Free agnecy rules made the New York Knicks losing Isaiah Hartenstein a bit of an inevitability.
An otherwise productive offseason for the Knicks was partly marred by Hartenstein's move to the Oklahoma City Thunder, denying New York further endeavors for one of its most prominent depth stars. Hartenstein was open to staying in Manhattan but couldn't deny a three-year, $87 million contract, far and away the largest payday of his NBA career.
It prompted a discussion on the "Roommates Show" podcast between Hartenstein's former teammates Jalen Brunson and Josh Hart, where the former called the concept of Bird Rights "the dumbest thing ever." Hart's biggest takeaway was that "not everyone is like Jalen," recalling Brunson's sacrificial contract extension that kept nine figures in the Knicks' pocket to pay for future assets. The extension more or less nullifies such a discussion, but the Knicks will get Brunson's Bird Rights this year when he plays his third season in Manhattan.
