Felton meeting w/ Knicks, Heat

According to a league source, Felton will visit with both the Knicks and Miami this week. The meetings are expected to take place either Tuesday or Wednesday, or Wednesday and Thursday. Yet as is the case with most of the free-agent crop, Felton nor the teams he's in communication with can truly commit until the Big Three of LeBron James, Dwyane Wade and Chris Bosh finally decide where they're headed.

Because adding a second star would take up so much of the Knicks' salary-cap space, Felton will likely join New York only if James and Wade go elsewhere. If that's not the case, Felton is a front-runner to sign with the Heat. New Jersey, which is also in the running for James and has enough cap space for two max players as well, is another possible option for Felton.

The Nets might consider using incumbent point guard Devin Harris and Felton together, although the notion of paying a combined $15 million approximately for the position is not desirable (Harris will earn nearly $9 million next season and Felton earned $5.5 million last season and is looking for even more). The Knicks and Heat, meanwhile, simply need a point man to run their respective teams. New York has only combo guard Toney Douglas as a possibility, while Miami has underwhelming third-year point guard Mario Chalmers.

    • Regardless of how we got here, any rational fan should be excited by how well Bryce played down the stretch. Anyone not happy about that level of play either doesn't know what they're looking at, or they're still trying to drive tired narratives. Obviously, Cam had an all-time rookie season, and I'm not putting the two in the same basket yet, but as someone who has watched every snap of Panthers football since the start of the new millennium (Im old), Bryce was playing at a higher level at the end of 2024 than Cam was at the end of 2012 (his 2nd season). Cam continued to develop into MVP form, something Bryce has to prove, but as someone who watched both (and will stan for Cam always), Bryce was playing at a higher level to end year 2 than Cam did.  Go watch the film if you dont believe me. None of that means anything for the future. But the people who said BY9 couldnt play in this league are wrong.   That being said, the only thing that matters is this year. #20 is perfectly fair IMO going into the season. I mean think about it, how would you rank him??!  His in-season turnaround is one of the wildest things I've ever seen... how do you rank a guy who looked like a massive bust in September and by January was consistently playing at a top 10 level? My excitement level is pretty damn high heading into this season. There were throws from the Chiefs game onward where Bryce had Drew Brees levels of anticipation. Im excited to see what he can do with a full deck on offense, something we really never gave Cam. Really hope and expect Bryce to move up this list this season.  
    • Not really, the only QB's (other than Anthony Richardson) ranked below him are new to their teams as a placeholder starter or drafted in 2024 or 2025, not a lot of gymnastics to get there. It's not about how many that is, if it's 20, 12, or 2... It means there isn't a QB who's team has committed to them for the long term right now that they have ranked below Bryce. That's not a great thing.
    • The changes to onside kicks were ridiculous and ruined a significant part of the game     It was already a high risk low reward play.  Why change it?
