From GOAT to Joke

Michael Jordan is considered the greatest basketball player to ever play the game, but as a talent evaluator or head of basketball operations he has been an ongoing joke.  From drafting Kwame Brown to trading for Tyrus Thomas, Jordan does not get it and it’s time for him to step aside and let someone else who is dedicated to the job take over. This week Jordan decided that Mike...

Dunlap: Bobcats need big men, 3-point shooters

Having discarded the label of NBA's worst team, Michael Jordan's Bobcats are hoping to build off this season's momentum heading into a crucial offseason for the nine-year-old NBA franchise. The Jordan-owned Bobcats tripled their win total from a season ago and finished 21-61, a game ahead of the Orlando Magic. It was a marked improvement over their 7-59 record last season...

Tyrus Thomas Now Exists in Fans’ Cubicle Calendars Only

According to Rick Bonnell, Tyrus Thomas didn’t even join the team on the latest West Coast road trip. I find this stunning, considering that coach Dunlap has shown he’ll still play guys who are willfully insubordinate (Ben Gordon) or who are willfully trying to eat their way onto a future season of The Biggest Loser [...]

Charlotte Bobcats Land Josh McRoberts, Makes Little Noise at NBA Trade Deadline

The Charlotte Bobcats have disappointed, yet again. Not only have they been abysmal for the majority of this 2012-13 NBA season, but they couldn’t even add some extra excitement during the NBA trade deadline this year. Tyrus Thomas is out of the rotation and is widely regarded to be on the outs with the franchise. [...]

Bobcats outplayed in lopsided loss to Bulls

CHARLOTTE, N.C. - It wasn't hard to figure out Friday night why the Charlotte Bobcats have the worst record in the NBA. You didn't even have to look at the scoreboard, the one reading 105-75 in favor of the Chicago Bulls. Forget their league-worst 42 percent field-goal shooting, too. Forget that Charlotte likely didn't start a single player that would have started...

Can Tyrus Thomas Dunk?

Remember when Tyrus Thomas jumped over former Bulls and current Bobcats teammate Ben Gordon in the Slam Dunk Contest?  That was in 2007, almost six years ago to the day.  Tyrus was a 20-year-old rookie then, a slam-dunking pogo stick of a power forward who seemed to enjoy attempting to tear the rim down every time he got the chance. A lot can change in six years, especially in...

Warrick, What He Isn’t Good For: Closing Out Games

I should first say that I’m totally in favor of playing Hakim Warrick over Tyrus Thomas whenever it’s humanly possible, and probably also when it’s possible for cyborgs, androids, mutants, Vulcans, Terminators, Robocops, UniSols, replicants, and robots with human brains. Thomas has been an abject failure for the Bobcats, and Warrick is better than him [...]

Since all NBA players are best friends, Tyrus Thomas and a few members of the Bobcats were in attendance for the festivities. Of course things got ugly. Of course wives were...
