Horror show

If you think the Celtics cap situation is a little scary, take a look at these numbers.  Hoopshype hasn't updated the page yet, but Steve Francis's contract is about $14 million this year, with three years left on the deal, and a roughly $1 million increase per year.  So here's the Knicks cap situation over the next few years just for the 5 players who are signed through the 2008-2009 season (Stephon Marbury, Steve Francis, Jamal Crawford, Quentin Richardson, and Jerome James).
 
2006/2007 -- $53 million
2007/2008 -- $58 million
2008/2009 -- $62 million
 
Yikes.
