Yeah, Felton and Chandler are getting up in years, so they won't play 82 games for dallas. A younger group, and like someone said, most likely Calderon and dalembert are probably the only pieces staying put
I am almost positive PJ gets into the first round with the assets he has now.Dont forget the Dallas Mavs has one of the NBA Top-5 strategic coaches in Rick Carlyle, who already knows that Tyson is a 24 minute player in the regular season games (80 game season).
Coach Carlyle will have Marion & Ellis change Felton's entire look as a PG. Felton & Harris will average 24 minutes each at the PG.
The Knicks got the 31st pick of the 2014 draft .. Big Props for Phil Jackson.
I don't think Calderon will be the Knicks starter PG, great pickup before draft night.
Dalembert played 80 games last season as the Mavs STOPPER, averaging 21 minutes per game.
Dalembert 20 minute performance played a big-role in all the 7 game series vs Champ Spurs.
I cant wait till draft night to see what else Phil Jackson add to the Knicks!!!

I knew Chandler was gone the moment he publicly criticized Woodson's offense. Regardless of what you think of Woodson its never a good look to have a player openly criticize a coach. Phil is old school. He's not going for that.
That aside, we all know Chandler is getting old and there is no better time than now to ship him out. Calderon is solid but he's putting up terrible numbers (11pts 4 assists last season). Though his average is low, he had some games last season where he put up as much as 22 points 8 assist. Maybe a new system is what he needs to be a more consistent contributor. Ether way its an upgrade from Felton.
I didn't see him play much last year but I think his problem was he was deferring to Monta and Dirk. I remember him from his Toronto days when he was the primary scorer, he could flat out score.Calderon is solid but he's putting up terrible numbers (11pts 4 assists last season).
