The Knicks could just be making Lin sweat. Or they really don't believe he is worth the contract. You have to wonder because it's already been reported that Woodson has been critical/cool on Lin whenever the subject comes up.

I wont blame Dolan... Lin now looks more like Harvard economics graduate than like Harvard basketball players who came here to make the Story of the Year!!

You all were saying that Dolan will match any offer, cuz he is a cash-cow; but even if he does that, you have to be sure that Jimmy will take it with a pinch of salt!!

Ian Begley ‏@IanBegley
Raymond Felton's agent, Tony Dutt, says that #Knicks are in talks to acquire Felton. If Knicks don't sign Lin, they could get Felton in S&T.

What is true is Felton has always been on the radar as a Plan B for both Nash/Kidd but also Lin. Still don’t see Knicks letting Lin go.

he already signed the contract with the rockets. he couldn't care less if the knicks matched or not he's still going to get his $15M in year 3 of his contract.

Rockets only PG on the roster is Douglas, so i dont think they'd mind paying Lin

I think Lin prefers playing in New York though.

No chance
Pure bs

At least in my opinion.

Knicks are all in right now, from all accounts and perspectives, and it makes no sense to do this

However we might be able to trade Gadzuric for Felton
But with recent signings we not doing it

why are all of you so depressed about the possibility?

Lin is so overhyped, Felton is by far the better player, Lin isn't going to be a star, at best a nice back-up PG.
