Please to be staying hot and getting into the playoffs with Milwaukee. It's always fun to see underdogs in and fighting against the top teams - especially for the Bobcats being the first time for a lot of players.
It's a long way until the playoffs. IMO there are 7 teams fighting for 2 spots. 7. Philadelphia 19.0 8. Chicago 21.5 9. Milwaukee 22.0 10. New Jersey 22.0 11. Charlotte 22.5 12. Indiana 23.5 13. New York 24.0
I really hope the Bobcats make it. Aside from the fact that the fanbase deserves a taste of some success, they are an entertaining team to watch right now. They hustle, defend, and spread the floor well enough for Okafor to operate.
If Michael Jordan returns to the NBA once more, to play SF off the bench for you? Then yeah, the Bobcats might make the playoffs. Otherwise? No chance in hell. I know, I know, it looks like they have a good shot, but listen to this... THE CHICAGO BULLS ARE A MUCH BETTER TEAM! Chicago will get the 8 spot, and the Bobcats organization will be watching the playoffs from the house again. Although, I will admit, they are getting much closer than they've ever been before, to actually getting into the playoffs. The only thing is, what good is making it if you're an 8 seed and going down in the first round? Still, Diaw and Bell were nice pick ups, Richardson was a smart dumb, now just get Okafor some help down low and you might have a pretty good, deep team that could play with the big boys.
