2.8
2.1
1.3
(760,000+)
6.96 X 150%= 10.44

Is it really a big deal turning down 2 mill to go to a winning team?

In the last DECADE, the 2 clubs have has similar win %'s.
Toronto went the playoff twice and lost in first round both times (3 total wins)
We've been 3 times and you know the deal (1 win... total)

We are winning now, but...

I still don't see this happening.

Smith, which means Nash almost certainly would have to take the Knicks' taxpayer midlevel exception, which would start at $3.09 million. He'd be taking about $10 million a year less than his market value, give or take, while playing the same position as Lin, a marketing cash cow. Move along, people, nothing to see here."

This was probably written about a week ago before anyone took the time to investigate sign and trade scenarios.

We have *very* few trade assets. Shumpert and Fields basically.

You are right. In this scenario Phoenix would be doing Nash a favor while adding a player they like in Fields. The only other player that Phoenix would be committed to financially would be Toney Douglas, but the Knicks would also include 3M cash which would pay for TD with 1M to spare.

Because Nash might leave anyway. If Nash leaves and Phoenix covets Fields at least a little, why not facilitate a sign and trade to the Knicks? Both parties would be helped.
