Interview with former-Dallas Maverick Dennis Smith Jr.

In this weeks episode of the Step Back, Dalton (@dalton_trigg) and Matt (@MattGalatzan) welcome former Dallas Maverick point guard, Dennis Smith Jr. to the podcast, in his first on-air interview with a Dallas media entity since his trade to the New York. Dennis and the guys discuss Dennis’s adjustment to the New York lifestyle, what he thinks about his new team’s free agency moves this summer, his time in Dallas playing alongside Dirk, and his favorite in-game moments with the team. The guys then get into a deeper discussion with Dennis, focused on his mindset during and after the blockbuster trade that sent he, Wesley Matthews, and DeAndre Jordan to the Knicks, in return for Kristaps Porzingis near the trade deadline. They also get Dennis’ thoughts on a potential Christmas Day matchup with the Mavericks in Madison Square Garden next season. Things then wrap up with Smith’s thoughts on staying close with his former teammates, including his extremely tight relationship with current Maverick small forward, Dorian Finney-Smith, and why he thinks it is important to keep relationships like that alive in the League.
