Should be noted that this whole situation could have been avoided if Phil gave him proper contract actually utilizing a smart CBA manipulation that most teams give to second round picks and undrafted / G-League guys.

Eh, not really. Take a look at a list of players who are getting 5 million and less and are not on rookie scale contracts. There are few who would help now / have potential to help in future.

also, when kanter opts in, we'll be over the cap anyway so it doesn't matter

the only scenario where it affects us is if kanter opts out and we don't re-sign KOQ

but even then, with where we are as a franchise and what free agency is like this year, we really shouldn't be trying to make any big signings this offseason anyways

Look at it as saving 5 million

b. be better than just letting the cap roll over for next year's free agency, after we get kp back and another top 10 pick



When did i say anything about us needing it next year or any year? I didn't is the answer. A poster said $5 mil isn't shyt in todays' NBA and all i was simply saying was that it was. My goodness people jump to conclusions around here...lol

so you agree that baker making 5 million doesn't affect us this offseason



Yes i do, i was just making a point that $5 can be useful in today's NBA is all.

It's funny that we're working him out though. I guess it shouldn't surprise me because our coaching search spanned the universe. We know he's not going to fall to us.

You think I should post on the regular forum that the Knicks have decided to work me out in pre-draft process as well? I'm technically a UDFA, but they wanted to get some eyes on me while they have some thoughts about other 6'5 guards fresh in their mind - easy to compare me to. They're really going all out here.



Oh crap, posted this on the regular forum and not the mod forum.
