Yes we could have "kept" him for exactly one more season after which he was planning to sign somewhere else and we would have gotten nothing for him. Also I am not a cap guru but from my understanding we were able to sign Randle withmoney we otherwise would have to spend on KP( which he declined to accept) I am sooo happy that KP's ugly as all hell situation became what it's did. We got Randle, Quickley, Rose , that's before we even used any of the lottery picks. Basically we made out like bandits given the situation we had on hand.

Either some of us have a short memory span or just not very knowledgeable of the situation. Do you not remember him threatening to go back to Latvia? Do you remember his brother rejecting the qualifying offer or whatever is called? You can not reject an offer that is not there. How it works, when you have a free agent that is restricted. He goes into free agency with restriction, if he signs, then he has to be willing to see his original team match and keep him. If he does not want that, he has to take the qualifying offer and then he can dictate his terms and become a FA a year after that. So what some fans think is that Porzingis would have taken a 1 year QO to become a FA in 2020, and then risk all that guaranteed money. I do not buy that for a second. The position Porzingis was in, there was no purpose of dictating. He had to get his guarantee money. What happens, when he goes to Dallas, who were not even on the alleged list of teams that his brother wanted him to play on. Without playing a single minute of basketball with Dallas, he signs the 5 year maximum contract. They were not on his list, that was rumored that his brother wanted him to go to. Now sure, one can argue that maybe Porzingis is not worth that maximum contract. Because of injuries. Sure, I can respect that take. My issue is that the Knicks pretended like Porzingis had all the power, when he had none. They get DeAndre, Wes Matthews, DSJ all backups or not in the league anymore players. Low draft picks. It was the wrong time to move him. I assure you, with Porzingis injury history, he is not passing up on a guaranteed contract offer as a restricted FA. If Dallas moves him, they will get much more asset value than the Knicks ever got. If WWW were in charge, this gets handled much better. Perry and Mills were a disaster. |

You've got to be kidding. An all-star level who didn't make the all star team? How does that work?
He couldn't stay on the court when he was here. He deserves all the crap he gets. Consider posting on UltimateMavs.com |

Agreed also randle is a huge upgrade who’s even shooting better from 3, rebounds better, passes better, can score better. If it wasn’t for the kp trade randle wouldn’t be here . And like I said randle is a huge upgrade. KP is a 50 game player always gets injured, as he will his whole career. He’s a super flawed player who struggles with consistency is a poor rebounder and a even worse passer . Sure at 7’3” he has the wow factor when he has 20pt games or some nice blocks. But the kid is bad candy looks good but taste awful. |

Say what you want about KP's availabilty, but he wasnt called "Unicorn" by Durant because his skills were run of the mill for a big.
Those still griping about the trade, get real. Mavs have to treat him like he's hurt wether KP is or not. Thats just to keep him healthy enough to play Robin. Imagine if he were the number one option? KP didnt want to be anything but the number one option on the Knicks. Believe thats why he didnt like the Knicks tanking for Zion. While he was rehabbing. Players dont normally complain the way he did, while being out for the season. Worse than anything Kyrie ever did while hurt. |

The rough English translation from Latvian for "Porzingis' is "whiny, lame, douche with schmuck brother."
