Brunson wanted so badly to be in NY that I think there were rumblings of tampering. The deal seemed done before free agency even kicked off (which NEVER happens, NEVER EVER).
All y'all with lineups/ moves predicated on the idea of Fred being here much longer/ long term ..not happening. That contract is ultimately a facilitating piece...with assets attached.
You’re crazy if you think that contract is anything but a placeholder for the extensions of Sengun and Green. I wish you were right, but I am pessimistic.
