I hope such a low deal doesn't mean some under-the-table promise of giving him twice the amount next year. Just defend and make your shots.

Probably just rehabbing his value. He had a bad year last year.

I'm surprised, this is a great deal. Even lower than Shumpert.

We just got a very solid player at a very fair deal. Hope he can bounce back from last year and stay healthy

Who is Ramona Shelburne?

If true this is actually amazing considering what some of these guys yesterday were getting.

We didn't overpay? Thank you Phil! Welcome to the Knicks, Arron.

Punxsutawney Phil came out of his hole this morning.

That's a fantastic deal given the market.

Can get Monroe and a decent third guy now too.

This probably means we are losing out on the big ticket free agents. Now Phil will try to bring in role players and complementary pieces to fill out the roster, while maintaining cap flexibility.

I don't think is a very good sign. We should of waited it out now we've completely killed any chance at obtaining a big free agent. Best we can do now is Monroe at he max.

Anyone else having a problem with posting/editing?

4th time I try and say this: 1st year could be as low as 7.25M, which leaves space for Monroe and another Afflalo level player.

Not true. Still have room for a big free agent. We can stretch Calderon if need be also.
