Yesterday multiple people reported that the Felton deal would be announced and official today. Almost 4pm and they announced the singing of Copeland but still nothing on Felton.

Also Stephen A Smith said on the radio today that he heard Dolan is meeting with Knicks brass to make sure this is the right move.

ALSO Michael Kay said adamantly today that anyone reporting Knicks will not match is making it up because he called around and Knicks are still UNDECIDED.

Very interesting.

Could Dolan turn from Villain to hero?

Yeah, I think if the Felton deal were done, you'd know their mind was made up.

Grunwald is clearing stalling (as he did as dodged the Fed Ex man all weekend) until Dolan cools off and comes to his senses.

I like Grunwald more every day.

I think there have to be voices in the organization telling Dolan to match Lin. It's just a matter if they can get him to stop being a cry baby before the deadline.

If I only had your xray vision I wouldn't need the alba thread.

Kidd and Jr at the 2, Lin and Felton at the 1.

Prigioni backs them all up.

Interesting. Rockets lose out on d12 if Knicks don't match. Rockets have no one to play the point if the Knicks get ray and Lin. I wonder if morey realized the position he has put his own franchise in. Glad the Knicks have grunwald.

Grunwald is doing a good job under the constraints of dealing with Dolan's temper tantrum.

It's pretty obvious Grunwald is stalling. How else would you explain the comical incident of the Rockets trying to deliver an offer sheet to them that last like 36 hours?

Wait, you're saying Knicks got Raymond just to make sure Rockets don't have a PG to sign?

I think they got Felton in case Dolan wouldn't let them match on Lin.

That said, I've always maintained the best starting lineup would be Lin and Kidd in the backcourt.

Trade still not official. Felton's agent thinks it'll be done today.


I have no idea what to think or believe. I just know I didn't get any work done today. arhg.

Seth Rosenthal ‏@seth_rosenthal

RT @ByNateTaylor: The trade with Portland hasn't been finalized, but Dutt expects it to become official later today.

Felton is on the Knicks website roster. As is Kurt Thomas.

Then again, so are Lin and Fields...

Doesn't that make Felton a good trading chip if we have both him and Lin?

So even the NBA is getting in on the drama, confusing fans just so their website would get one more tick..
