This is why we traded him for nothing, folks. We weren't going to be able to afford him for the long-term, besides the fact that we now need to give Fears and Murray all of our PG minutes.

This is awesome for him. Gets a ring, plays where he grew up, and can actually afford to live in New York.

Put aside giving minutes to Fears, if the world champions can sign a $14M contract and you can’t, your front office is in complete shambles

They have more space under the apron than we do.

Brunson taking a discount has been the biggest reason for them to build that team.

Nah I ain't buying that. 4.6 mil per isn't terrible for a 4th guard at all

Put aside everything you just said, do you actually think Jose would take the same money to come here vs a big market team he just won a championship with?

That 3/14 would cost us 3/30 just for him to think about it.

4.6mil for the Knicks after winning a championship. Double/ triple that salary for him to choose Memphis, Nola, etccc in a losing situation.

We could afford it but pretty dumb given the thing we're putting aside.

I’m happy for him! He played his arse off for us and when he went to the Knicks. Glad what he deserves and in his hometown.
