![]() A bad season for Felton just got worse Saturday. The Trail Blazers starting point guard went 4 for 17 and had more turnovers (three) than assists (two) in 39 minutes of play. He also missed his only free throw, which happened to come in a tie game in the second overtime, adding to his -- and the team's -- growing list of late-game miscues that have limited the Blazers to a 15-13 record. Dude just doesn't get it. probably why Denver traded him. NY Knicks - Retirement home for players and GMs

![]() I was glad when we traded him. Couldn't run the P&R and was looking for his shot too much.

![]() Felton was made to be with MDA. Felton did ok with Larry Brown, but not like he did with us.
I don't know the system Portland uses but lets be real, Felton was great in NY and ok elsewhere. I always thought Ray was just a great back up pg and can go hard about 15-20 min a game. I thought his contract was fair. Can't blame a guy who was starting in NYC after signing here, then gets cast off as cap fodder in a bull**** trade to end up being a back up to an "Underclassman". Denver was a class act trading him to a good team he could start for. Its not like we "dumpted him" nor would elevate any knick status by him not playing well elsewhere. Im sure we all feel better if Gallo and Mozzy and the rest don't do as well but there are way too many variables to go there. I wish most former players well. Guys that were in the rotation. We played minny. Darko is on injured reserve but AR is being dumped on the bench the last 5 games and is slipping out of the rotation fast. Racking up some DNP's the last 5 games. http://espn.go.com/nba/player/_/id/3455/anthony-randolph If Felton traded created the opportunity for Lin, then I can live with that. |

It really is (L)incredible how much had to happen for Lin to wind up here and get the opportunity he's gotten. Just have to take a deep breath and thank a higher power (God, Allah, the wishing fountain at my local mall) everything wound up the way it did. |

For years we had no room for yoot or contract space to create opportunity. This is what "rebuilding" usually looks like. Rautins did not pan out but Fields was a steal. Mozzy was a free agent and could have been a bust. We took some chances. We thougth highly of Lin enough to take a look. Good fortune shines on other teams and why not us? I pray for his ACL to hold! |
