The Mavericks will introduce Monday their new franchise gem, Kristaps Porzingis, who didn’t want anything to do with New York any longer — as his Sunday morning Instagram post suggested.
Whether Porzingis made an exact trade demand, only he can confirm Monday in what figures to be a jovial affair at American Airlines Center in Dallas.
On the contrary, it was a sad Super Bowl Sunday at the Garden for the Knicks. The three new additions — Dennis Smith Jr., DeAndre Jordan and Wesley Matthews — were introduced after modest debuts at a no-frills press conference conspicuously devoid of smiles.
