What did Felton say about Carmelo Anthony?
Felton couldn’t stop praising Carmelo and said, "That dude, just the way he can score, how easy it is for him, I don't know nobody who's better, to be honest with you. I'm talking Tracy McGrady, I'm talking about MJ, I'm talking about Kobe, LeBron, all these guys. The way he used to score at every level, I don't know nobody who's better, for real."
He further added, "Post-up, got footwork, midrange is impeccable, shoot the three, athletic, can dunk on you, get to the basket, had handles like a point guard. I'm just saying - whatever you want, he can give to you. Whatever you want. 'If you want just midrange all game, I got you. You want me to post you up? I got you. You want me to shoot the three? I got you."
What did Felton say about Kevin Durant?
Felton compared KD directly with Carmelo and said, "I haven't seen KD go off in the post like I've seen Melo go off in the post. Can KD score? For sure. Good gracious. That man can score easily. He scores easily for him to be 7-feet. They keep saying 6'11. That man ain't 6'11. That man 7-feet, 7'1. That man [is] tall. But Melo, I've seen Melo score everywhere. I haven't seen KD just get somebody in the post and I'm just gonna do you dirty, just post the whole game. I've seen Melo do that."
