They did this I believe to clear cap space to resign dirk nowitzki next year. Tyson chandler's defense and great rebounding ability is a main reason Dallas won the NBA championship last year.

The Knicks sent veteran center Ronny Turiaf, cash considerations and a 2013 second-round pick to Washington. They also dealt second-year guard Andy Rautins to the Dallas Mavericks. Dallas sent a second-round 2012 draft choice to Washington and the draft rights to Ahmad Nivins and Giorgos Printezis to New York. Washington also sent a future second round draft choice to Dallas.

In addition, to create enough cap space to sign Chandler, the Knicks waived veteran guard Chauncey Billups, designating him as the club's amnesty player. Billups and his $14.2 million contract will not count against the Knicks' salary cap.

Are the Knicks a championship caliber team?

Yes. With Carmelo already 1 of the best players in the NBA, and Amar'e doing pretty good himself, the Knicks are a championship caliber team. With Tyson Chandler also working down low with "Stat" they're even better. And out of no where comes the Yellow Mamba; Jeremy Lin. Another piece added on to an already good team. 4 solid Players that the Knicks have. the Knicks might not be able to win it all this year, but they have a great team and can win it all. All they need is a solid SG who they might opt for in this up-coming draft.
