Did the Mavericks trick the Knicks into drafting Frank Ntilikina?

Prior to last year’s NBA Draft, the Dallas Maverick did a heck of a job making everyone believe that they were really interested in guard Frank Ntilikina.

As you can see by the tweet below, the Mavericks looked like they were very high on Ntilikina.

The Mavericks went as far as to leak that Ntilikina’s coach from France would coach the Mavs’ summer league team.
