    Playing at the NC Pro-Am (can we get a Felton vs. Nolan game?):

    [video=youtube;cyh5-eYuL4c]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cyh5-eYuL4c&t=2m18s[/video]

    (This link should start at 2:18, but it doesn't seem to be doing that. Skip ahead and you'll see it say that Felton is #8 in white.)

    Description of the game:

    I'm trying to think of successful chunky PGs. Sherman Douglas? John Bagley?

    Felton looks like Zbo's Mini Me.

    Well at least he is easy to spot out. Only one wearing a t-shirt and riding his shorts above his bellybutton . . . oh and the heavy looking one out there.

    I think you guys are overreacting. He's playing against tall and skinny college kids.

    I think that might have been a video from the future. Like, 18 years from now after Felton has been retired for 10 years and packed on 40 pounds. And ran like he was 60.

    He's a fucking professional athlete in his mid-twenties ... not a 40 year old accountant playing pickup at the 'Y'
    In the immortal words of Christian Bale:

    "So.

    Goddamn.

    Unprofessional."

    I'm not gonna put too much stock into this, but... if/when he struggles as a Blazer, I'm sure we'll hear all about his body shape.

    Baron was a chunky dude, and he was successful. When he wanted to be.

    Some people just have a little pudge that's tough to get rid of. I don't think the contrasting white shirt and long black shorts is doing Felton any favors either.

    The Blazers have put some faith in him by trading for him, I'm sure he'll respond to it, It's a once in a lifetime opportunity.
