    Felton is an excellent defender. Better, by far, than Blake. Better than Bayless, at least for the next couple years. Better than Hinrich? maybe, maybe not. If Hinrich isn't available, Felton would be a nice defensive upgrade. In my opinion, defense on the perimeter was our greatest weakness. Felton would help shore up that issue. Is his bad shooting worth it? Well...if Pritchard believes so, I guess I'd be okay with it.

    Felton? Holy crap, if this is KP's definition of "going for it," we all better find new hobbies.

    What a joke.

    Once you get used to it, it's awesome! It's such a pain having to get out the laptop when you're at home or out and about.

    I'm with you. Felton is an underrated defender. I'm not necessarily advocating swapping Blake for him, but more adding him as a back-up for Blake instead of Bayless.

    I have no clue why so many people think Jerryd is ready to take over for Sergio. He's shown NOTHING, but one game, IMO, where he could be relied on to lead the team in even a reserve roll. People are either selling Sergio short for what he meant to the team or they're seeing something that I haven't from Jerryd.

    I'd much rather get Hinrich, Sessions, or possibly even the spark plug that is Nate Robinson before Felton, but I completely understand if Felton is in our sights. When he was on the floor for the Bobcats, they were better for it, even when he was having to play out of position. He's very coachable and would be a big asset to the team IMO.

    Felton ... I ... ummm ... hmmm?

    I guess I thought KP has this thing about point guards who can actually shoot the ball? Gotta say, I'm really curious where this rumor is coming from.

    Well if KP is going to completely fuck up this summer, he might as well finish it off right by bringing in Felton. That would just be the piss in the punch.
