While everyone is latching on to the idea that Dinwiddie would be one of the guys going out in the deal, I found this interesting article from a few years back about how Dinwiddie is tight with Kyrie and helped recruit him to Brooklyn:

It also features a Kidd reference: "Asked when things changed from Knicks to Nets for the six-time All-Star, Irving seemed to say that the Nets, because of his childhood as a Jason Kidd fan, held much more sway than believed."
So if Dallas is worried about Irving fitting in, not only could Kidd be an important factor but Dinwiddie could be part of the solution as well. Maybe we're thinking about it all wrong by assuming Dinwiddie is the guy going out. He could be part of the glue that makes it work.
