Felton DOES NOT make all-rookie team

The link from Yahoo

He is all the way down on the All-Rookie 2nd team, behind Paul, Bogut, Charlie V, Channing Frye, and Deron Friggin Williams.
What a crock!

Here is the complete breakdown.

2005-06 T-Mobile NBA ALL-ROOKIE FIRST TEAM
Player Team First (2 pt) Second (1 Pt) Total
Chris Paul New Orleans 29 - 58
Charlie V. Toronto 27 2 56
Andrew Bogut Milwaukee 26 3 55
Deron W. Utah 18 10 46
Channing Frye New York 17 11 45

2005-06 T-Mobile NBA ALL-ROOKIE SECOND TEAM
Player Team First (2 pt) Second (1 Pt) Total
Danny Granger Indiana 14 15 43
Raymond Felton Charlotte 14 12 40
Luther Head Houston 4 20 28
Marvin W. Atlanta - 15 15
Ryan Gomes Boston - 14 14

The rookie team was voted on by the 30 head coaches, each coach could not vote on a player from their own team. No wonder some of these coaches don\'t make it more than a season or two in the NBA, they don\'t recognize talent.

This is a bad sign for Gerald Wallace, If the other coaches are going to openly screw Raymond Felton like this on the All-Rookie team voting, then they probably won\'t even vote G-Force onto the 1st, 2nd or 3rd All-Defensive team.

They should make the votes of the coaches public. I would love to know which 3 coaches didn\'t think he was top 10. Hopefully he\'ll use this as motivation to rip the NBA up next season.

Felton will use this as motivation next season.

Raymond comes in 4th place in the Rookie of the Year voting. I don\'t have a big problem with Villanueva finishing ahead of him, at least thats a legitimate argument, but Bogut finishing third is bogus.
