    Raymond Felton of the Detroit Knicks is probably not as good as he thinks he is.

    Lin played way better D than Felton did this game. Felton shot the 3 ball better.

    Lin played excellent help D, helped lead to quite a few steals and also had 7 more rebounds.

    Maybe. But this is the absolute best Raymond Felton can really play. He's so near his ceiling he just bumped his head on the ceiling fan.

    Felton didn't set anyone up.

    He gave the ball to Melo who chucks it up for 3.

    Practically the entire game for the Knicks tonight was Felton bringing the ball up tonight and giving it to Melo who proceeds to shoot.

    His assists numbers are ridiculously inflated tonight.

    You dudes are looking for anything you can to prop this dude up. Grasping for air I might add.

    Lin got open shots because Parsons and Harden were on FIRE!!
    Felton had to work for his buckets because no one else except for Melo had it going on.

    That is how y'all do it for Jeremy Lin. Lol

    Does this board always tolerate trolls bashing the Rockets' players like this? This wouldn't be allowed on any Knicks' board I've seen.

    Really lol, Lin had a quiet good game, had a couple of nice crossovers we haven't seen this season until now, and should have had a few more assists due to missed open shots. But yeah, encouraging, but nothing spectacular.

    I don't really know you, but I'm going to guess that you really doN't like Lin, and in your haste to get a crack in didn't really think this through.

    Think of all the greatest athletes in the league - guys who can run like the wind or who can jump out of the building. Maybe you could write out a little list.

    Once you've got your list of the best athletes, go ahead and make a list of the best shooters and compare the two lists.

    I think you'll find that, if anything, freakish athleticism will hinder your ability to develop a jumper more than help. It's the reason that dumpy, unathletic white guys like Steve Kerr and Fred Hoiberg are able somehow to eek out a more successful NBA career than the James 'Flight' White types.

    felton passes the ball to melo....thats it...assists are inflated. The knicks guards are slow and old....you could clearly see that tonight. If you get offensive hitting shots like they did tonight Lins numbers will get better and better....

    He is at the moment. No debate about that. Potential wise lin is greater no doubt. The comparison can be made in a variety of relative ways...lets not get i to as there are no benefits in doing so
