Message: [QUOTE="Knicks411, post: 66194, member: 767"] We have no idea what the cap is going to be. They have $41 million in committed salaries for the next season, for 3 guys. Throw in the cap holds, plus I assume they aren't going to have all minimum salary guys, and there isn't a whole lot of room there. Also, the Knicks are over the cap, they're at $60 million right now, cap is $58 million for next year. Can't imagine the cap is going to be any higher than $58 million, revenues are going up, but they're going from 57% to probably 51% or less. And Melo and Stat are getting raises every year, they combine to make about $43 million in 2014, and $46 million in 2015. It's going to be tough, Howard/Paul would have to take a massive pay cut I'm thinking. Nope, I thought it may have been that way, but when a team signs a player for 5 years, they get him for 5 years, not 5 seasons. Paul and Howard will be eligible for free agency next summer, assuming the lockout is over. [/QUOTE]
