Is it me or does it seems like returning to the Knicks is a trend lately

Jeffries, Camby, Thomas

Maybe TKF will be happy again when we get Gallo in 2028

If Grunwald manages to pull all of this off and keep Lin, I will cut my hair to his likeness and get myself matching glasses and proclaim him GOAT.

not seeing the need for a back-up sg. If Fields could get away with playing sg then so can kidd. We only need a back-up sg if the euro busts.

Smith will get plenty of minutes at the 3 and I doubt that we are ready to just hand minutes to Prigoni.

Correct me if I'm wrong, I think HOU had zero Games on TV last year, guess how many games they will be on this year?

I hope Grunwald matches Lin to screw them over. 2 can play the doucebag game.

Please don't match the offer sheet , and let Lin go.
I bet Lin is not in the blueprint of Knick's future, base on what Knicks did this offseason
They just saw the $$ he brings

Otherwise they would not pursue Nash that aggressively.

Event though the head coach just named him the starter? Riiiiiggghhhhttt... :lol:

Yes, I can see Felton and Lin starting together. Kidd and JR off the bench.

He's not the only one that is happy, much of the board seems happy as well

Yea it's pretty ridiculous. Wherever he ends up, I hope he averages 24 and 8 so they can feel dumb.

Well i'm not too moved either way as a Blazer fan. We got a second round pick and Felton didn't work too well in Portland. Hopefully he does better in NYC.

PainKiller · Post #955 » by **PainKiller** » Sun Jul 15, 2012 3:19 am

Lol, i bet Huston fans are praying we don't match.

What was Woodson supposed to say, really?

BeagleBoss · Post #957 » by **BeagleBoss** » Sun Jul 15, 2012 3:19 am

Come on guys!!! We're matching Lin!!! Stop the craziness!! Felton replaces Fields! 3 years/$10m for Felton is way smarter than 3 years/$19m for Fields. We were looking for another guard anyway (Foye, Jones).

MaseInYourFace · Post #958 » by **MaseInYourFace** » Sun Jul 15, 2012 3:19 am

Man Camby, Kurt Thomas and Chandler on the same team. Bananas.

Amazing that this guy gets paid to do this... he hasn't even thought about the fact that we have one SG on our roster. Has no sources that "Lin is a goner" but reports it anyway.

he has sources, and hes right.
