Funny you mention Felton, I hooped with him this week at a Charlotte YMCA. I didn't realize it was really him until I got home and googled his face. I don't think he was trying his hardest, but he didn't seem that good. He did stop and pop from 3 and hit at a very high clip, but for the most part seemed like a regular player. It was the first time I've played with an NBA player. It was funny because I told my friends who don't know basketball and had to tell them he's basically the worst player in the league.
I wouldn't say fat because I googled pictures and he was heavier in many of the pictures, but he doesn't look like nba fit. He actually looked pretty muscular and bulky, like he was bulking and needed to cut. His shirt was a thin under armor and you could see a 6 pack, but covered in an extra layer. Think off-season Harden with 5-6 extra pounds all in the stomach.
Yes, no thanks to me. Raymond hit some deep shots. After realizing it was him, I have to assume he wasn't trying his hardest. Didn't drive once, but really didn't need to. He really just blended in and seemed like a good shooter. You see guys like that all the time at the Y, and this was the 6AM crew, so a lot of those guys hoop everyday.
I think someone left the gym and called his friends with a hilarious story about how he convinced some dude that he was Raymond Felton... lol
Why is it so far fetched? Guy never said "I'm Raymond Felton", so not sure how he "convinced" me. Felton went to school in NC and played his first 5 seasons in Charlotte. He's more likely to live in Charlotte than anywhere.
Just looked at realty site that confirms Raymond Felton owns a house 3-4 miles from the Ballantyne YMCA. I posted the link but pulled it because it has people's phone numbers in it, potentially his. I don't feel cool posting it, but feel free to google Sullivan Ridge Dr 28277, Raymond Felton. Just for good measure his mother Barbara, lives in the same neighborhood on Redwood Valley Ln.
Javaris Crittenton or Manute Bol. Considering what happened with Crittenton in Washington, I'm giving my vote to him.

Don’t know if he was really all that bad, but I remember Eddie Curry looking pretty awful against Yao.
