Wiretap story says the Knicks would be willing to trade KP for a top 4 pick and an established starter. Another wiretap story says that the Pacers and Suns have been talking about Paul George for the #4 pick.
Hasty example of a 3 team trade:
Suns Get: PG #18, O'Quinn
Knicks get: #4 Thad Young, Brandon Knight
Pacers get: Porzingis, Courtney Lee and Lance Thomas
If PG wants to win he'd be better off in Phoenix with Bledsoe, Booker, Chriss and Bender than with the Lakers, this gets them out of Brandon Knights deal and the Knicks get the PG they want a starter at PF and the top 4 pick. The Suns dump Knight and get the #18 pick plus PG and a chance to get him to stay.
And obviously the Pacers get KP.

Re: Knicks willing to trade Porzingis for top 4 pick.
I would be absolutely ecstatic to end up with a front court of Porzingis and Turner. The return for the Knicks seems quite a bit lower than what they are trying to get from Boston, but if this is a deal that they say yes to then I would be all for it.
Make it happen KP.
