What kind of extension should the NY Knicks give to Reggie Bullock?

Reggie Bullock has been the heartbeat of this Knicks team this season and of everyone, I think he’s the most essential player on the list and must return next year.

His chemistry with Julius Randle is something of beauty and not something you just let go over a few million dollars.

He’s become one of the best 3-and-D role players in the league and is a favorite of Coach Thibodeau’s.

He’s never been a flashy player and rarely takes over a game but what he does bring is consistency on both ends of the floor and lights out shooting from long range.

Bullock averaged 11 points, 1.5 assists, and 3.4 rebounds per game on 41% shooting from behind the arc on 6 attempts per game.

His numbers are good but it’s more so about his wanting to be a Knick and being here in NY.

I’d really like the Knicks to thank Reggie the right way because he’s been down for the cause for years now and has proven time and time again how much being on this team means to him.

Verdict – Again, I think he signs a bit of a sweetheart deal and blesses the Knicks with a 3-year, $21 million deal and eventually retires in New York (hopefully)
