I bet they S&T for Felton AND match Lin.

This gives Jeremy something to think about and is Dolan's way of letting him know the redo of the offer sheet was not appreciated.

The Knicks are considering signing UFA Raymond Felton and letting RFA Jeremy Lin walk to the Rockets, a source close to situation confirms.

And there goes all the good this team did this offseason. What a joke this organization is. FU Dolan. FU Woodson. FU Knicks.

Unless Lin, the Rockets, and the Knicks consent.

However, Felton over Lin is just a bad bad decision...

I know that in the Knicks family and also in the city of NY people usually have a short memory, but, FRAK, Felton played like an All Star for the Knicks for 4 months, he was great, he's a better PG than Lin, maybe Lin is a better scorer, but we don't really need that, Felton if he came in shape and motivated, can play D, pass the ball, hit open shots, and he has a true Knick personality.

And he'd be really cheap cause he had the worst season of his career in Portland, but he's still young, he pair perfectly fine with Melo and Stoudemire, and he has experience...

For me, no doubts at all, I'd choose Felton all over again.

Well last year this team was always short on point guards, I guess they don't want a repeat of that!

It all comes down to what they think Lin's ceiling is. It's not certain while Felton is a known commodity. That's how I think they are looking at it.

Woodson also said that Lin will be the starting poing guard for the Knicks next season, recently.
