Mahoney: Raymond Felton Has Bright Blazers Future
A little national attention on new Portland Trail Blazers point guard Raymond Felton from Rob Mahoney at the New York Times "Off the Dribble" Blog.
----------------
Getting up and down the court certainly didn’t hurt Felton, but pace alone wasn’t what enabled him to post career highs in P.E.R., assist rate, and offensive rating. Felton doesn’t have the kind of breakneck speed or impressive athleticism that would make him a weapon in the open court. The key was in playing alongside Amar’e Stoudemire, the most talented teammate Felton has ever had, and suiting up for Mike D’Antoni, an offensive wizard whose half-court system is criminally underrated.
With those factors in mind, Felton has actually landed with an interesting Knicks analogue. Portland and New York couldn’t be more different in terms of pace, but the Blazers, too, have an All-Star caliber big man in LaMarcus Aldridge, and a savvy coach in Nate McMillan who can be trusted to orchestrate an offense in a way that Larry Brown and Bernie Bickerstaff simply could not.

For those of you (like me) who want to post the schedule on their fridge for easy reference, I created this printable schedule for your convenience.
Even players that'll probably only be on the team for a month deserve some video goodness.
P. Allen taking the Clay Bennett approach?

on Blazer's Edge
I was excited for Draft Day.
Now, I am a bit more contemplative (read: conspiratorial).
Shortly before the Sonics moved out of Seattle, it appeared that Clay Bennett's M.O. was to draw the ire of every Sonics fan, making it oh so much easier to pack up and move. Paul Allen is no dummy. He knows how much KP has meant to the Blazer fanbase.
Is this just one chess move towards a relocation to his hometown? Or is there still something more sinister about the whole thing?

Lamarcus: The King Cobra?
Joe Freeman just mentioned that the locker room is referring to LMA as "The King Cobra" (in the second installment of FreeMail).
What do you guys think? Apt? Can you think of a better nickname?
