The Stoudemire/Felton duo was pretty kickass a year and a half ago before Felton was traded. Felton averaged 17/9 in his 1/2 season in NY and was actually getting a lot of All-Star votes. I'd like to see him back in New York. Felton/Lin/Melo/Stat/TC could be ridiculously good if Stat and Melo ever figure out how to play together.

Still, that's beyond ridiculous. I thought he was MLE talent at best.

He started well when he got to the Knicks but within about a month he was back to his horrible self.

Seriously, the Knicks fans were calling for his head.

That was during Dantoni's era to. They also had Gallo spreading the floor. He played good during that stretch none the less, not sure if he can replicate that under the new regime and with Melo there.

They should introduce Marhall Sr. and JaVale McGee's mama. They were made for each other.

Yeah, I can't see Felton and Melo working well together, especially with Woodson's iso-ball. That ball will move as predictably as the one they drop on New Year's Eve.

well Kidd is going to NY, likely to try and mentor Lin. No Felton there. Maybe Dallas needs DJA?
Who I woulda took:
2023: Miller | 2022: Duren | 2021: Bouknight, Jones | 2020: Ball | 2019: PJ | 2018: MPJ | 2017: Monk | 2016: Damian Jones | 2015: Winslow | 2014: Vonleh, Napier | 2013: McLemore | 2012: MKG | 2011: Knight, Kawhi

I just find it a little strange Kidd would leave DAL to backup Lin at the same time Hou is gutting their PGs. Does anyone think this means NY has told someone they're not going to match Lin and Hou knows he's coming their way?

Dallas needs to ship Dirk out NOW before its too late. Do they even make the playoffs next season with their current team?

One poster said Granger, Hansbrough, 2 firsts for Dirk. Who turns that down?

OMG I am watching the T-Wolves this season.

Kevin Love couldn't make me do it. Ricky Rubio and Derrick Williams couldn't make me do it. Brandon Roy (no matter how little meniscus is in those knees) is enough to make me watch the T-Wolves.

Mav's reaching out to Sessions?

How low is DJ's value right now? He can't crack a mention anywhere.

It is pretty low, I wonder if Houston would rather have DJA or Felton?

you would think that houston would have some interest in DJA and visa versa considering they need a pg, DJA lived in houston during highschool and lives there in the offseason and he went to college in texas.

I would hardly call it selling out... He makes half as much as he could have with the Celts, and gets to play with some all time greats... Selling out would be taking a max offer from us.

2023: Miller | 2022: Duren | 2021: Bouknight, Jones | 2020: Ball | 2019: PJ | 2018: MPJ | 2017: Monk | 2016: Damian Jones | 2015: Winslow | 2014: Vonleh, Napier | 2013: McLemore | 2012: MKG | 2011: Knight, Kawhi
