So after this big win against the Bulls.....

[Zaximus]

Who else is really excited? I didn't want to buy into it yet, but after taking them down it's hard not to be excited. I know they didn't have Noah, but still.

I know Felton is having an all-star year in NY, but DJ is playing excellent basketball. Dropping 22 points and 12 assists with only ONE turnover tonight, is evidence. DJ is looking like a #1 pick and he had to play under LB for the beginning of the season, imagine all season under Silas. I do not regret the Felton decision at all right.

I hate Jax, but he's such a tease and comes up with nice shots sometimes. I'd still like to deal him honestly.

Wallace is back and looked energized.

Tyrus is a monster, seriously. I don't regret trading for him at all. That may end up being our best trade yet.

Diaw is surprising me, mainly his defense. I am the biggest Diaw hater but I can't deny he's been playing light years better than he did last year. I'd be kind of sad at this point to lose him via trade, and that's huge considering my past hate.

Kwame even playing well right now. Hendo showing flashes. We have things to look forward to Bobcats fans.

And how about our owner, on the court, and fired up. Shaking everyone's hands at the end of the game. Not only is that encouraging for the fans/players because he's the owner, but he's also Michael Jordan so it means a lot to those guys.

The fans at the stadium sounded good tonight too.

Took the words out of my mouth.

Bobcats Basketball is fun again! Now it's time to take it to Boston.

And yes, the win does legitimatize Paul Silas' affect on the team. He needs to stay.

[Eazy-E]

Yeah where are all the people who wanted to blow it all up only about a month ago.

[rico6]

To be fair, Everybody wanted to blow this team up because of Larry. Jordan's recent moves has made the fanbase eat their share of crow.

Edit: Even Jordan himself quickly changed his tune on DJ when he saw how different (in a good way) he played under Silas than Larry; resulting in MJ quickly taking DJ off the trading block.

[Zaximus]

Jax is the only one I'd love to deal right now, but I think he's staying with us the rest of this year, we'll see.

Tough game against Boston Friday, I'm not expecting a win, but I hope we make them earn it.

[Dpantherman]

pretty sure I said blow it all up

[rico6]

lol Dpantherman, we all did.

[Panthers128]

I'm excited but the team dug a really big hole early and it may come back to bite us later this season. Last year the Bucks were lights out at the end of the year as were the Heat. We don't have much room for error. Gotta keep up the good work.

[pantherfan49]

Think of how good this team would be if Tyson was still the man at Center....

[HeatCheck]

Yeah where are all the people who wanted to blow it all up only about a month ago.

I mean in a way that was understandable. We weren't playing well regardless of LB's stubbornness. Everyone was lethargic. Now we have a coach that let's our players play to their strengths. It really has rejuvenated our team.

Jax is the only one I'd love to deal right now, but I think he's staying with us the rest of this year, we'll see.

Jackson will be Jackson. You have to take the good with the bad. If we traded him, I highly doubt we'd make the playoffs.

[SOJA]

I still am for trading both Diaw and Jackson if the right deal came on the table.....but the cats look good right now. Paul Silas is making brown look bad

[HeatCheck]

I say keep what we have. I think thats what the brass' intentions were when we got the new coaching staff. We had to see what Silas could do with our team to see what the problem was. We found that it was LB.

I can't believe people are for trading Diaw and Jax but never bring up Gerald. He has been disappointing to me this year. People have figured out his game and he can't hit a FT. But with that said I say keep him, and see what Silas can do. I'm not sure there are too many trades that drastically improve our chances of making/advancing in the playoffs.

[Zaximus]

I think we all should hold off on trade opinions till some more games. Wallace looked good tonight and with Silas everyone is looking better minus Jax, who's issue is just putting up dumb shots and stupid turnovers.

[MadHatter]

I give unbelievable props to Silas. He has this team playing fun basketball.

Outstanding job coaching and guiding this team.
