New York Knicks: Hold my beer. In a stunning move, the Knicks’ front office signed guard Tim Hardaway Jr., a restricted free agent, to a four-year, $71 million offer sheet on Thursday. For Hardaway to justify a $17.8 million average annual salary, he would have to improve his game to a level seen by Washington Wizards shooting guard Bradley Beal during the 2016-17 regular season. Beal averaged 32.7 points per 100 possessions last season, shooting 40.4 percent from three-point range with an overall true shooting percentage of 60.4 percent. Even the comparable players to Hardaway do not inspire much confidence.
