unless he is traded later if they try and get a better pg, i think this isnt a great pick up.

Based on the last thread we had on Felton, not everyone is going to be thrilled by this. His arms really that short?

I knew this was coming --little disappointed that we are spending this much on this player but we have to expect something like this. It's not terrible --they want some stability--what can you say hes not a bad player

As short as these arms.

I admit I don't know much about the dude....

Is he as good as, better or worse than Duhon?

This could work out really well for the Knicks. Felton is very talented and D'Antoni runs a PG friendly offense. This roster is starting to take shape

He turned down 33mm from Charlotte so I would have to guess 40-mm$ over 5 or close to it--thats a chunk of change for this guy.

Wow more of the same from the Knicks. Overpaying for suspect players.

This pretty much rules out hopes of CP3 or Parker next year, doesn't it?

I suppose we could still have Felton/Melo/Gallo/Randolph/Amare at some point.

Felton is a worrisome signing.

Not all that high on this guy but I guess we got to do something.

But four YEARS of something? I don't know.... anyone care to enlighten me why four years of Felton locked up as starting PG is a GOOD thing heading forward? Not just in terms of Knicks being good but Knicks recruiting a second stud for Amare?

He is a legitimate starting PG who has good rebounds and steals stats. I really have not seen him play much, but that sounds like a nice combination of skills for a supporting cast player. We need the PG to get the ball to Amare, AR, and Gallo right? He seems like a nice fit for that. Does not look any more out of shape then Jax used to look like either.
A glimmer of hope maybe?!?

if anthony is the target, we need a better pg then felton in my view.

This is very likely the coaches call--saying he needs the PG to make it work and the team probably let him choose after we lost LBJ--thats it. Not a terrible player---a solid guy--it's probably the realistic option.
