Almost $10 million in the last year.  A disaster contract if Nash decides to go elsewhere.  Good chance he won't though as TOR is promising management clout after retirement down the line and he'll be raking in marketing money too.  Knicks aren't going to win with him anyhow (but he does live in NYC).

Remember that would be the cap hit for New York if they match.  The cap hit for Toronto is the average of all of the three years.

And they had excess cap room in Year 1 and he becomes an expiring contract, and a tradeable one, in Year 3.  This would only be really painful in Year 2, IMO.
Good points, but it's still a bad contract if Nash doesn't come there.
