Still owed $45MM over the next two years. Contract is uninsured. Knicks already used their amnesty on Billups. But they did get one great year out of Amar'e. So there's that.
Damn, I feel for the guy. He played well in the past a couple of games. It's just really sad that he almost always can't get healthy.

So does this officially put an end to the debate that the Rockets should have traded for Amare a couple years ago?
