"Remember when Por. media roasted Felton for too much offseason roasting?"


  

          

Well apparently Felton does.

http://www.nydailynews.com/sports/basketball/knicks/felton-face-squad-knicks-play-trail-blazers-article-1.1288173

DENVER — Raymond Felton developed an uncanny knack for turning just about everyone against him during his one season in Portland. Fans, media and even his coach soured on the point guard, who was admittedly out of shape and unproductive.

That’s actually a nice way of putting it. Fans in the Pacific Northwest preferred using words such as “fat” and “dog” to describe Felton’s 60-game run with the Trail Blazers last season. It turned ugly for Felton then, and it figures to reach a nasty level Thursday night when he returns to face his former team.

“I really don’t care man,” Felton said on Wednesday before the Knicks’ 117-94 loss to the Nuggets, another of his former teams. “I’m going to laugh the whole time, really. It’s going to be funny to me because I’m happy now. I’m where I want to be. I could care less what they do or what they say. That’s behind me. That’s in the past.

“I never one time made any excuses. I came in and I was out of shape. I said that from the beginning. I said that the whole time. As far as anything else they want to say, it’s not true and they can say whatever. I’m going to be as positive as I can be. I’m going to have a big grin and a smile on my face and laugh at whatever comes at me.”

Felton, who was skewered in the press for skewering in the offseason, appears to have a bigger issue with the media than with fans.

“I think it is probably the worst moment I had in basketball was there for sure,” Felton added, who scored eight points Wednesday. “I’m not going to put it on the fans. Some of the fans there were great. I made a lot of good friends there. I met a lot of good, real Portland Trail Blazers fans there. I’m not going to talk junk about the fans there. Certain people there I don’t want to see and better not come near me.”

When asked who was specifically referring to, Felton said: “Just whoever, I’m not going to say who.”

Felton, who has played well this season in his second stint with the Knicks, accepted responsibility for his performance and fitness not being up to standard with Portland. Felton wrongly believed that the NBA labor dispute would wipe out the season and wasn’t in shape when the season began on Dec. 25.

“It was kinda being put into an unfair situation,” he said. “You really didn’t have a training camp to (develop) chemistry, and that’s big for a point guard especially coming to a new team, new arena and new organization. And that didn’t play into my favor.

“Then I was out of shape. I got kinda relaxed because I didn’t think we were going to have a season. I did what I had to do. I felt like I was professional, didn’t talk bad about anybody, didn’t try to cause any drama even though that was said about me. The only drama that I own up to is that I was out of shape. That’s it.”

Felton averaged 11.4 points and 6.5 assists per game last season — down from his averages of 15.5 and 8.3 the previous season, which he split between the Knicks and Nuggets.


Dude... you came into camp fat, outta shaped and sucked. What don't you understand about that?

first:

>with the Knicks,

http://i.imgur.com/Hx2Gaga.gif


then how you gonna write this:

accepted responsibility for his performance
>and fitness not being up to standard with Portland.

when he says this:
>“It was kinda being put into an unfair situation,”

and this:
>
>“Then I was out of shape. I got kinda relaxed because I didn’t
>think we were going to have a season. I did what I had to do.
>I felt like I was professional,

that's not accepting responsibility, nor being professional. and speaking of unfair, how bout the blazers paying you money to play and the one thing you control, what goes in your mouth and your effort, isn't helping them win ballgames.

I'm finding it harder and harder to like any of these people.

the best thing about him is that he makes $3million a year which is a great price for our backup pg next season.

The only question is how/where do we get a starter???

What could you get in the draft?

Myck Kabongo could drop to the 20s but the way hes playing he may end up top 20.

Supposedly they could cut white and sign delonte but hes not a long term answer either.


You can find options overseas like Rockets found Beverley.

Go sign NJ's own Quincy Douby from the CBA


Dude just dropped 75 in a game.

Hes more of a undersized 2 though

Quick has never been one to make many friends. He was pretty brutal on the Trailblazers previous front office before ripping on Felton last season.

Per his Twitter: "I was the only one Felton wouldn't take questions from. Dang it. I guess I was the one he didn't want to come around him. #sadface"
