It’s funnier that people are flatly denying that LA was where he wanted to be… he was an unrestricted free agent and could have freely gone where in the hell ever he wanted to be. As a loyal person, he did not leave them with nothing in return and for that he should be commended. However, the first part of a sign-and-trade is that the player is in agreement to play for the team he is being traded to. It is as good a s free agent signing in that regard.
The Knicks might have had a chance, but never much of one, apparently
