Raymond Duhon

but Felton has already attacked the basket more in preseason than Chris Duhon did in his entire career as a Knick.

if felton sucks so hard, you should be upset that we didn’t re-sign duhon, because he would have costed less. so just stop you booze hound!

Simply the fact that Felton has gone hard to the rack several times makes him better than Duhon.

Duhon refused/could not get to the rim, and on the few occasions when the defense fell asleep and let him coast through the paint for a layup, he missed the layup. Duhon was just plain bad at basketball.

Felton has played badly during the preseason. It’s true. But when you watch Felton, his mistakes are not the mistakes of a guy with no skills. His mistakes are the mistakes of a guy who isn’t sure about the system he is playing in. And you know what? That’s allowed, because he just got here, and D’antoni’s system is one of the most fast-paced frantic systems out there.

I also have been disappointed by Felton, but he’s also shown flashes of brilliance. He’s had some great finishes at the room, some good defense, and some perfectly threaded passes. You don’t do those things by luck. He’s going to be okay, even if it takes the first month of the regular season to figure it out.

He’s not Chris Duhon because he’s good at basketball.

teksurgical is blogging like chris duhon!

Shandon Anderson. But I’m not trying to make everyone throw up their lunch. I guess my point is you still got to make things happen when you get in the paint, other than bobble the ball or kick it back out. I’m not putting Felton on the level of those chumps just yet, but he does need to show us something. He had some nice connections to mozgov, and a few good finishes, but to me has looked shaky with the ball and a non-factor. no he’s definitley not as bad as duhon yet

should come Chris Childs Fist with a 9 page report telling me the truth…come on I’m waiting

it’s waaay too early to panic, sure we see some things that might bother us. I would love Felton to put up 15 and 10 during the preseason but it’s a looong season and we aint made a dent in the schedule yet.

When Duhon first came to town in his first few months he looked like he read the PG manual front to back and had it down cold enough to have Dantoni bench Clyde in his prime if it came to that.

but as we soon discovered fools gold is fools gold for a reason.

point is, everything aint always what it seems, and good or bad you need an adequate stretch of time to determine a players value/talent. Revisit 2 months from now and state your case.

If Duhon were here, probably every pass off the PnR would be going to STAT. Duhon was sort of the opposite of Raymond (so far).

All he’s gotta do is kill the turnovers like he did last night (8 assists, 1 turnover), and we’ll be good to go.

you are buggin way too early. He’s had a few games to pefect the p&r and lead the offense to a lights out attack like most of us have envisioned. BUt truth is tho, everyone needs games under their belt to gel with the guys around him and know the system well. Unless you are the focal point who scores, dishes, and defends, your stats and play arent going to convert that easily team to team. its been what, 4 games? chill my man

with duhon you would always complain about how that shitcan refused to push the ball and keep the tempo up. but felton has been pushing every time he gets the opportunity.

if the pick and roll is the simplest play and everyone in the nba has been doing it since they were babies… it’s only a matter of time. i dunno…

let’s take a look at some preseason stats and make purely objective conclusions:

Felton doesn’t look comfortable running the offense: he’s Chris Duhon.

The Magic, Celtics, and Grizzlies are 5-0 this preseason: they will go undefeated.

Kobe has shot 30% from the field, including 12% from 3pt land: he will only average 12 ppg this season.

Amare will lead the league in scoring this year (22.8 ppg). Nipping at his heels: The scoring machine that is Aaron Afflao (20.8 ppg).

John Wall has the most assists per game so far: he is the best distributor in the league.

Jarret Jack has shot 83% from downtown this year: he is the best shooter in the NBA.

Sample size…Preseason…Enough of this crap.

not literally but I want to say one thing. That means three things. (1) You guys took it to the level that Felton = Duhon, not me. I said “Raymond Felton is playing like Chris Duhon.” Which was more than true before last night.
(2) I think he read this post because last night he played like he used to play against us, and he didnt shake so much
(3) Be careful to heed your own words, alla you clowns. You couldnt make a full judgement before last nights game, you can’t make one now either after a good game.
I apologize for bringing up Duhon that name is poison. But I didnt say half the shit you animals said I said, and furthermore. Mr Smuckles…thats a lot of assuming right there…
