New New York
Quiet Storm
This may be an argument that is going on in the recent game threads and if it is I am sorry for dedicating a thread to it....but am I the only one concerned w/ Raymond Felton's play?
First off he plays really out of control for a PG who has spent two years under Larry Brown.
Of course I understand that our motion offense is 10 times faster than Brown's thus the high turn over ratio....
But what's the excuse for the .279 shooting Percentage?
Ok we are only talking about two Pre Season games.....but all of our off season acqusitions have shown some of what we have expected with the exception of Felton!
Mozgov has shown flashes, Randolph has too, both rookies have made some nice plays, Tariaf has played some good D, and Amare is showing what he brings to the table....but Felton has done nothing! He and Roger Mason have under-preformed, difference is that no one is expecting much from Mason!
Felton is arguably our most important player after Amare, we need him to show up
Now....this is not a hate thread!!!! I repeat not a hate thread! I liked this acqusition and still have confidence it will pan out, but Felton needs to realize where he is at! This is NY, patience is unfortunetly not a virtue of ours....and you know what, it shouldnt be! This is The Mecca of basketball we deserve a competetive team!
Felton once said in an interview that he wants to be the guy who takes the blame when things dont go well.....be careful what you wish for!
