Most beloved Knick of my lifetime, which basically means the 2000s...it's gonna have to be some real calculation on the franchise's side if they try to fukk dude over at any point

One thing I have learnt....majority of fans will side with the organization over the player when it's time to do a greasy thing

And then shrug it off as just business

If Jalen helps lead the Knicks to a ring. He doesn't pay for anything again and the Knicks give him a cushy job for the remainder of his days. Yea he took a hell of a payout short term but he will more than make that money back and the Knick GM knows how to make the most of that extra money.

He'll either be getting it under the table or guaranteed a dumb ass contract in a few years time to reimburse him. Either way Boston are still dominating the East for the foreseeable. Philly are better than them now too.

Good move for the Knicks but don't know about for Brunson. If he gets hurt next year all that loyalty shyt will go out the window. I understand trying to be a trendsetter but cats giving up money won't fly to much. And couldn't he have left 30-40 million on the table next year and just signed for like 200-210 or something?
