Fix the Mavs:
1. Step "Cash in on Brunson"
He is ready for his own team.
Knicks: K. Walker, 23er first from mavs
Mavs: J. Brunson, WCS (expiring)
This frees all Mavspicks.
2. Step "all in"
Toronto sends: Siakam, Dragic
Toronto receives: Porzingis, LeVert
Detroit sends: Grant
Detroit receives: Dragic (Buyout), 2 Firstrounder 22 + 26
Indiana sends: Turner, LeVert
Indiana receives (Carlisles Darlings) : DFS, Powell, THJ, Firstrounder 24
Dallas sends: Porzingis, THJ, Powell, DFS, WCS, Brunson, 3 Firstrounder 22, 24, 26
Dallas receives: Siakam, Grant, Turner, Walker and 2 Rosterspots for Dragic, Criss
S5: Turner/ Siakam/ Grant/ Green/ Doncic
Reserve: Kleber/ Criss/ Bullock/.

Brunson does not get the Mavs a first as a "rental".

Why not? He's really good and we got his bird rights. Name a better PG, who is gettable for one First. This would be a steal for a player like Brunson. And he is well known and beloved by the Knicks. If they trade for him, he'll will resign with them.

If that is the case, then why not just make Brunson an offer for next season and keep the first?

Y never trade the whole team. But Mavs may go after Turner or Collins and maybe Beal or McCollum.
But Brunson an also DFS may become traded.
NYK would easy send Walker and the 2023 1st back. Since they do not have CAP space, also not next year. But having traded for Brunson, they would have the bird rights to sign him anyway. And Brunson would be a good starter to improve Knicks to go to the finals.
Brunson, Barrett, Reddick . nice, young backcourt!

Pascal and Dragic for Levert and KP without picks? That's a hard pass.

The addition of Brunson does not make the Knicks a top-3 team in the East (thus able to get to Finals) .
