Felton is terrible on both ends of the floor, and pablo get that occasional spurts of good defense followed by an inopportune turnover. IMO Pablo isn't worthy of backup status. This team is dead in the water if they don't do something about this pg situation. I would this team to give Murry and/or some hungry D-leaguer a shot. That could probably jump start this team. Felton lack of off season conditioning shows that he doesn't care about this team. There is a good possibility next season could be his last in the NBA. I don't think anything would give him a shot after what he did this season. He is playing far worst than when he was in Portland. Felton has the skills to be a really good player, but it seems that he is more worried about eating burgers rather then playing Bball.

Im not talking Chris Paul either... just good play. The only thing our guards do (generally) is take care of the ball. Aside from that look at 82games.com we literally get outscored, out shot, out rebounded, out assisted... everything. Our starting backcourt gives up 17ppg to the opposition.

If you watched that game you could see the Knicks can do a lot of things, but there is no coheasion and tons of standing around because when you have no floor general its iso iso iso iso

I think I am on the board with the fans that think Prigs is the Knicks best defensive guard. I wonder how many points he gives up to opponents? Despite all the problems the starting 5 has with the back court that 5 man unit is one of the best in the league, albeit with a small sample size.

I think more than a new pg, we need a coach with a new voice to get through to guys.

it was the MDA Felton.. a throwback for sure.

Prigs makes me nuts. He shoots the 3 well. I just dont get why he passes so many open looks

where has that Felton been all year? Is he just healthy now? Or did all the talk about how crappy he is get through to him and wake him up? And why couldn't our coach do that sooner?

And speaking of Woodson, why did he go so long with Prigs, and not get Felton back in the 4th when Prigs and our team ran out of gas?

And I think Prigs passes so much, even on open looks because he wants to get others involved and knows he's just not that good.
