Phil Jackson has started to wheel and deal as the Knicks president and before he gets a new coach be might be making roster moves. According to CBSSports Jackson has told Raymond Felton he will be traded. Where could Felton end up? Lets take a look at possible scenarios for Felton.
First Round Pick:
The Knicks are in desperate need of draft picks and salary cap space and Felton could provide both for New York. If the Knicks were to move Felton and some pieces to a team with multiple first round picks they could get a pick and shed some cap space. This is the most likely deal that Felton will be involved in.
Iman Shumpert:
The Knicks also want to move Shumpert so let's combine the two in any deal. The Knicks will likely make Felton a part of any deal they try and make considering the cap they would shed. If Shumpert is going to be traded, expect Felton to be right next to him as a piece in the deal.
Carmelo Anthony & the Chicago Bulls:
The Bulls are rumored to be interested in Anthony this offseason and the Knicks could do the unthinkable and pull off a sign and trade. Carmelo and Felton can be traded off to the Bulls for Carlos Boozer, Kirk Hinrich and Lou Amundson. The trade won’t be a popular one among the Knicks faithful for 2014, but when the 2015 free agency period comes around they give Phil Jackson all the power to mold this team in his image.
