A package of Lowry + Boucher (and possibly a draft pick) is something I can see the Mavs FO considering.
For KP? LOL no chance

This is such a difficult decision to make...
Unicorns like Porzingis don't come around that often. On the other hand, if a 6-9 PF/C can shoot and defend as well as a 7-3 PF/C, and that 6-9 PF/C comes with healthier knees, ankles and back, as well as a more reasonable contract... I mean, of course it's more fun to watch a 7-3 player do the same things, but this is not a circus and contribution to winning is what really matters.
I appreciate the fact that the Mavs are sniffing around, but my guess is that Porzingis doesn't have enough value right now and the Mavs aren't gonna sell low. We'll see.

You think KP's defense is bad, those two are arguably the top 5 worst defenders in the league

Don’t care. Markkanen is the most underrated player in the league in my opinion, and Lavine is the perfect running mate next to Luka.
Porzingis, Johnson, Green, and picks for OPJ, Lavine, and Markkanen works. That deal would be perfect

I dont see how an empty stats, no D player like Lavine is the perfect running mate. he's essentially a young Kevin Martin. I respectfully disagree on Lauri too, he's good for some good offensive games here and there, but his D negates it. If we make a trade with Chi, it should be for Carter.
My ideal targets would be Siakam or Capela, but those arent happening.

For Wiggins + Wiseman maybe.

I have no reason to believe Golden States would give up that much value for KP.
Wiggins I could deal with in these circumstance's even if he's owed the following.
2020-21: $29,290,000
2021-22: $31,310,000
2022-23: $33,616,770

That’s part of the whole process of bringing in someone new to this team, who’s available. I’d love to add Siakam and/or Capela too but like you said, they’re not available. There are a lot of guys I’d like to add that aren’t available.
So the Mavs have to go with who is available and unfortunately not everyone that’s available will be a great fit. I don’t know if Levine is actually available or not but parts of his game actually do mesh very well with Luka’s game.
So the Mavs can’t just say, he’s not a perfect fit so we don’t want him. We know KP isn’t working right now. So even if it means acquiring a guy that may not be a perfect fit, at least he will be a better fit than KP. At the end of the day the Mavs may not be in any better position than they are now but at least they’re trying.
