Charlotte Observer:
Tyson Chandler has a long way to go before the trade that brought him to the Charlotte Bobcats looks like a good deal.Coach Larry Brown anticipated Chandler being rusty, after missing all summer and most of the preseason following ankle surgery. But through his first two games, he'd committed more fouls (nine) than he scored points (six). And considering how little he strays from the basket, his shooting (3-of-13) has been awful.

In the midst of that conversation, Paul was approached by Celtics guard Rajon Rondo - less than 24 hours away from signing a long-term extension...

Two games into the season Raymond Felton has already missed three free throws off technical fouls. Maybe he doesn't like shooting with nobody else in the lane? Bobcats center Tyson Chandler played just eight minutes in the first half, after committing two fouls and missing his only shot. That was partially about matchups - the Knicks play so small their opponent can essentially...
