Raymond Felton will play against the Clippers

After taking four games to rest his sore hip (and hamstring), Raymond Felton will suit up tonight against the Clippers. We didn't even have to wait until after his nap to find out:

Woodson said plans to start Raymond Felton but worried about his conditioning.

#knicks Raymond Felton will dress. Woodson says he is not 100% healthy but is probable to play vs #Clippers tonight.

So, that's less than ideal. Felton, who is already ill-equipped to battle Chris Paul, will play that match-up on a leg that is still somewhat balky and with minimal full-speed practice in his recent past. That should be fun! Hopefully Ray's not as winded or still-injured as one might expect from those tweets.

A game thread will be up much later because tonight's game is very late and because I've gotta do some traveling between now and then.
