Comments from the other side - Bobcats 2/7

Have to feel for Bobcats fans. Most of their forums are all about how bad their own team is. But I have to give them props for staying with their team. Not a lot of hatred for the Celtics like we get on the NY boards and some others. Other than the person who thought it would be cool for Pierce to get stabbed, that is. I imagine we'll see lots of that in Thursday's game...

Cats Lack Luck of the Irish in Boston

The Bobcats continued their rather lengthy road trip as they have been out since 1/31. Things are different for the Celtics, who started off the season rough and sluggish. They currently ride a 4 game winning streak and have all of their players healthy. It's a different story for the Cats as they are still without Corey Maggette, DJ Augustin, and Gerald Henderson; who are their...

How About a Second Look at the Bobcats-Suns Game

TSP Andrew: Sometimes you just need to take several looks at a game from different perspectives. Since today is an off day, perhaps you want a second glance at what went down in Phoenix last night. If so, I think you need to read this: "Looks like Gortat needed three arms to control Diaw this time"BOBCATS FALL (AGAIN) 95-89 So… one of the worst records in NBA history...

Bobcats Insider: Can't beat Wizards? Then who?

Not beating the Wizards at home really places in question when the Bobcats will end this losing streak. Their upcoming trip includes the Lakers, Trail Blazers, Suns and Celtics. After that they play tough home games against the Bulls, Clippers and 76ers. The Bobcats have been particularly bad within the Southeast Division this season. They're now 0-7 against the other four teams...

Day 36 of 124: Kobe Bryant Passes Kareem

One milestone deserves another. One night after Kemba Walker joined Stephen Jackson and Boris Diaw in being the third rookie to achieve an elusive triple-double, Kobe Bryant surpasses Kareem Abdul-Jabbar for the most career field goals for the Lakers. Bryant is now also on track this season (91 points behind) to surpass Shaquille O’Neal who is fifth on the NBA’s all-time...

Day 35 of 124: Where Kemba Walker Joins Stephen Jackson and Boris Diaw

Line of the Night: It has been one wild ride this year for Tyreke Evans (2.57 WARP). Horrible shooting performances and single-digit scoring games followed by games like this against the Jazz: 31 points, with 6 rebounds, 9 assists and 2 steals. Evans owners would surely appreciate a little more consistency from Evans this season, but his highs keep them coming back for more. Honorable...

Report: Toronto Raptors Looking to Move Jose Calderon?

Last summer, the Raptors almost traded Jose Calderon to the Charlotte Bobcats, in a trade which would have sent Tyson Chandler and Boris Diaw to Toronto. Once again, it appears that the Raptors may be looking to move Calderon, according to sources. “In a recent interview with the Spanish newspaper Marca, Raptors point guard Jose Calderon didn’t deny that he’d &...

The Starting Lineup: Picks, Rolls, And Ping Pong Balls

GMTR Podcast #26: MotherDirker

Erik and Patrick are back to talk about even more NBA injuries, specifically the lack of news surrounding Dwyane Wade’s foot, Dirk Nowitzki shutting it down for the week to “work on his conditioning” and the fact that Eric Gordon is going for additional testing on his sore right knee (cue ominous music). We also talk about what to do with increasingly invisible...

Much in same as the Golden State Warriors have done for the past couple years, the Bobcats are preparing themselves to go small, filling both guard spots with undersized distributors. While I agree that Walker needs...

Bobcats Insider: Terrible third quarters

There's something about the third quarter that becomes the Bobcats' undoing this season. They often emerge from halftime listless and careless and tend to sacrifice leads or amplify deficits. The numerical difference isn't big -- the Bobcats average about 3.4 fewer points in the third than their collective opponents -- but the players say this has been the problem area all season...
