Raymond Felton is optimistic about the talent that the Charlotte Bobcats have assembled; so much so that he is predicting a playoff berth for the club.

"It's playoffs. Definitely," Felton said during a news conference to promote the Bobcats' Oct. 17 exhibition with the Washington Wizards at North Carolina, where he played in college. "We have that type of talent. And I have that much confidence in my team."
