Spurs don't trade for Lee. Kanter won't walk. He has a player option.

Noah has 38 million guaranteed the next two years, may not even be good enough to make a roster and doesn't actually have to do anything right now. Why would he agree to take less money? They'll either have to stretch him or just keep paying him to be no where near the Knicks.

Also, it's a bad off-season to be a free agent and Kanter isn't getting a big contract. I highly doubt he opts out.

The Knicks aren't getting a first out of Lee. No one is willing to give up a 1sts for role players right now. Look aar all the solid wings that were being shopped for a 1st, but no one would pull the trigger on.

I don't see the appeal of Greg Monroe over Kanter and Beasley.

Why Kanter 1 more year is better than Monroe as will O'Quinn. Keep Noah. Stretch him out his final season unl.

Kanter isn't walking. He'll collect his option. Beasley should go to another team, unless Hornacek is canned and someone is hired who knows how to use him to the teams advantage. Even the "mature" Spurs have no interest in too old, and overpaid Lee. Monroe is basically Kanter. Draft a big, or wait till next season. Buy-out Noah is a great plan. Get that over with. Sooner the better. Ntilikina isn't starting over Mudiay/ Burke, or Hardaway. Experimenting with him at SG as well currently. Nets love them some Carroll better offer more than that. Bjelica is a good sign if MIN doesn't contest.
