The David Lee and Nate Robinson saga came to an end this week. Lee’s agent had been seeking upwards of $11 million per year but the parties signed a deal for $7 million with a $1 million playoff bonus. It was pretty obvious that Lee wasn’t going to get what he was asking for. The Knicks only had to make a qualifying offer of $2.6 million. At the same time, it was clear that his contract would affect Nate Robinson’s deal. On Wednesday, Nate also reported signed a deal for an amount above his qualifying offer of $2.9 million. I guess we can all stop hating David Lee, Nate Robinson, and Donnie Walsh for now.
