know who is Frank (You are explaining to me that "He's 6 "6 and defends 3 positions.") is while he has been my 2nd favorite knicks player ever since he was drafted and I have supported him on this forum.
You assume that I mean include Frank with other trade peaces unchanged ("You already got KP in the deal, you want our lottery pick from last year as well? why we didn't include our lottery pick from last year").

Lol it’s funny that mostly every single analyst, including ex NBA players are saying we either won the trade or finally made the right decision but Knick fans are crying.
Could we have traded him when Phil wanted to and not signed Timmy... absolutely! But we didn’t and Perry wasn’t here. So what we did NOW is what was best considering the circumstances.
5 major things from the trade
1. We have completely cleared the books while still keeping 4 of our rookies
2. We have 7 draft picks in 5 years
3. We added a point gaurd on a rookie deal that a lot of us around here wanted and that other NBA players look at as solid player
4. Say what you want but if it wasn’t KP fans would be ready to burn down the house if we offered a similar player 30mil coming off an ACL injury, that had knee and back problems already and only can play at a high level for 3-4 months. Not to say KP isn’t skilled but it’s concerns.
5. Say we would’ve kept KP and all he did was sign the QO as it been reported. That leaves us with Timmy still in the books, missing out on free agency, and without extra picks.

add Vonleh to that mix as well.
We should be in 2nd round pick asset acquisition right now. Try to get 2nd rounders and less productive expiring's for all of them.
kings fans seem to be willing to do a z-bo/koufus trade + two 2nd rounders for Deandre Jordan (that is an easy yes from the knicks as well).
Matthews makes a lot so I'm not sure what we would be able to find for him in terms of straight expirings from a good team. Maybe just do a Jabari for Wes Matthews + Lance Thomas type swap. Save 1 million for next year.
Vonleh maybe you can get a couple seconds or even maybe a late first from a team like the sixers....
Easily move mudiay to a team needing a backup pg for a 2nd rounder.
Kante will be a buyout.
Sign a couple d-league guys and go to work with
DSjr/Allen
Frank/Trier
Knox/Dotson
Parker/young swing forward
Mitch/Kornet
