Felton Injury Updates 

Post#1 » by fatlever » Sat Jan 12, 2008 5:25 am

please post any news about felton's injury here.

hopefully it looked much worset than it was.

we may not have anyone to play pg tomorrow vs detroit. mcinnis and andereson also nursing injuries.

we really really missed the boat on cj watson. the bobcats had 5 days to sign him to a 10 day contract before he eventually signed with golden state. bad decision on behalf of the front office...........again.

what are the chances we sign someone tomorrow from the nbdl to come in here and play tomorrow night. even if mcinnis can go, he cant play 48 minutes (god help us). randy livingston? andre barrett? are anthony goldwire or corey beck still in the league. :lol: ... the hornets always had them on speed dial.

Raymond Felton has a badly sprained right ankle


He hurt himself on a drive to the basket, passing backward to Emeka Okafor before turning his right foot inward along the baseline


"It had already turned," Felton said of the ankle sprain, "and then LeBron (James) stepped on it. Just a freak accident."


How long does he anticipate being out?

"I'll try to play," Felton said of tonight's Pistons game, "but they probably won't let me."


my god, felton is a freaking warrior. :clap: :clap: :clap:

lol, he'll always try to play. That was a freaking clutch shot he hit tonight, it would've been so sweet if he was able to make that shot at the end of the 1st OT fall.

Yeah, but on the other hand, you hope he learns from his poor shot selection at the end of the 1st OT. Should have blown by AV. Oh well, live and learn.

Hopefully Ray will be ready to go sooner than later. This is one of the worst things that could happen. If he's really hurt we don't even get a chance to evaluate him.

This has been my worse fear all year! Is Terrance Kinsey still available?

But other players, like Dermarr Johnson and Richie Frahm have come back to the states after signing a contract with a European team, what makes the Kinsey situation different?

I hope he doesn't rush back. It would suck to be without him tonight but suck even worse if he aggrivated it and was out for an even longer period of time.

I admire his will and want to play but we don't need him doing more damage

Last I heard Felton will try to play tonight. McInnis is injured, however, and I don't have a status update on him. No link but Fats can vouch for me.

Notes: Felton and McInnis both thought they'd be able to play Monday against Denver. "I'm going to go no matter what,'' Felton said ...

Plus looks like they are going to push the issue with the bad call ...

Andre Barrett was named D-League player of the Week and Jeff McInnis is averaging 4 pts and 4 assists in 24.5 minutes a game. I'm just saying.
