I really thought this would be Felton's coming out party this season, but he still can't be 'that guy' at the point for the 'Cats.
Honestly, I haven't watched enough games to judge, so what the hell is up with Felton?
Has the team hurt his development at the point by pairing him with Knight in the past, and McInnis this season in the backcourt?
Or is he simply just not the guy for this team?
Frustration
Frustration is right. Nobody really knows what Ray's deal is. IMO, I just think he's too nice, laid back, and not really a leader. He's just not tough enough. Or hasn't been, not saying he can't be in the future. And the inconsistency is whats hurting us as a team and him.
Now the point guard spot is the toughest to learn, so it could mean he's still adjusting. Problem is, this franchise needs a stabilizing presence in the backcourt because we really need to start winning right now. And it didn't help that MJ brought in Shiny Head to coach this team. Horrible choice for our youngins.
As far as him being the right guy for this team, the jury is still out on that. However, I think we would draft or trade for a top point guard this summer if the opportunity presents itself. Either way, it should be an interesting offseason between figuring out what to do with Okafor, and figuring what Ray's role will be next season.
And it would not surprise me if Ray and Okafor aren't here next season.
