Another alternative: Carroll, Thomas, Barea + a minimum-salary pickup for Eddy Curry, plus cash, picks. Saves the Knicks even more cap room for next year, still saves the Mavs money long-term and nets them some assets.
I just want to figure out a way for the Mavs to fleece the Knicks.
I actually prefer the first trade I put out there, as Jeffries & Hill are both potentially useful bench players; Curry would be pure fodder for future trades.
