With Noel, I think if they lost him, it would have been pretty difficult to replace. He had a market for his services and he's one of the better defensive bigs even with his bad hands.

Knicks will take about $20M off their cap space to re-sign Noel and Burks.
Still should have $30M+ left.
I believe the Knicks can go up to the cap and use their MLE for one of those contracts.
Bobby Marks

New York is sitting at $17M in room but that includes $15M in cap holds of Derrick Rose, Reggie Bullock and the $3.3M non guaranteed contract of Luca Vildoza.

These are both terrible signings. Greta job last year guys, 1 year $10 million each or see you later. Noel has the worst hands in nba history he literally cannot catch and dunk an alley oop

nah - if you operate as an under the cap team you don't have access to the MLE. They give you the room exception when you're under the cap - which is about half the MLE.

Burks defends, can shoot, and can operate as a secondary ball handler when needed. That's fair value for him and an easy to move deal. Not so sure about Noel.
I don't know how anyone can be upset at the Burks signing
He was one of about two guys off the bench who capable of putting up 20 a night when the starting 5 were cold. And he did it all the time. Noel is a different story. Both contracts are moveable. I don't understand the whining.

Alec Burks’ 3-year agreement with the Knicks is fully guaranteed, per SNY sources. ESPN first reported that Burks/Knicks have a 3-year, $30 million agreement.
for guys who (in my ignorance) seem to me not really 35-40 minute starting five guys you 'want' is mind blowing. I guess this is today's NBA.
Put it this way: If we signed two guys, both 35-40 minute starters, to just $10M per year in today's market, more than likely that would then mean that our team is not going to be very good.
I'm meh on the Burks and Noel deals. Both are probably worth that amount, just not sure i want the knicks to be the team to be paying it. The main concern is the Noel deal. Just don't want to be paying a backup center that much

Burks is clutch. He can defend. He can handle the point. He can score and get you 20 points. He's very versatile and valuable. I have no issue with his deal. And, as others have said, he can be a trade chip if need be.
How does Cameron Payne sign for 3 years $19 million at a position of need for us and we spend $10 per on Noel and Burks. Mitch is going to cost at least $15 now

It's pretty clear that Payne took less to stay in Phoenix where he resurrected his career
IQ/Burks/Grimes are currently on the roster. You have 3 competent bench SGs? I don't buy it.
I think it is more about flexibility. Q can play the 1 and 2. Burks can handle the point and play the 2 and 3. Grimes is a 2 and 3. There is still room for Fournier if they go in that direction.

10 million is nothing for solid role players who are going to give you 25 minutes and can start whem needed..

35-40 minute / night starting five guys start at $20M /year.
small rosters (compared to the other sports) mean guys get a bigger piece of the pie.
