Lin's contract would be too costly only if Dolan keeps all the elderly guys around through the 2014-15 season

You forget they would have mentioned Lin coming off knee surgery making him a question mark.

Notice when we play other teams in their arenas how many Knicks jerseys are in the crowds? You call that hate?

and that is why a team like the Nyets moved away from the Swamp to Brooklyn. They want some of the love the Knicks get and they want to sell tickets like the Knicks. They try so hard to persuade the fans to show them some love. Win or lose, no team has as many fans all over the world as the New York Knicks. Yes there are some jealous people that hate the Knicks but that's what happens when you're so popular and sell a lot of jerseys.

Cool. Now I am enlightened.
If some team sells a lot of jerseys everybody will hate it.
And teams who win bbal games and chips like Suns, Pistons, Lakers, Dallas are recognized and respected because they do not have square garden which is actually round and sell less jerseys (or are they?).
Seriously Knicks are hated because they have crappy nazy-like ownersheep who disregard fans, media, and make mockery from the game of basketball.
This is the worst run pro club in the world already for 15 years since Jimmy is in charge and there is no end of it in sights.

Fishy,

You're a good dude but this sort of statement is highly subjective cause many would argue that Shumpert is clearly the young gun on this team with the biggest upside.

Action

Given Lins small sample its easy to discount the stats but he put an NBA team on his back and rode it. The Toronto buzzer beater (game was tied) was increidible for a player with his limited experience. He showed a strength of character and clear vision of his clutch gene.

I think his upside as pg with leadership skills and the abilty to perform in the clutch is just not a common trait.

Shump has very nice upside no doubt.

Lin's effectiveness diminished greatly when Mike D'Antoni left. Felton had a down year, was out of shape and put up nearly the same stats as Lin did last year. People are only pissed off because they liked the story. It has nothing to do with basketball.

I would have liked to have seen Dolan match the offer, but I get it. Lin's not going to be as good as Chris Paul in two years so you can't pay him that match, especially in the new CBA.

Felton put up those stats on a horrid Blazer team that was going through the motions. Lin did it playing with Melo, Amare, JR, Novak and helping beat Indy twice back to back

you have to be kidding me. Your telling me shump (and I love him) has more upside than Lin? My god... based on what? Shump has the makings of a nice stopper on the wings who can score you some points. Lin is a guy who might be able to run a high caliber NBA offense... but ok.

Shump is taller than Lin, a better athlete than Lin and plays d better than Lin. Shump can play three positions. Shump just needs to get a more consistent jump shot and get healthy. Lin and Shump are both good young players. I can see why one could prefer Shump over Lin.

So true. Certain teams are media darlings win or lose, others just never will be.

NY teams have to be Yankee like, in order to get respect..The knicks finish the the last qtr of the season with the 2nd best record in the league nxt to the spurs..How on earth are they slated in the middle of the pack..

The 76ers after stumbling like crazy down the stretch, the nets which didn't make the playoffs, the bulls which their best player won't be back to norm til next season..man i could on and on about every team ahead of us in these bogus rankings.At the end of the day, were a injury plague team that consistantly has drama during the regular season.. The knicks are simply going to have to prove to be a consistant team before the respect comes IMO

Lin played a grand total of 7 games with both Melo and Amare. Felton for his career has averaged 13 & 6. He had a terrible year last year and still averaged 11 & 6.

You don't get credit for scoring 13 points if it takes you 12 shots to do so. That just means you're hurting your team.
