The bag came in and then the bag got deeper.
Bobby Marks doin the maths
IQ wants to playThe percentage is why this won’t stop them from keeping IQ and Grimes. On the low the Knicks need to try and convince IQ to sign a 5 year deal, same for Grimes.
Because he’s not a point guard, he’s just filling a position of need and excelling at it.I don’t see a backup PG among any of them,
Also with the cap going up, Hart isn’t overpaid and if IQ is around that number the same goes for him. 20 mill is the new 14 Mil. Which isn’t chump change, but a fair price for a productive roleplayer.
Adding Josh Hart deal the Knicks contracts for 2024
Julius Randle: 30 million
RJ Barrett: 25 million
Jalen Brunson: 24 million
Josh Hart: 18 million
Mitchell Robinson: 14 million
Donte: 12 million
Grimes: 4 million
Deuce: 3 million
Sims: 2 million
This doesn’t include Immanuel Quickley who will probably be in that 18-20 million range
You can’t predict two years from now. Lock Quick up, the cap is raising 10% every year for the next 7 years, it’s smarter to get Quick under contract now.Because he’s not a point guard, he’s just filling a position of need and excelling at it.
Cap only raised 10%
You must be talking about the tv deal but still a few years before that happens.
Remember the Knicks have great contracts (minus Fournier) they spend wisely.
20m for a backup pg isn’t smart when Brunson and Randle re-up in 2 years
I completely agree, I also believe that while he is a backup 1 he is the best 2 guard on our rosterWithout Quick they aren’t even over the projected cap.

That is more an issue when he becomes a UFA. Getting an extension and him his first payday should override that for now.IQ wants to play
He is a PG and if you don’t think he is you have a dated, reductionist view of the position.Because he’s not a point guard, he’s just filling a position of need and excelling at it.
