    I know, I know, Emeka and Gerald are still here but look at what Raymond has done when healthy. If he was healthy the whole season I think he would be Co-Rookie of Year with CP3. Raymond's stats are great, and he brings excitement when he plays, I know you build your team around a big man but I think Raymond is really a good player and will only go up from here on out.

    What do you guys think? Is he a player the Bobcats should keep until he's too old to walk or is he just another stud rookie that will be part of some blockbuster deal a few years down the road?

    It ashame too. The TNT gang talked about ROY, and how CP3 is a no brainer for the award, but Reggie brought a good point about Felton. If he didn`t suffer his health problems this season, he would of given Paul a run for his money for the honor.

    To answer your question, Felton has showed that like Paul, can also dish the ball and shoot well, next season should determine more about Felton, and what he can do for this team. Right now, it`s to early to tell what his future with the team can be.

    He's definitely a keeper if he stays healthy. He's got 18/10 potential.

    I agree, Felton would have given CP3 a run for his money if he didn't get injured. He's gonna be the main PG for Charlotte for years to come.

    Felton would have gone close to Paul if he'd had a chance to start, his health problems had very little to do with it.

    Felton and Paul are going to be amazing players, both are so poised, so talented and so professional.

    IMO Paul still would of won the award, but Felton and the way he has been playing could of kept a steady pace with CP3.

    man..i want felton in a raptors jersey lol
    Would this trade suit you bobcat fans:

    Raptors get: Felton and Ely

    Bobcats get: Mike James, Raptors first round pick, and Joey Graham.

    I'm the biggest Chris Paul fan on this earth, but you can't ignore Felton's numbers.

    Since starting he's gone for roughly 15, 6 and 7, which are quite similar to Chris Paul's figures.

    I really think it'd have gone right down to the wire if Felton started from the first game,

    Haha

    They'll never trade Felton, but if they did it'd be for a legit centre rather than another PG.

    If Felton disappeared Brev would run the point in the future and do a better job than James would.

    felton is always good, we all know that

    just that in the begining of the the season he didn't get to play much (since brevin knight said he want to "mentor" him and hand him over the rein in 2nd half) and also because of injury

    at the same time, even if he get to play the full season, chris paul would still win the award

    simply because of better all around game and better team record

    that being said, felton is a great pick by bobcats

    If Felton had done to the Bobcats what Chris Paul did to the Hornets voters would have given Felton the award easily.
