in exactly 1.5 years.

coincidentally, both Felton & Nash are FA's after next season according to Hoopshype... this might be an interesting conversation down the road.

Not 100% sure, but I think the Knicks have a $10M option for 3rd year.

that would be cool if we had that option & it wasn't guaranteed... CP3 is also potentially a FA after next season... could be a VERY interesting conversation down the road

Thats what they are going to be dealing with in the playoffs. No one is denying that Felton is having a great regular season but he still has very little playoff experience. Nash knows how to deal with that kind of pressure. Nothing really controversial about that. It would give the Knicks a two year window to make a serious run if they also add a decent big man.

I wouldn't touch Nash with regards to any discussion around Felton. Did you see how many picks Nash went under? No way. Knicks D is more improved over what Nash would offer to the O.

I would like to see less automatic switching when Felton is a part of a PnR on the defensive end, but that's just me (and we did notice how the Knicks countered that later in the game).
