This is a great move by Isiah, not only from a money and team chemistry standpoint, but also as a very strong reminder to other players like TT, who thinks that all they had to do was play a decent half a season last year, and now can relax cause they have a guaranteed contract.
If the knicks management was willing to spend ~$20mil to get rid of a non-productive player, it will show other guys on the team, if they feel they're safe.........they're dead wrong.
