The roster definitely looks much more competitive. But the salaries of some of these players (Marbury, Crawford) is pretty high.

The only thing I care about is having enough money to sign Lebron in two years. I really hope Isiah is keeping this in mind.

How does the signing of free agents work? Do you have to be under the cap to do so? What is the cap even?

Anyway though, this team does look pretty solid overall. I think they should be able to make it to the playoffs.

With the nba cap, what u need to know is that if you are over the cap u can only sign free agents from your own team, or use the mid-level exemption which is an amount of money determined by the average salary of the league. You can also do a sign and trade, but the knicks have no where near enough to trade for Lebron.

Lets not forget that the player needs to be with your team for three years for Bird rights. (Isiahs biggest mistake to date was only signing Ariza to a two year deal)
