I felt scouts were WAY to rough on him before the draft....He's been great when he has played for or with Brevin Knight, his shooting around the board is pretty poor but he's still young. I liked Felton over Deron Williams. I think when he matues he could put up Andre Miller like statistics...People were saying during the draft that he was a reach at #5 and I just didn't get it.
The only good thing about the Bobcats injuries this season is that Felton has gotten minutes at both PG and SG. I thought Felton was a stretch at #5 pick but he has proven me wrong. I like the quickness of the backcourt when Brevin are Felton are both in the game but they just don't have the height to guard oppossing shooting guards. If the Bobcats could bring in a quality SG either through draft or free agency I wouldn't mind seeing Felton and Brevin's roles changing, with Felton starting and Brevin coming off the bench.
I didn't think Felton was a stretch at 5 at all. I didn't understand the commentators comments on him. The guy is quick as hell, he's a team guy, when he learns how to shoot he will be a great PG.
He has very good passing skills, he has to work on his shot and his scoring ability though. But I think he will be a Luke Ridnour type unless he improves his scoring.
