Two games into the season Raymond Felton has already missed three free throws off technical fouls. Maybe he doesn't like shooting with nobody else in the lane?
Bobcats center Tyson Chandler played just eight minutes in the first half, after committing two fouls and missing his only shot. That was partially about matchups - the Knicks play so small their opponent can essentially go center-less. Still, it's obvious Chandler still doesn't have his timing back after losing most of last season to an ankle injury.
It took Chandler nine shots to score this season - the points coming on a dunk off an alley-oop pass from Felton.
Very good officiating crew Friday night; when Joe Forte is your No.2 official ( Steve Javie was the lead official), you know you got lucky in the referee assignments.
Knicks forward Danilo Galinari has somewhat the same problem as the Bobcats' Alexis Ajinca: Skilled, but not strong enough to guard without fouling. I guess strength training just isn't as valued in European basketball as it is here.
