I think fit and chemistry, we're better off with Amare, Felton and the other parts we added vs. Amare and Lebron.

I think you fail to realize how good Amare is making Felton look. Think Duhon and Lee. If you have a guy to feed that has GREAT hands you are going to get assists.

Felton needs to calm down and play smarter. Dude is making bad decisions at the end of games and it is becoming annoying.

I dont know about all that man, plus we could have gotten Ray with LeBron and Stats.

no, we couldn't have gotten Ray with both Lebron & Amare... there wasn't enough cap room for all 3... obviously i would rather have gotten Lebron, but Felton has definitely made a big impact & i'm glad we have him.

no, trust me i realize having Amare is the key to this team's run, but u can't overlook the contribution that's being made by Felton either... the guy is ballin'... he's making big shots, he's making big defensive plays, & he's getting the ball to Amare for easy baskets w/regularity now whereas he wasn't in synch w/him earlier in the season... he's obviously worked hard w/Amare in practice & it's paying off... yeah, Ray still makes some boneheaded mistakes but compared to what we're used to seeing around here, that doesn't trump the positives he's bringing to this team... he's a real leader, something we really haven't had at the PG position for quite a while.

the upcoming stretch will be a good test... but even if we struggle through that stretch, i think the mindset of this team has completely changed... Felton & Amare are leading by example & everyone else is following their lead... as long as those 2 guys keep performing at a high level, i think this team will exceed my expectations this year by a pretty wide margin.

He gave Moz 3 million like it was nothing, I am sure that Donnie could have found a way to get Felton on this team with LeBron. Think about it, if he goes and signs Bron who would be running the point right now, Donnie could and would have definitely made some type of adjustment building the roster.

Amare would make any point guard look better, but Ray Felton is good on his own. He's stepped his game up since coming to New York.

this is a logical and rational post. I would encourage you to save that type of post for others, as anubis is pretty much here to chap others' asses and stink up the joint with his piss and vinegar
