Is he coming over this year?


I think that's up to NY but it sounds like Diebler's rights and another stashed Euro are apart of the package.

Royce Young ‏@dailythunder

Knicks likely aren't matching on Jeremy Lin clearly out of fear of the luxury tax in 2015. Adam Silver is fistpumping somewhere right now.

He said that about a week ago, when Lin wasn't getting poison pilled and when Felton wasn't on the team. It's one thing to say Lin's going to be the starter when we have Lin on a 7mill/per and Kidd on the bench, but the entire landscaped has been overturned.


He said it 3 days ago stop stretching the truth.

I just find it so damn hard to believe that the Knicks would let LIN leave after all the hype and cheer he brought to the garden. I have a strong feeling that if we dont match the offer. Knick fans in NY are going to go crazy.

I'll tell you one thing though. I have not been to exciting for a season to start in many many years.

How pissed would Felton be if we traded him again at the trading deadline? :lol:

Ok, I like depth and all but if we bring Lin we will have some issues IMO. Woodson will have to do a heck of a job coaching to keep everyone on the same page. Dudes will really have to buy into team first. Our depth with Lin is looking bonkers...

If Raymond Felton will be getting a 3 yr/10M deal with the Knicks, why didn't we just go after a younger, more promising player in D.J. Augustin? Augustin received a 1 yr/3.5M deal with the Indiana Pacers. With moves like this, I continue to believe my theory that the NY Knicks will find it hard to win a championship with Dolan as owner...

You must not have seen the posts begging us to let Lin go and calling him trash. I envy you.

Telling you this, Diebler could be a steal, the guy is a Steve Novak SG, he has the height too, about 6.7 with good wingspan, can pass, he was a better player than Fields in college, that's for sure.

So I just got home from summer league and i was sitting behind Baron Davis and Coach Woodson. Woody was on the phone for a good 15min and got up with a really upset look on his face. As he left Baron asked him where he was going. He told him he had to go to a "meeting" with still the same sad upset look on his face. He kinda always has that look on his face but something inside me made me think that we weren't gonna keep Lin...
