When Noah talks about the Knicks and his hometown, he comes across as genuine, proud and motivated to do right by the Big Apple.
The Knicks need to be at minimum a top four seed in the Eastern Conference if the season is to be considered a success. Preferably, they would finish second or third to avoid the Cavaliers until the Eastern Conference finals.
Vujacic, 32, played in 61 games last season, starting 25. He averaged 4.9 points per game.
Even with the glimpse of the long term in place, the Knicks are going to be judged by one thing, and one thing alone, following this free-spending offseason: wins.
The Knicks have 12 guaranteed contracts on their roster. Most fans say "that's all you need," but New York needs to have a deep bench with the age and injury history of some of its best players.
If you want to find the true genesis of the moves the Knicks made this offseason, you have to go back further than the Derrick Rose trade.
New Yorkers are renowned for knowing the difference between winners and losers... Except when it comes to the Knicks.

The Knicks' two priorities with their two guard needs should be defense and shooting.
Noah, 31, played eight seasons with the Bulls and was voted the NBA's Defensive Player of the Year after the 2013-14 season. He, however, is coming off an injury-plagued season.
Bazemore, who turns 27 on Friday, averaged 11.6 points and 5.1 rebounds last season, his first as a full-time starter. The 6-foot-5 guard is also known for his strong defense.
With Robin Lopez now in Chicago, the Knicks need a new starting center who can play 25 to 30 minutes per game.
Since the Knicks traded for Derrick Rose there hasn't been a player linked more to New York than Joakim Noah.
How far Jackson is willing to go to win now remains to be seen. He would be wise to proceed with caution. Entertaining thoughts of trading future draft picks would be foolish.
Kevin Durant is slated to hear pitches from six teams, and while the Knicks are not in that number, they don't appear to be out of the sweepstakes for the top NBA free agent.
