Michael Jordan said Tuesday that Bickerstaff, who also serves as general manager, will finish the season and remains an "integral part" of the franchise. "I don't see him distancing himself away," Jordan said. "I feel he's been an important part to getting this franchise to where it is now. It will give me the most pleasure to continue that process until we get to where we have to go."</div> Oh well. The Bobcats are headed in the right direction, though. They have such a nice young core, I think they will be a playoff threat in about 2 years. You have the size, the interior presence, some scorers, one of the best young point guards and one of the best playmakers in the league, a good veteran leader in Knight, and some decent young role players. Not to mention the top 5 pick this year. Let's hope Jordan makes the right picks and doesn't blow it.
