Knicks · Felton deal STILL not official... Is something up? (page 2)

"Kurt Thomas and Camby together now you know you in trouble. Ain't nothin' but a Knicks thing, baby"

mrKnicksShot - our beloved Knicks continue to be the most compelling soap opera this side of the New Orleans Saints. Drew Brees signing yesterday caused more gnashing of teeth in the gulf region than a category 12 hurricane advisory.

I want to see the smile on Raymond Felton's face at his press conference.

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

Kidd is 39 and the Spaniard is 35. Don't think the Felton signing has anything to do with Lin. We are adding depth to to the PG position.

MSG took down Lins Jersey from the online shop. Sources told Stephan A (for what that is worth) the decision is made, only Dolan can save Lin now. Something is suspicious in this all. Sure the info comes out later...

Prigioni backs them all up.

This is what is happening.

hard to say what's true at this point, never seen anything like this before to be honest but i do believe getting Ray back was part of the plan even before the Lin debacle

As far as the team store, a spokesmen for the Knicks today said that ALL free agents gear are taken down from store not just Lin

I don't know why people have been saying that since Saturday- if the rockets lose out on Lin, they'll just sign Aaron Brooks- he wants back, suns renounced him and he's played well for the rockets in the past.

Felton deal isn't official because they're still haggling over the draft rights to Greek players. No way we can pull out of it- we screwed Felton in the Melo trade, then we screwed him at the start of the offseason when we were about to sign him before we suddenly went for Kidd at the last minute, no way we would screw him AGAIN, especially when he wants to be here so much.

Someone said Kidd played a lot of SG for Dallas, but honestly a backcourt of Lin, Felton, Kidd, JR and Shump is unworkable. Don't see how Lin stays.

That would be awesome. They signed Felton same time as not matching Fields. I saw Felton has a replacement. Obviously he is not a SG, but maybe the team sees Kidd as a spot-up, facilitating SG. JR would play a lot of time as backup SF as well so there are plenty of minutes for all of them.

I heard that Melo said it was RIDICULOUS to display Free Agents gear.

I am kind of sad that this Lin thing is taking away from the most important storyline of all: The return of Krazy Eyes Kurt Thomas

Aaron Brooks just signed with the Sacramento Kings.

I'd love for the Knicks to announce matching on Lin and trade for Felton and be like, "Peace out, Morey!" Unfortunately, Dolan is an idiot.

As @Thirty2zero - free agent point guard Aaron Brooks - just tweeted, source confirms he has agreed to sign with the Kings.

One step closer to Dolan ruining yet another Knicks team with his ego.

RT @ByNateTaylor: The Knicks have made the Raymond Felton & Kurt Thomas, via a sign-and trade deal, official.
