Felton

Is pretty good. Only Bobcat to play every game, and isn't that far behind Chris Paul per 48 minutes (4 points, 2 assists, 2 rebounds iirc). Also shoots 3's a lot better than I expected he would.

I can't wait for Knight to get out of the way and for him to have a decent 2 guard in the backcourt.

 

The more Felton play then more you can see that picking him with the 5th pick was not a bad pick or a high pick as some people said .I think if the Bobcat's can get and stay heatley .And in the offseason draft or sign a SG the bobcat's next year could very easy win 30game or even more.When heatley you can see that the bobcat's are not far away from makeing it to the playoff

 

He is starting to come along very nice. I expected it to be next year for him before he would get major minutes.

He is finally starting to shoot the ball better than earlier in the season. He has always had the tools to be a good or better PG in the Pros, I just thought he needed a little more maturity in his decision making on the court.

Him and Williams are the two players who I thought would have benefited with another year in college. Williams of course was a top pick, but he just wasn't ready for the NBA, but hopefully he will get there and won't have confidence issues. McCants, was glad to see him go and I don't think May's stock could have ever been any higher than the 2nd half of last year so he should have gone without a doubt.

 

FYI--he is listed as questionable for Friday with a sprained right big toe (injured in Wednesday's win over Philly). His ankle is fine, according to the team.

 

Felton being the 3rd point taken in 5 picks, I couldn't be upset about the pick, even if he wasn't great. The problem I had was the duplicity and apparent homerism of the May pick, given Okafor and Ely, and Brezec.

I'm happy with what I've seen of Felton. PPG's coming up, but still a bit low, and should improve.

 

I didn't and still don't think Felton will be a good pro, but hopefully he can continue to put up some decent numbers on a horrible team. I guess it sucks for Bobcats fans that one fewer win last season would have landed them Chris Paul instead.

 

and how would that have happened? The bobcats had the best chance (or 2nd best) to land the number 1 pick, and their number combinations did not come up for them until the 5th pick. The lottery system backfired on them last year. No number of wins or losses would have made a difference.

 

Nah, dude. The lottery only determines the first three picks. The fourth goes to the remaining team with the worst record, although I believe the Bobcats and Hornets were tied for that mark. I don't remember how they broke the tie, but obviously Charlotte would have had the 4th pick if they had lost one more game than New Orleans.

 

Felton has picked it up with getting more minutes, but it's not like Knight has done bad either. Every time I see the stats it looks like Knight has 7 8 or 9 assists, and Felton has 16 points. He's done a lot better since the beginning of the year and I think the Bobcats winning the past three games has a lot to do with how well Felton has played. They are on pace to beat their 16 wins last season, and if they can get to at least 20 wins this year it can convince people on the team and in the city that the team is headed in the right direction.
