Insane below market contract for Brunson. Woj says he'll make it back with the player option but idk how much longer he can stay at this level.

He's still getting a ton, but huge respect for leaving 113M on the table... And to think that cap will keep raising.

Welp. Free agency for next year is gone with Tatum winning a ring, and Brunson+Mitchell signing for 4 years.

Some look at it as him giving a discount while others say he's getting the guaranteed money asap. You're always 1 injury away from losing it all so I assume he put in a player option strategically.

Wow, that's huge, especially given OGs contract size.

My feelings are conflicted... I like the idea of being unselfish enough to do this, truly commendable... but I would be yelling at a family member/friend if they did this :lol:

After reading this last part, seems like Woj really went out of his way to at first make this seem like a bigger deal than it really is, probably as a favor to his CAA homies.

You only need to look at the career of Isaiah Thomas to understand why some guys take the guaranteed money early.

What a ****ing legend.

The Knicks got both of the wings I was hoping for the Pacers to get 1 of. I love their entire roster play style wise and all. Then their star does this.

I'm a closet Knicks fan. I may never say that again. :lol: But it'll probably be true for a year or two at least.

Shows you how much money Jalen is clearly making off the court as a star in New York (and well deserved). That's the only reason he can do something like this without blinking. Good for him and the Knicks. Hang the banner.

How many picks do we think cap circumvention is going to cost in Today's NBA?

Rose essentially already saying they've promised him a bigger contract in the future. Wolves fans are shaking.
