Knicks · ESPN: Knicks make Melo max offer (page 1)

Papabear Says

See I told you so.

I thought they would. I just don't think he'll take it. Hope we keep him though.

Is this as big a deal as we've made it out to be. I for one, hated the idea of Melo getting the max but only from the perspective of it crippling our financial maneuverability moving forward. But with the new TV deal expected to spike the cap, will that max deal matter that much in the long-run? ....If that's the case, I might need to personally apologize to Jose Calderon, LMFAO.

i expect a lockout before the cap goes up by a ton.

Already a thread on this:

THE FORMULA!!!!!!!! 14 MILLION DOLLars!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Now does Melo take less and come out looking like a hero or does he take the max $130mil? $25-30mil annually?
