He is a different player when he puts on the Knicks uniform

He had a great game tonite. Its not a matter of not getting love, he has just yet to earn the stripes to put him on the list.

Who Needs Stripes or Any List?

Felton has had a solid season in a critical leadership role, to help lead this team to 6-0. That is all that matters.

Kid is off to a great start. No need to sulk on who is on what list. Let his play tell the story. "Standings" is the only list that matters. We'll rank him at the end of the season when we can see how he stacked up with the others over 82 games.

He was brilliant tonite.

Parker is not clyde but his game has similar characteristics as does his size and build. The kid is smooth. Not "That" Smooth, but he got some rings and a great career!

Not to turn this into another Lin thread (or discussion for that matter) but just an observation from watching the Knicks-Spurs game. Had a chance to listen to the Spurs announcers tonight (NBA League Pass) and walked away very impressed. Really refreshing. Night and day when compared to Orlando's announcers. Very professional is how I'd explain San Antonio's announcers. They announce as if they've been there before, and really talk about the game of basketball. They talked up the Knicks during the entire game, even called out both Duncan and Melo as superstars. It's interesting, because those guys call each and every Spurs game. Are lucky enough to call games with Parker running the point. Championship winning team(s). And they even went out of their way, as Felton was doing his thing, to mention how Felton has already proven that he's the much better NBA PG when compared to Jeremy Lin, followed by talking up our front office in regards to going the dirrection of Felton when in comparison to overpaying for an inexperienced Jeremy Lin.

Felton just went 10/20 from the field (2/4 from beyond the arc) while putting up 25 points, 7 assists along with 3 boards and only 2 turnovers. Against a Tony Parker led Spurs team. But truth be told, long time Felton supporters aren't shocked the slightest. The man put up an average of 17.1 points, 9 assists, 3.6 boards and 1.8 steals during our postseason push of 2010-2011. I wouldn't consider 54 starts/54 games as being a small sample size either.

Sean Eliott was one of the announcers and they were very cool. Explained with knowledge why Lin was going to cost so much money for us and not Rockets.

Also were very impressed with how good Felton looked after last year.

THat is a big factor. Most of us did not know which Raymond we get. This one in shape is a better player than Lin at this moment.

I don't know who you are Kemosabe, but I'm glad you're here; +1

Posts like this are what make UK worthwhile. Ultimate. Knicks.

Insights from some truly objective observers, meaningful stats without droning into abstract physics.

Nice job.

Lin and the Rockets suhuck compared to us. Nuff said.

I listened to the start of this game on SiriusXM satellite radio. It was the local San Antonio broadcast. They introduced Jason Kidd starting at point guard and Felton at the other guard position. I'm not sure if these were the same guys though.
