Nah. It is a horrible trade.

We are not starting the season with 4 point guards. Lin is gone.

Frank Isola: I always felt Knicks would match Lin. Of course, Berman of the Post has been reporting it exclusively (bet you won't be seeing that anymore) now

Frank Isola: Look at his this way: Knicks got Lin for nothing and made a lot of money off him. Rockets cut Lin & is now willing to pay Lin $25 million 2 minutes ago



JJ is a center who can mentor young players now ?

i think id rather that job go to Kurt Thomas, but hell if you wanna give him to us, thats fine too.....


:lol: Yeah I don't understand that first tweet either. if anything you'd want Kurt Thomas there to mentor Meyers Leonard. Meyers Leonard with Kurt Thomas personality could be a monster.

HUH? It's one thing to want Lin here (most do). It's another to start ranting and making up stuff. You have no idea if it was Lin that wants out. And "send press to show the players are traitors"? What does that mean? When have they ever done this to anyone? Even Marbury and Curry never got labeled as anything bad by the Knicks and they've been the 2 biggest blemishes in the eyes of fans for this franchise in recent memory.

look at the join date :thinking:

That would probably signal that we don't intend to match Lin.

Funny because the same exact thing could be said about Lin.

Why is it okay for Lin to only put up big numbers in D'Antoni's system, but not okay for anyone else?

Which is it, you can't have it both ways.


I am not talking about Lin. I am talking about no way that a team in win now mode is going to try and do it with raymond Felton as the starting PG for 3 years.

And one more thing. I still say this somehow goes back to Chris Paul. There may just be a method to the Knicks madness
