Knicks · Steph curry for felton (page 1)

knicks1248 @ 12/11/2012 2:02 PM
Is curry a franchise player in your eyes ?

I love watching him play, i was praying he was still on the boards instead of gallo. MDA's life would have been good, and probably no melo. If felton can continue to play at this level, he's stock will obviously rise, but I'm not so sure they would trade felton for anyone at this point.

Mark jackson has got those guys alot more focus, has Dlee playing some half decent defense, and klay thomas and Barnes are been very good additions with good chemistry. the thing is, they are young, and can not challenge any of the top teams in the east come playoffs (if they make it)Adventually there going to have to put some of that young talent with veterens..

The more i look at our roster the more I think our window for a championship is 2 yrs at best (with the current season be our best chance)..then what, rebuild ? I don't ever want to go through that again..

You jest of course at the suggestion?
DurzoBlint @ 12/11/2012 2:09 PM
work WITH the drugs, not against them.

How good as he in the PnR game? He is a great shooter which would be fantastic but if he is not a great passer on the PnR game what happens to Amar'e and Tyson?

Also, this trade would never ever happen unless Mark Jackson and the GM just sends the knicks a gift.

This is Lin all over again.
We are Melo team.
Our mojo is to slow it down and outsmart'em or outiso'em...
Then go back on D and get some stops.
This is simple stuff, no running and gunning, no dunking and punking...
We'll see how it goes...

Only if they throw in a few 1st round draft picks!
AnubisADL @ 12/11/2012 2:36 PM
Golden State does this because?
tkf @ 12/11/2012 2:36 PM
i ALWAYS wanted this kid.. not sure if he is a franchise player.... he is a slick, throw back type of player, but not sure if he is a PG at this point or a smallish SG.. I will say this, he can dribble, pass and shoot, but he likes to shoot, doesn't dish out enough assist for me, and his shooting % should be better.. with that said. i would trade felton for him in a second, but the warriors are not stupid, at least not that stupid....
MS @ 12/11/2012 2:40 PM
He's playing some solid ball. But, Felton plays well here, you don't know if Curry could handle it.

Everyone was dumping on Lee being a good player on a bad team and a bench guy, looks like he would be the best big on our team right now. 18.8pts 11.2rbs 3.5ass 1.0stl.

Guy does a lot of good things but, I don't see him as a point guard and his health is a total redflag. Unless he puts on a few pounds, I don't see him racking up a few seasons. Also, those ankle issues worry me.

other than his ankle not sure about any other health issues... he is thin, but not weak... i do agree the ankle would worry me, as it seems to be worrying the warriors as well.... with that said, he is a unique talent, I like his ability..

Curry is more talented but Felton is a better fit.

OMG. An embarrassing (for you) post. I fixed your post.

Perfect example of how stats lie about the value of a player. And by value I mean how they contribute to winning games. And only that.

Woo hoo, he's clearly better than Chandler. Look at those numbers!!!!

He doesn't penetrate as much as you would like, but if I could shoot like he could, It's understandable..The ankle thing was last season, he's been relatively healthy.

Golden state is going to realize that there going to have to trade some of that young talent sooner or later if they want to get into elite status.

It's been a known fact that dlee's numbers are empty, there just stats..Guy hardly has impact

This year proves that to be a myth. Lee is balling on a winning team and he is a huge part of the reason why along with Curry and Thommpson's perimeter shooting

If tyson ended up in GS, they would be right up there with OKC

Curry would be a great fit because his shooting ability makes him fit well off of Melo. He's an injury risk more than Felton however, but obviously he is a player that could put us over the top.

Also, i was praying he stayed on the board for us too, except it was the year after Gallo when we drafted Hill in 09.

Nalod @ 12/11/2012 4:07 PM
If we drafted him he'd be long traded or "good riddanced" into a nervous breakdown with his injury problems.

Jennings also, his inconsistantcy and NY media pressure would have been awful. We'd have traded him.

I think the only reason we kept shump this off season is few teams going to trade for a guy coming off an ACL.

Otherwise, we'd have traded his ass too!

A lot of shump love here but it don't seem we miss any of the guys we trade away. IN fact, we generally celebrate their injury or failures!

IronWillGiroud @ 12/11/2012 4:09 PM
Shump is a steal machine he's a budding Jordan lite it's something to be aware of his defense is so lock down plus he had games last season where he absolutely dominated on offense, on the O, any other team SHump is first option or second option, the future of the franchise.

yes, he's THAT good
