There will likely be a lot of maneuvering in the Knicks coming offseason. Issues we can’t possibly conceive of at this moment, draft picks to either make or deal before lottery balls settle, what coach will be running the team, and a salary cap bump recently reportedly raising the total to $121M, with a luxury threshold of $147M. But really, because of the window the front office has set, locking in most of the spots next year, without being able to predict the unpredictable of this offseason, in my mind the two largest roster decisions (minus a joyless, isosceles triangle shaped head coach) the Knicks have in front of them are what to do about two of their more seasoned young stars: namely re-signing Mitchell Robinson and extending RJ Barrett.
