Not suprising at all and to be honest if Jordan makes the right coaching and drafting moves this off-season I could really see their team being in the playoffs next yr.

He drafted morrison over brandon roy and randy foye i think jordan making a good personel move is not likely they would have been set. However if they somehow get durant to pair with wallace and okafur, watch out. In that case i could see them spending a little money maybe on vince

Actually Morrison was the better pick over those 2 considering the make-up of their team. Roy is a ball dominant player, which they didn't need. They turned the keys over to Felton who is ideal to have as a playmaker for their roster. Felton helped develop other players along with his own game. They have 2 solid shooters in Morrison and Carroll, a ball distributor, an athletic win defender, a stud center, what they need now is a stud 2-3gaurd/forward(Vince-Lewis). pick best player available wherever they end up in the draft. If Noah is on the board that's who they should take if not pick best player available wherever they end up in the draft. They need to use the available cap space if they have any left after FA signings, extensions, and picks to shore up a bench.

Bick almost did not come back this year as he will focus on just being GM.

The team is ripe for the next stage.

I think Oden would look good on this team!

Geez.. Oden and Okefor on the same team..... that is something the rest of the league does NOT want to think about. That is an all-time front line.

If they can get him that would be sick. I don't think the Bobcats will get the #1 or #2 pick.

Morrison dominates the ball are you kidding he shoots every time he touches it and not to bring up stats but morrison overall game is terrible

He is slow footed and has been putting it up 13 times a games which is a ton for a rookie.

Am 12.9pts (13fga) 39% 3.1rbs 2.1ass 0.4stls in 31 minutes

Roy 15.9pts (13fga) 44.9% 4.1rbs 4.0ass 1.2stls in 34 minutes

Having two players that can handle the ball and do multiple things is what you want out of your guards not a one dimensional player.

Morrison comes off the bench as a shooter and nothing more at this point. He subs for Matt Carroll. My main point was to bring out the fact you won't have another young player trying to establish himself by needing the ball taking it out of Felton's hands. Morrison only gets shots if the ball comes his way. I wasn't implying that ball domination meant shooting, it was moreso of having the ball in one's hands dictating play Roy does plenty of this. Roy is a good player but I feel Morrison was the better choice. Especially when you consider who they may target in FA this off-season.

Is Ed Tapscott still with the Bobcats? I wonder if he stills stay in contact with Fredrick Weis.
