The Knicks Family Tree
"We can't be satisfied right now. We're not going to lay it down like, 'We've got everything figured out.' We still got a long way to go. We still got to get better on defense, we still got to execute better on offense. We still got a lot of things we got to do. We've got to rebound better.
When you have guys with IQs as high as these guys on this team and have been in the league for a while, have been in big games, been in championship games and won championships, it makes my job that much easier.
There are so many things we need to do to improve that we can't stop where we're at now. We want to get better, each and every day. That's why we work so hard in practice. That's why we push each other each and every day in practice."
- Raymond Felton
"It helps that Felton played with Tyson Chandler in Charlotte, Marcus Camby in Portland, and J.R. Smith in Denver."
Last time around in NYC, Felton played with Amare. Those relationships are a huge factor in getting acquainted.
I know he's a rookie "technically" to the NBA, but his Euro league experience seems to translate so far. I think you could see him giving instruction to the "younger" guys like Copeland during the preseason and the immediate effect he has, even though he's a newbie to the NBA game.
