Sean May can't believe that the Bobcats haven't given former teammate Raymond Felton a new contract yet.

"I don't know what the numbers are ? why they're so far apart ? but personally I think it's kind of ridiculous that going a month into training camp he doesn't have a deal done," May told the Charlotte Observer.

In addition to playing together with the Bobcats, Felton and May won a national title with North Carolina.

"You go down the list: He plays every day. He practices every day and a lot of NBA stars take days off. He doesn't get hurt, he's the best teammate," May added.

"The guy gets it done, and the team has gotten progressively better. You have to reward him for that."

Felton isn't nearly as outspoken about the ordeal.

"It hasn't happened yet, but it's going to happen ? that's all I can say," Felton said. "I think we're going to work something out."

If the point guard doesn't sign a long-term deal, he'll likely play next season on a one-year qualifying offer of $5.5 million, then become an unrestricted free agent in 2010.
