Interesting piece on Knicks TDL discussions. Quickley, Reddish, Rose and Fournier are being discussed by their FO according to their sources. Knicks are mostly looking to add assets, not rotation players, as they have problems finding minutes as it is. In case of Fournier they are willing to take a worse contract and an asset. Not interested in moving him for a better contract by paying the asset. They value Quickley at FRP with interest around the league. They would like something for Reddish, but not much interest there around the league. Not much interest in Rose due to his decline and age.
This is my take related to Mavs options in these talks. Mavs would likely have to include a FRP, which Mavs would rightfully not be willing to do, as they need to preserve the assets. Mavs have similar problems in getting the minutes for any of those four and Mavs also mostly feature ex NY players, which NY said goodbye to for a reason. So I don't see Knicks and Mavs as natural partners in this discussions.
