Yeah, I hear you. The previous below average Felton would be a HUGE improvement over the fat pile of shit we got.

It's bad when you would rather just want him released if we can't move him before the trade deadline. That's where I'm at with him right now.

See? That's what I'm saying.

Either he regains his game and the team maybe goes on a little run and gets to the playoffs (and maybe Felton can at least be a passable stopgap for a couple of years) or it's more of the same and we get the 12th seed and a lottery pick.

Win-win.
 
I don't understand why Nolan Smith isn't starting? How can he possibly be any worse than Felton?

Oh, FUCK NO!!! He's an expiring contract. Either trade him at the deadline for a future 2nd round pick or let him walk. Resigning Raymond Felton is our ticket to years in the lottery. If he's your starting PGm you're fucked, and we just saw that he sucks even worse coming off the bench than starting. If Raymond Felton in on our roster opening day of next season, I'll seriously consider sitting out the year. If management hasn't figured out by now that he's not the answer, I have no faith in them what-so-ever (not that I have a lot of faith in them now).

hehe. I had a feeling that might get a reaction.

Yeah, I'm sure that 1-9 performance against the Wolves was JUST what Felton needed to "settle down and play the type of basketball we need him to play". Does Nate even believe the shit that comes out of his mouth?

I think I will be more happy reading the news Nate is finally leaving PDX for good than making the playoffs. That's how badly I want him gone. I wish management got rid of him last summer.
 
Maybe Felton starting is what Crawford was referring to on Twitter earlier. I mean, who isn't surprised that Felton is suddenly starting again? Dude has been complete, utter garbage. It's shocking that we just haven't waived him. Cut our losses and move along.

"Showcasing" him for a trade?

Yeah, right. The more he plays, the more his value drops. Oh well, at least he's an expiring contract...

My post says nothing about showcasing Felton for a trade. Because, like you, I believe that putting Felton on the floor does more to harm his trade value.

On second thought.... can he be any worse? If he does anything well, it could cause a mini-spike in value, thereby netting the Blazers a 2nd rounder or "other considerations".
 
Felton just needs to string together a few good games in a row for some team to decided to take a chance on him.

"He is a proven commodity that didn't work in Nate's system" . . . need a few GM's thinking this way.
 
Have you ever had those days that you wish you had coccain to numb the depression? Well this debacle proves that we need drugs!

What's been shocking is how completely shitty the defense has been without Felton in the starting line-up.

Basically, the entire PG situation right now is a shit sandwich. It's too bad the Blazers can't do the old girls' basketball rule where one player stays on the offensive end of the court (Crawford), while another plays defense (Felton).

I think the quotes from Nate make it seem that this decision is coming from above Nate. I mean, he said, "we brought him in to be a starter."

I'm beginning to think that Nate is actively trying to get fired at this point. Calling out the team for not caring, putting Felton back in the starting line-up for no apparent reason, players going to the media to bitch about him ... seems to me he's had enough of the insane asylum known as Paul Allen's Portland Trail Blazers.

Happy trails, Nate, and I hope your next work experience is better than this Comedy of Errors.
 
So we know we are going to blame Nate no matte what:

Stupid coach for putting Felton back in starting line up

or

Stupid coach for taking Felton out of starting line up to begin with

Playing against Nola isn't a sign that you made the right choice. YMCA scrubs could beat them. Wait until this road trip. Wait until we see failton at it again.

This. At all costs, don't fuck with your only PG's head.

I'm sorry, once Failton is gone, I think I will be much happier. I'm tired of us having a turn over prone, can't shoot for shit, can't make a layup Failton! Once he is gone and possibly Nate, you will have the old Mags. I'm just frustrated right now. This team pisses me off because we are better than this.
