We need to get some good vets to fill out our bench with especially now that we're in win now mode so lets hear some names that we can actually afford that can help us win next season and on.
I would love to see Lee back with the Knicks!

Goes to show you that there is a plethora of talent out there. Knicks are going to be ok.

+1.
Has the salary cap boom affected what a veteran's minimum looks like this year? Otherwise these guys may still get a pay day with teams trying to meet that floor.

Yeah i think we'll be fine with filling out the bench with older vets on one or two year deals. We've become a win now team and even though we're signing guys with injury problems i'm actually alright with going for it. I'm not as down on giving Noah 4 years as most others on here, would i of rather we would of given him 3 or even 2 years? Of course but we wouldn't of got him cause plenty of other teams would have given him the 4 years and i actually think he would of gotten more money per than what we gave him. I'd be much more nervous giving Rose a 3 or 4 year contract than i am with Noah and think he's gonna be just fine with us.
I would love to get D.Lee and J.Hill off of this list. Both guys can be really good bench pieces and both can play the 4 and the 5 but with Willy, KOQ, KP and Noah i don't see us needing both of these guys so we should get one and move on to getting guards and SF's. I unfortunately think someone is gonna take L.Thomas from us with a contract like 4 years at $40 mil which really sucks cause he would be perfect for us and i think with him and Noah and the energy they bring will rub off on all the other guys.
So what do we do at backup PG and backup SG?? Of course we still need our starting SG first but we're gonna need a good backup who i was hoping was gonna be J.Crawford but i think he's gonna end up staying with the Clippers so we're gonna need a 6th man that can come in and give us instant offense. I'm really starting to lean on maybe L.Stephenson to be our starting SG if we can't get C.Lee or E.Gordon and if we can then L.Stephenson would be a nice 6th man. There's still plenty of guys out there so i'm not all that nervous yet.

I doubt Stat has a vet minimum deal in mind.

My sentiments exactly... he just want to get back to being relevant again. Wine baths and bar mitzvahs... writing children's books and producing movies. Hasn't done any of that in Miami. At least that we know of because nobody cares. Dude is about himself and not about basketball.
