BRUNSON BURNER: to NYK for 4yrs/$104M (no SnT) | NYK docked 2025 2nd for tampering

[audiosway]

Probably 5/$140 (assuming the contract has yearly raises) would be more on par with what the Knicks are offering except with the additional year and if an overpay is needed, 5/$150 is probably what Dallas would need to offer for the money whip, if not more.  4/$120 if Jalen wanted a shorter contract to get to his next contract sooner though I guess that could be accomplished with options on the 5 year as well.

Another thing being missed right now is that Jason Kidd is a HOF PG. If he thought Brunson was as indispensable as people on this forum do as a player or an asset...he would be going to bat for JB to get paid. I'm telling you guys that this is the Knicks doing Knick things.

I love Brunson but he is more like a Derrick Fisher type PG. Once teams start game planning for him he will look overpaid. He's a good player so he will adjust and learn to work around it. But, he's not going to go to NY and look like a superstar that got away.
