Re: Felton traded to Knicks; Not matching Lin? (part 4)

It really does sound like Dolan has the personality type such that once someone crosses him or he feels betrayed, he is spiteful and gets into a pissing contest. It's so personal.

So there may not be much hope left unless Charles intervenes. Please discipline your son Charles. He is out of control again.

Felton comes to Dolan's 4th of July party and stuff his fat face ... and Dolan is tickled pink.

There's just no way we're ever getting anywhere with this kind of BS.

Finally ..you have blamed the right person throughout.

Blame is not a penis. It can go in more than one place at the same time.

How is a contract ridiculous that everybody saw coming?

The rules allow this. It's a clear loophole with the balloon payment at the end.

Furthermore, it only averages to $8M per over 3 years. That's not high for Lin.

The contract isn't overpaying, based on Lin's performance. I do think it's bad that Lin allowed the Rockets to structure it in a way that so hostile to the Knicks. But saying he doesn't deserve $8 million per year is just wrong.

Yeah it's not bad as an average. I hate this rule too -- it's pointless and dumb. But the poison pill thing goes way back.

The NBA clearly does not have a very clear or sensible CBA. It's random. So we're getting killed by something random.
