Knicked?

The selection of Italian forward Danilo Gallinari could mean the end of David Lee’s Knicks career.The Knicks could be working on a deal with the Charlotte Bobcats to acquire point guard Raymond Felton for Lee, who played for Bobcats coach Larry Brown.

Coincidentally, the Bobcats selected Texas point guard D.J. Augustin with the ninth overall pick. Charlotte’s second point was French center Alexis Ajinca.

When Mike D’Antoni coached the Phoenix Suns he gave the front office a the thumbs-down to drafting Lee because he felt that Lee wasn’t a good enough shooter.

The Knicks had spoken to the Memphis Grizzlies about trading Lee and Malik Rose before the draft to acquire the fifth pick.

I really like Lee, he is the only one thats showed hustle all last season… but reality is we desperately need a PG and Felton would be a step in the right direction… only if we can figure out a way to get rid of Steph, Curry and Randolph…
