The overall goal is to get Melo's buddy Chris Paul. I mention Melo quite a not bc this team is built around him.

Next season starting 5 could be

Pg: Kidd
Sg: Martin
Sf: Melo
PF: Scola
C : Tyson

Not a bad squad that can hold the fort down until Chris Paul gets there.

Knicks then sign Felton and we would be rocking. Felton off the bench would be HUGE.

Team would instantly be more balanced.

I forgot to mention that team would excel in half court sets too.

knicks would have to wait 90 days to do that trade. maybe at the trade deadline if the team disappoints but not before.

why is everyone so quick to act like the knicks aren't well run? they're pretty well run right now. grunwald is doing a good job. jeeez

Houston could trade us Scola and Martin during the 3 day waiting period. Then we just dont match.

Lins not going anywhere, you think dolan is that dumb, you watch GS and houston waive this kid, you fight for his bird rights, you hike your ticket prices to the moon 2 weeks after he becomes a phenom, he essentially brought all kinds of ppl to watch him play, 200 media members at his post game press conferences.

Do you know the back lash the Dolans would get if Lin were to got houston and becomes a star and leads that team to the playoffs..

Lin will make dolan 30 mill in the first 3 weeks of the season, houston is going to kick themselves a new ******* for not giving lin 40 mill, he'll be worth every dime.

I may get rid of my NBA package because I know they'll be on ESPN NBATV TNT every week..

The kid can play, stop worrying about Felton coming here especially coming off a pretty bad season, worse then AMARE and ppl are clamoring for the knicks to sign him..

LIn is a cash cow even if he will not play at all...
It is not about bbal.

Who knows maybe they would still be willing to trade us Scola & Martin for Amare. He would at least give them a star player.

BUt thats not how we do it in NY!
