Love watching him progress. Getting quicker and more comfortable around the rim, pulling out new spin and post moves, but most importantly, active on the defensive glass. Got a couple of blocks and would've had a couple more but is still a half a step behind everyone else. Once it gets there, oh man are we going to be dangerous. Felton pick n roll all day!


He needs to keep coming off the bench!!!


Even against a big team?

So that we can keep losing first quarters? That's not a winning strategy.

I'm assuming when Felton comes back we'll go with Felton-Kidd-Shumpert-Melo-Tyson as a starting 5. Replacing White with Felton will give the offense a huge boost.

At the moment, our backcourt is crowded and our front court is thin, so I expect Stat to keep coming off the bench.

Only when Felton is reasonably healthy or at least feeling confident enough to be a starter. If not, he should come off the bench for the time being.
