I liked Felton, but he was not a perfect PG for this system. He struggled for a month and never really go the PnR down, but he was good enough to get the job done.

you're only saying that because he isn't here now. if he was, you'd be saying he's a perfect pg for this team.

This is a crucial game so I think MDA is reticent to take a chance on Lin, but it would be a good spot to see what he can do and maybe give us a spark. I just don't think it's a spot that MDA has confidence sticking him in there.
No. We can't trust Lin! We are betting off turning the ball over 7 out of 10 posessions. Please ... There is nothing to lose other than pride

felton was good but he did get burned out because we didn't have a dcent back pg. douglas is mor eof a two guard. The problem is that felton,chandler,and gallo fit the up tempo system well and was a big reasosn why we were a top offense last year.

PERFECT is STEVE NASH, Deron or CP3. Felton is better than anything we have now, but I never felt he was perfect. He was a bit heavy and wasn't the best finisher. But he was a good PG. That's all we need.

At this point Toney Douglas is neither a one or two guard. He is a zero guard.
Play JLIN

this is an obvious statement. dolan traded all the players that fit the coach and now expects to coach to change the way he coaches. it doesn't work that way.

I always believed that you should never boo your team at home, but this years Knick team has changed my opinion on this matter. I am sincerely hoping that if sloppy ball continues in the 2nd half, then the fans let them have it!!

Amare had a nice half but I just watched him on defence a number of eyes without taking my eyes off him and he just loafs. He does not fight for position. Its so damn frustrating - he is playing against Noah - what the fuk is he thinking or does he just not think.

We are playing a competent team for like a forth time this season. Unless we play Lin we will get blown out in the 3rd quarter. Of course we still might get blown out if we play him, but at least we'll have a chance.

It took time for him to understand the system but eventually he was successful because he had the tools which not many PGs do. The ones that do are locked up longterm for good money because like the C position good PGs are a commodity. Not every team has a quality one

TD tries to delivery a base line pass under the basket that sailed out of bounds and wasn't even close to reahing it's destination..
Shrump deliverys a bullet pass to a streaking melo for what should have been a easy layup, but ends up hitting the front of the rim.. assine
Denver must laugh all the time. they went from a team who was losing their star for maybe nothing to getting even more. Only Dolan can make that dream come true for other teams instead of his own
