CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- Stephen Jackson has a message for his Charlotte Bobcats teammates with LeBron James headed to Miami.

Any vacations should end immediately.

No more time at the beach for the Bobcats

While Jackson says he thinks James should have signed with Chicago or stayed in Cleveland and "showed a little more loyalty," Jackson isn't backing down from the challenge of facing a stacked Heat team that also includes Dwyane Wade and Chris Bosh.

The Bobcats also must still contend with Dwight Howard and Orlando, Atlanta with Joe Johnson coming back and Washington with rookie John Wall in perhaps the best division in the NBA.

Jackson says he "loves it" and contends the Heat are not invincible. But the guard indicated Friday his teammates need to get in the gym now since "it's going to be even harder."

This is the new and improved Stephen Jackson and I love it, S-Jax is talking like he believes the Bobcats can win a ring now!!!

He's delusional. The fact is the Bobcats got worse and every other team in our division got better. It'll be a huge accomplishment to make the playoffs this year.

I like that he's trying to get in better shape though, but I feel bad for him if he really thinks they have a chance to win a championship/series. Maybe if LeBron tears his ACL.

Hawks, Celtics, Magic, Heat, Bulls, Bucks

I say those 6 are locked for playoff spots. I'm not sold on any other teams yet, but losing Felton and Thomas will really hurt the Cats.

The good thing about all these stars going to one team is that the Raptors and Cavaliers should be mediocre- bad teams. Also I don't think the Knicks will do much. Stoudemire is probably a downgrade compared to David Lee. John Wall won't have enough to work with, the Nets haven't gotten much better and lost Yi I think.

Even though the Raptors and the Cavaliers regressed?

If were not in the playoffs I'll be surprised.

Yeah I didn't think about that, they do have a good chance, but losing Felton and Thomas will hurt their chances. They have a good a chance as anyone at that 7 or 8 seed.

Felton helped us make the playoffs, but once we got there he helped us get swept...

      Smith-Wade for me. He has the path to some decent hefty snaps in Evero’s scheme. He held his own last year and improved as he continued to get snaps— If he makes some strides, could be a very capable nickel.  I agree with Sanders. Bryce had some trust in him that final Falcons game post crazy head-stand.  Bryce looked for him a lot that final game and made some critical catches to get us the W. Seems he’s put in major work so I’m hopeful about him.  Wallace will have an offseason under his belt. I like him a lot, was higher graded than most remember in his draft (I.e Brugler had him LB3/70 overall) but he isn’t as cerebral of an LB as we’re used to. I think he could thrive if we get D captain/film-junky type next to him— because right now that’s Jewell.  Still a bit cautious but love the talent. Rozeboom may snag some playing time from him if he’s still working out the kinks.

      Panthers Preseason

      Didnt Canales already say starters are playing in the pre season? either way extra reps dont hurt but im not one of those people that think playing in the pre season would have saved Bryce from an awful start.

      very helpful.  I read back in this thread where they might try Jarvis at C--I thought he and Aho had good chemistry, however.  Nonetheless, he could expand his value there, and now we have a guy who can play jarvis' spot.  Freddie is a pro, no doubt--and as little as I know about the inner workings of strategy and positions, I could tell Burns was burning us at times.  I figured he'd retire and I was looking forward to it.  FWIW, they have Jarvis listed as a C on the 2025-26 roster.
