Lin was not traded. He betrayed his benevolent benefactor who in a fit of anger banished the ungrateful traiter into the sea of cybermetric logic than pay the dreaded hyper tax in year three!

The CBA turned on Dolan and Lin choose wisely.

It sucks, but it happens.

Yup. He holds his own. He can defend 1-on-1. His problem is with really quick PGs like Lillard, Parker and CP3. Everybody else, he holds his own.

Look at the division there is/was Rondo and Dwill. Those guys toasted LIN. Also Holiday is no slouch. Lin offense is not the problem. This team has more than enough scoring. Its the bullfighting defense that's the problem. Before he got hurt it seemed like other teams were picking on the dude. See Dwill for an example.

Lin is a better defender than Felton - there I said it!

Trivia:

Which guard does not torch Felton?

Answer:

None - they all do

Imagine if Lin were still with us? Lin loves New York. He loves the Knicks. Imagine Lin and Carmelo together just tearing it up night after night.

Carmelo didn't want to share his toys with lin.... he felt it was "ridiculous" that lin was offered that kind of money... so there you go...

Nice ....

how about we bring Carmelo into another discussion - SMH

It wasn't me.... and again, you are bringing more attention to it.... smdh

You took it south as usual

Woah, how did Felton get put in to this discussion about Lin? I will say that Felton seems to be more careful with the ball. Lin seems to play more reckless. I make this statement without looking a stats so I may be wrong. Woodson has placed focus on limiting TOs. Which is another reason along with his D as to why he is a bad fit for the NYKs.

I agree, so why do we talk about a Rocket's guard on a NYKs board?

Because we let him go for nothing and now we are stuck with a bonehead. Is that not relevant?

so it is ok to go in on felton? Pot meet kettle....
