I think it sounds like he essentially signed a one year contract with little to no chance he picks up his player option the following year. He goes to NY for one year to up his value by scoring more, defending well, being a good teammate and playing in the east against inferior competition. By showing all of these things in NY next season, along with the salary cap going up after this coming season, I dont see him staying. It was essesntially signing a prove it one year deal and banking on himself to get a better contract this time next year.
