According to ESPN's Marc Stein, the Knicks and the Dallas Mavericks are currently in talks to make a deal that would send Tyson Chandler and Raymond Felton to the Mavs in exchange for Samuel Dalembert, Jose Calderón, and Shane Larkin (there's a chance that Wayne Ellington could be involved in the trade, too).
