How's Ammo Doing?

Tue, 18 Nov 2008 12:25:25 +1600

After being written off after his knee injury and thoroughly craptastic rookie year, Adam Morrison is playing again. And seems surprisingly ok. What does further inspection reveal?

Bobcats vs. Cavaliers Preview

Thu, 30 Oct 2008 11:19:17 +1700

The Bobcats finally start playing tonight and who greets them to start the 08-09 season? King James himself. Any chance at a win? More than you might think.

Bobcats Preseason 08-09, Defense Reviewed

Tue, 28 Oct 2008 01:30:45 +1700

With some much wrong with the offense, you probably expect me to rip apart the defense of the Bobcats in a comparable manner. Trust me, I would if I needed to. But, if there was a glimmer of hope that came from this preseason, it was because of the Bobcats defense. It was, well, good.

Bobcats Preseason 08-09, Offense Reviewed

Sat, 25 Oct 2008 21:30:08 +1700

Are the Bobcats destined for an historic season? Well, if the preseason is any indication, they just might be the worst offensive team ever. Fortunately, there are reasons for hope and they don't involve MJ coming out of retirement.

Looking Back (and Forward) at Jared Dudley

Fri, 19 Sep 2008 11:53:29 +1700

Reviewing The Dude. His personal numbers weren't that great - but the team was better with him on the floor. Better fit or just better than the alternative?

Looking Back (and Forward) at Matt Carroll

A review/preview of the Bobcats players, beginning with Matt "The Hammer" Carroll. And, no, I don't know how he got that nickname.

Matt Carroll and Galvatron

Fri, 12 Sep 2008 00:35:43 +1700

A rundown of the Bobcats roster - using Transformers. The analogy that got it started: Jason Richardson is to Matt Carroll as Galvatron is to Megatron.

Comparing apples to apples

Mon, 28 Jul 2008 02:19:23 +1700

I bashed Jeff McInnis (well, his play) a fair amount this year. But was he actually better for the Cats than Matt Carroll? What Emeka and Nazr? Trying to find a better way to compare them led to some surprising results.

Are you listening Emeka?

Wed, 2 Jul 2008 04:19:50 +1700

Emeka, please big like Elton and Baron. Money isn't everything (easy to say for someone who will never be offered a multi-million dollar contract).

8 Ways to Become Champs

Fri, 20 Jun 2008 04:49:35 +1700

What do the Celtics, Lakers, Spurs, and others have in common? They are good. The Bobcats are not. Can the Bobcats follow in the footsteps of these other teams to become great? The magic 8-ball says: My sources say no.

Trading For Sheed?

Mon, 16 Jun 2008 16:10:59 +1700

Thanks Chad Ford - Like Joe Dumars really needed help ripping of the Bobcats again. After reviewing your trade proposal, I'm going to have to decline (which probably means the Cats are thinking hard about accepting right now).

Help Wanted - Must Be Tall

Tue, 10 Jun 2008 12:50:16 +1700

Breaking news flash coming in: The Bobcats need big help. Ok, so it is not really a new thought - but it is true in both the literal and figurative senses of the word. Here's a post looking at just how bad most of Charlotte's bigs were last year.

Draft Notes for 6/04/08

Thu, 5 Jun 2008 04:36:41 +1700

There might not be anyone the Bobcats should take at 9? The Bobcats should trade the 9th pick for 'Sheed? The Bobcats worked out who? Yeah, you should read this so the world will make sense again.

Prospect Profile - Brook Lopez

Wed, 4 Jun 2008 14:26:15 +1700

A compilation of links and thoughts on various prospects, today focusing on Brook Lopez, the Stanford center. He's tall and probably more athletic than George Zidek. Yeah, that about sums it up.

The Bobcats MVP of 2007-08

Every team has one - but not all MVP's are created equally. This is one of those cases.

What about Emeka?

Sat, 22 Mar 2008 16:46:57 +1700

Emeka is calm and consistent - robotic in play and demeanor. So why does the team's results around him seem so manic? One month they are world beaters with him on the court - the next, the worst team in basketball with him playing - despite putting up nearly identical numbers. Bobcats Basketball - It's fantastic - if you're masochistic.

And the defense rests

Thu, 20 Mar 2008 14:10:52 +1700

Highs and lows of the Bobcats defense this season - where there have been more lows than highs. The numbers do seem to lend some credence to defense winning championships - the Cats win more win they play great defense than great offense. But why do they play better defense the faster the game is played?

Nazr Has Been A...

Tue, 18 Mar 2008 13:29:52 +1700

Godsend. Then a solid contributor. On to a matador and check-collector. Over the course of 3 months. Looking at the numbers, for him and the team, since the trade went down. Joe Dumars wins again.

The SGs and the Offense of the Charlotte Bobcats

Mon, 14 Jan 2008 17:10:58 +1600

Further proof that less can be more. The offense of the Bobcats performs better with Matt Carroll than Jason Richardson, despite Richardson's better individual stats. What gives? A look at some of the numbers.
