    I don't get it -- as a Cs fan how can they win 19 straigh and follow that up with 2-5?  They need some scoring off the bench - only had 19 last night.  Marbury might be the answer to get house back to shooting and not worrying about running the offense.

Heels in the League (01/06/08)
The 5th Corner — ... the world champs Celtics going down south to play the Bobcats. For the home team it's Raymond Felton getting the nod at the point guard, and playing 47 minutes in all (this game went into OT). The ex speedster from Chapel Hill scored 25 points on 9 for 17 shooting, adding three rebounds to his stats. Felton also had 8 assists, two steals and a block in the game. The one stat that might not be pleasing is the seven turnovers from the point guard. In the end that will be forgiven, as Charlotte (13-22) won this one, beating Boston (29-7) by the final score of 114 to ...
