Fellas just think about this logically for a moment, Grunwald is a genius, but still Dolan's bitch, we will be matching Lin. If we don't care about the luxury tax, then even if Lin doesn't live up to his potential, what do we have to lose?
Grunwald could have easily told Felton to spread that rumour, the rockets were also considering going hard for Felton if they did not get Lin. So we throw them off the scent of Felton and get him via S&T (Gadzuric), then the rockets are helpless as we match Lin's offer. Seem's a stretch but perfectly doable and Grunwald has come up trumps so far.
Ball movement was pretty stagnant for most of last year but with Kidd, Felton & Lin all on the roster (with Kidd & Felton able to play the 2) we will have outstanding ball movement for our big 3 at all times. Grunwald could be looking ahead and seeing Shump may notbe able to retain his form by the playoff's and keeping us extra insured.
Rockets are then stuck with TD as their pg hahaha, they threw us a curve ball with the backloading contract so whose to say we aren't doing the same to them?
Felton? First off who do we have left to trade? Shump? They do a Shump deal for Felton and they're idiots...
Rumour circulating on insidehoops.com (not the most credible), that Knicks are doing a S&T of Shumpert for Felton and it's being finalised, no source though.
We could just be trolling the rockets and getting Felton and Lin. Felton & Kidd can play the 2 at times and this means we will always have plenty of ball movement.
Update 10:08 p.m.: The Houston Chronicle reports that talk of Felton given assurances the Knicks will not match Lin's offer sheet are false. It's possible the Knicks could still match the offer.
