Maybe if he was like a thunder player for 10 years he could say something stronger to the media, but he's new here. So far Felton is doing great in a Thunder uniform. It's not his role to do such things.

We're gonna go out there and be really really polite. Act really calm, play nice and slow. It's gonna be like slow 70s music. We might not be playing well, but...

It's on Russ, Adams or Melo/PG13 to say something stronger to the medias if they want to have some repercussion into the locker room. I hope Felton is giving his opinion in the locker room but I don't find anything wrong about saying to the media ''we will play angry''. 1 month ago he was a terrible back up PG and now he should publicly open his mouth about how we suck?

I know we are looking for players & staff members to blame (and it's right to do so because we are trashhhhh) but Felton's level is probably the best thing that happened to the team so far this year.

You guys are really way way too into this lol. I got nothing to calm you. I don't know what you want other than everyone to rant about things, but OK.

I'm pretty calm actually :) I just find it hilarious that people have to comment (and make conclusions) about a pretty standard answer from Felton to the medias :crazy:

This is boilerplate "we're coming off bad losses" interview talk.

I want him to say that he is playing for the worst coach he has ever played for. I know he would not say that, but it is what I want him to say. You very rarely get someone to actually call out a player or coach no matter how much everyone knows it needs to happen. Russ had the leverage to force a change, but he gave that away when he signed his extension.

We're...moving the ball? With purpose? Making extra passes? Donovan getting fired up?

What is this? I'm not sure. But so far, I like it.

Gotta see it for four quarters before I get too excited.

George checking out before Melo. Does that mean he’ll roll with the second unit?

George is such a poor ball handler. Even on that fast break he almost lost it unforced.

Checked the score once and we were up 21-12. Checked it again 5ish minutes later and it's tied 30-30. 18-9 scoring run for the Nuggets.

Awesome.

It could change with more reps, but George with the bench looks bad. More movement, but less offense.

The need for a true back up C is glaring. Getting killed inside.

Hopefully Presti steals Noel away earlier than later

At least the bench are also moving the ball, just not hitting anything.
