I kinda for got this. Shame can sign for 104% of the MLE, I think up to 4 years I guess?

Sign & Trade to Minny for Donte?
Allows the Knicks to stay flexible with an expiring at lower cost, brings Donte back home.
Gives Minny a needed 3&D playoff performer.
Package Deuce, Pacome & #24 to Hornets for Tidjane Salaun & #18.

If you over the second apron, you cannot do S&T. No idea if Knicks could do it.
DDV tore his achilles just a month ago. He is not playing next season one would gather. Tatum came back about 11 months from his and was not 100%. That was an anomaly.
DDV played all 82 games, a first for him and was having a great season (his career includes torn ACL and other injuries. He did play 81 games for us!)
I cry for him and so wish he was part of this with is 'Nova mates.
Maybe Leon cries also?
Sentiment aside, and our new found love for Shamet one might want to consider what going over the 2nd apron does for the team.
WE running it back after a chip or need to get better to win one? The East will improve next year.
Detroit has cap space.
Indy has a center and Hali.
Clev could trade Mobley for Giannis.
Orlando reboots some with new coach. (it worked for us!)
ATL will make moves and improve.
With Mitch in limbo and other aspects as much as I love Shamet and Deuce they both have considerations to ponder about their futures.
Knicks have to consider the realities beyond the emotional attachments.
We don't. The outcome of the finals will determine Leons path.

2 year deals make it manageable. 4 year deals are tough as injuries or fall off in play could make those deals harder to get out of when the tax starts kicking our ass. And teams will know Knicks are desperate to get out of it will .
Staying in the 2nd apron for only the financial punishment, and low level penalties for a year or 2 works.
Can't forget about MO.
We coming for the throne!!!
