The point about the Jamal trade is the cap room it leaves the Bulls after this year ( getting rid of worthless Jerome Williams) and not missing Jamal. The view from the Knicks is different because you'll never have cap room. That is what is great about trades. It can work out for both sides. As a Knick fan , you never have to concern yourself about over paying someone.
As a Bulls fan I'm happy about the Jamal trade and the Curry trade because we will have almost $20MM of cap space which hopefully will bring us some quality talent. Also if you guys don't make the playoffs then we'll have a lottery pick as well as the liklihood of being able to move up in 20067.

the cap space is only as useful as the player its used on.
there aren't many free agents worth more than the MLE next year , fewer still the number anyone thinks will leave their teams, i reserve judgement on cap space until i see what it brings, until then it basically doesn't do anything but gives its team a competitive disadvantage.
