Get real. Jeremy Lin had some help.
It would have been nice to have Mr 85 Per Cent for the playoffs.
I dont think its fair to say he will be a failure. He may well be a failure or he might develop into a all-star. the fact is nobody knows. Now i am a KNICK fan so felton is fine by me and i will continue to root and support my team

Hey- don't you mean 'Mr 85 Percent of the Absolute Minimum Threshold to Play'?

If Lin woulda played it woulda/coulda cost him 10 million bucks. Chalmers would have kicked the crap out of him again and everyone would have seen that it was not a one game fluke.
It was a very smart move to sit even though Tyson, Amare and Melo were probably playing at < 85 pct.
Lin was protecting his money.

You must dislike Felton a lot. He brought Melo in and shipped Lin out.

Looks like Felton already lost most of the weight he was carrying. Great news. Old Gustav has to go the same route. Haven't played much bball this year.

All that matters now is that Felton can execute what Woody's game plan is for this year. Last year Woody had no choice but to kind of play it half MDA and Half Woody, but this year he can fully install his own system. I don't know exactly what that will be, but I can assume that it will be an Old School dump it into the post type of offense. Probably not a lot of motion, but some curls or cuts to clear out the strong side for a post up for Melo or STAT. Double teams will likely lead to a few scoring opportunities for the role players. Throw in a dash of PnR with Tyson or Camby. I'm not expecting much, but a motivated Felton can surely handle that kind of role.We're looking at close to 40 shot attempts going to Melo and STAT every night. With the likely slower pace you'll get fewer shots overall and so the Role players won't really have a lot of shots to begin with. Felton just has to take care of the ball and play hard on D. Woody learned under LB and so he watched Billups stand out at the 3pt line and orchestrate. There wasn't a lot of PG penetration. Mostly Curls for Rip and Post ups for Wallace. When the defense collapsed 3's for Billups and Prince. Very basic halfcourt offense.
Woodson is on record saying that he learned some things n the offensive end from MDA. I'm sure he will insert some of the subtleties he picked up from being an assistant. It wouldn't be smart not to, so I highly doubt we are going to see the entire playbook from Atl next year....
I for one liked Felton. He was the only player in the league other than Steve Nash, and most recently Lin, that could run MDA system and they should have never traded him in the first place. That being said, the system that made him good got kicked to the curb, so now I don't know what to expect.
