Raymond Felton won't stop for a sprained ankle.

PrintRaymond Felton rolled his ankle something fierce during the third quarter of last night's Knicks-Blazers game. He kept playing, though, and via Alan Hahn, now insists that he'll be ready to go for tonight's match-up with the Jazzes. Felton still hasn't missed a game this season despite injuries to his back, hand, and now ankle. The man is unstoppable. He is some combination of warrior, bulldog, rugged penguin, and little engine that could. Or is he something else? From that Hahn article, Ronny Turiaf had this to say about his point guard:
"With him, we're on the same page at all times," Turiaf said of Felton. "He directs traffic, in a sense, and my job is 10 times easier when somebody tells me what to do. I like to follow orders. He's my little general. My midget general. And I really enjoy playing with him."
Yeah, or that.

I love this bearded bastard

Almost take Ray for granted
coutless times this year you see him wincing in pain and yelping either back to the bench or just getting back on D. But then he goes right off and drops a sick crossover ducket at whoever dare guards him.
I think we can expect a good game out of him today too. Deron is the best PG in the game and he always seems to play up or down to his comp (luckily there’s a lot of good PGs in the NBA…)
Last night, a comedian died in New York. Somebody knows why. Somebody knows
Chris Paul
Is the best PG, and it’s not really that close.
aside from Deron Williams
yea, I agree.

Aside from getting injured and playing for a mediocre small-market team
What has CP3 done to lose that title?

never thought he had it.

Agreed D-Will's the best
Paul’s not even having that great of a year. A few seasons ago and when he was putting up like 24, 10 and 4 then he was the best, but others have passed him. And I’m hoping Felton gets up for this game. However, Williams is in a little slump, so he may catch a break a little bit
yea but ray-ray has more cartilage
Dr. James Andrews removed the torn portion of the cartilage and did not repair it, Paul said.

isnt it crazy that this was up for debate before
the season started!
I am a fan of both the mets and knicks... so just kill me now.
i was skeptical at first
but i knew there was no way the guy could be worse. and i knew he would be significantly better. but i had no idea what he was capable of.
duhon, in his first season, broke down toward the end of december, felton is only getting better.
his handle is infinitely better, he throws passes that have some mustard on them. duhon, was never able to make a pass that wasn’t soft. he gets over picks with gusto. he pushes the tempo. he shines when the going gets tough. i mean- everything that duhon was capable of was utterly worthless. and felton is specifically the opposite. duhon was such a little bitch, and felton is tough as nails. gotta give it up to this guy!

i pretty much knew right away
because all i could remember initially, was how he always seemed to torch us when we played agains CHA
"they try to do what he do, and been where he's been, but they get folded in two.....he's the dude"
Yeah I never doubted Ray Ray
And that’s not supposed to be gloating I just knew he’d adjust and be magnificent. To me, he really seems like a name like Starks or something that gets fondly tossed around 15 years from now
To quote Jules Winfield
They’re not in the same league, they’re not even in the same motherfuckin’ sport.

although, to be fair
Kurt Thomas is one tough MoFo
I am a fan of both the mets and knicks... so just kill me now.
I seem to always forget about Kurt. Maybe because of the teams he was on but Kurt was great

Funny how Houston’s jersey looks like it would spell out “Hustler” or something like that.
Starks > Jordan
His wife must have rolled her eyes when she saw that

As Sainted Coach JVG once said . . .
“We didn’t win every series, but we won every fight.”
I hate to admit it, but I’ll take it.

Come on this guy was pretty tough and badass
I feel like he isn’t remembered fondly enough or just mentioned enough but Spree was the fucking man
granted he did teach us how to properly choke out a coach
but spree ego was shattered like glass when he was passed up for houston (a decision i disagree with at the time) he was never the same since.

Choking out the coach didn't happen with NY so it doesnt count
And yeah, he wasn’t himself in Minny but he was also older then. His time with the Knicks was glorious
there is no way we do not resign this guy
if that happens I will stop watching basketball
Ray is a pitbull general
def my vote for most improved player of the year award
so glad we signed him, he was key
by Archie Barberio on Jan 12, 2011 11:59 AM EST reply actions
so at this rate
coach of the year? most improved player? mvp candidate?
might as well thro the nba championship in there and this would b one of the greatest stories in sports lol
"they try to do what he do, and been where he's been, but they get folded in two.....he's the dude"
Rookie of the year
Candidate. Very unlikely winner though
Oh actually two most improved players
Chandler is in that discussion
hahaha
Gotta be best quote ever form Turiaf.. he likes to be told what to do. I always thought he has high IQ, that was off the charge IQ… Why waste time thinking when you have some one else to think for you right? His thinking is rightfully reserved for coming up with new facial expression when ref makes a bad call. Love Turiaf.
plus you have to be pretty smart to listen

Did anyone see his post game interview with Tina?
So enthusiastic. “Thank you for having me!”
yes
i took note of that, as i don’t think i’ve ever heard a player in any sport say that, or at least say it so enthusiastically
