Felton also said the Knicks deal with Jeremy Lin is off
Details

Just got off the phone with NBA free agent Raymond Felton. He says a deal is about to be completed sending him back to the NY Knicks.


How reliable is this source? Would the man lie about having a conversation about Felton?

I'm guessing his account was hacked, he was prank called, or Felton is smoking bath salts. But the Knicks have been eerily quiet lately, you never do know.

Or he's just trolling for followers since he only has about 100. He's already gotten about 20 more in the past few minutes

bringing fatty back doesn't make sense at any level. dolan is going to choose not to make money hand over fist so he can bring a worse player in? where they do that at

The guy's not that well known, so I doubt he'd be the target of a hacking. And in any case, the news being tweeted doesn't really seem like something someone would put out there just to troll.

if you read his twitter it looks like he doesn't even post himself. somebody who works for him just puts up relevant scores and happenings. i bet he was hacked.

Haggard recently did a piece on Felton so it is credible that they are in contact:

Then Isola tweets:

As Knicks wait for Jeremy Lin offer sheet they have had talks with (cheaper alternative) Raymond Felton. The plot thickens

Gadzuric + Bibby...

the problem is; why the hell we'll need someone like Felton and letting go a rising star like Lin(sanity) is... If this happens than we can officially announce Dolan's financial crisis :)

Report in NC that Raymond Felton reached agreement with Knicks untrue. Knicks, Felton's rep are talking, source close to discussions said.
