    If CHAR does not want to go over the lux cap and they and Felton appear far apart with very recent news, offer Felton a Utah type toxic front loaded contract, they may not match and I like Felton

    HUH, in your opinmion, not mine! And I believe the overall stats favor Felton and he does play some D.

    I agree. Felton has some upside remaining, but I simply don't like him as a PG because he's a poor-shooting shoot-first PG. Ick.

    Felton is trash. He might be a better ball player than Blake, but not enough to be called an upgrade. He can't shoot for shit and is turnover prone. No thanks.

    Felton isn't someone worth doing a "toxic" contract for.

    I see no reason to go after him, because the next move I would do is to shaft Denver into having to pay Kleiza. I would try to make the offer just dicey enough they have to pay him more than they wanted to.

    Nope, the stats show that both Blake and Felton are ass, though Felton is a bit worse.

    Here is a comparison of the two players from last season.

    Both are below average for their position.

    Both are pretty much ass.

    Neither is worth having.

    Since we already have Blake stinking it up, I see no good reason to bring on another below average point guard to take minutes away from Rudy.
