    Some Knicks fans like a psycho ex. to Lin.

    They think they dump the players but hate to be dumped.

    The Bulls fans and management are more classy in handling Asik's poison pill.

    People calling this guy a knicks fan.... Look at his join date, 2001...

    He's probably embodies a different label than knicks fan...

    And people are complaining about LOF ruining the website. What's worse than 2012/2013 trolls is a 2001 troll.

    I agree. Lin doesn't fit the Woodson system, Felton was the better choice.

    It was still nice seeing the Rockets beat them both times during the regular season though lol

    Felton is the better player, but lin has more room to improve. Felton is a good fit for that team

    He's a better fit for their team. Lin's and Felton's games are totally different.

    Really dude? Still with the freakin PG camp theory? I guess everybody that goes to PG camps are all hoopin in the league right?

    I'm not denying that camps are great tool for teaching some guys, but bottom line is Lin is good enough to play in the league, no matter what path he took to get here. Does he have room to improve? Hell yes, but please stop suggesting that he should go enroll in CP3's developmental camp.

    Lin is the better player. Felton was the better choice for the Knicks.

    Lin was too much of a distraction. The constant scrutiny between Lin and Melo wasn't good for either player. Melo has really risen to the challenge this year. In no small part was his renewed play attributable to Linsanity last year.

    Even then, I'm sure lots of people would have liked to see how Linsanity played out this year.

    The Knicks, as presently constituted, have about 2 good years to win. After that, they'll be stuck with aging players and bad contracts. They never really bothered to develop or bring in young talent these last few years (except for maybe Iman Shumpert) and are not built for longevity. These Knicks fans better enjoy it while they can.

    Felton is not the Knicks' PG. Kidd and Prigioni are.

    And Carmelo is definitely happier without having to share the ball with Jeremy.

    Having said that, I'm glad the Knicks didn't match and that Jeremy is a Rocket.

    Felton's a better fit for the Knicks, but I still think Lin is a better player. Felton's just extra motivated this year to silence everyone and prove he belongs in NY. He's basically reached his peak, and his numbers are similar to Lin's up and down season.
