If you had any question how well liked young Stephen Curry is in the Queen City, then that was certainly answered tonight. Returning home to Charlotte as a Golden State Warrior, the rookie received a standing ovation in player introductions and was cheered nearly every time he touched the ball. However, Gerald Wallace, DJ Augustin, and Boris Diaw helped the Charlotte Bobcats ruin his trip home, winning 101-90.

I don’t get Boos.  Unless I’m the one booing.  I can only remember booing referees and not them personally but the calls.  I could see booing a guy like Big Baby Davis.  Oh I’m sorry, he wants to be called Glen now.  Basically any Celtic deserves a boo anytime they make one of those plays that they’ve been known for.  Ray Allen in a walkoff, Big Fatty in a walk off.  Not because of the shot but because of the reaction.  The “Ohhh yeah, just as I expected.  I am …

The last time a star Warrior was traded to Charlotte for almost nothing and returned to Oracle Arena in Oakland, he was given a hero’s welcome. This time, the Warrior fans had little love for their former swingman. But in the end, it didn’t matter. Captain Jack came to play, as did his First Mate and the rest of his Crew.

The Bobcats coughed up a 16 point comeback to lose in overtime, 106-95

Raja Bell will have the season-ending wrist surgery he put off while with the Bobcats.
Bell would rather sit out the season than play for the Warriors and it’s hard to blame him as he is going to try to get healthy for a free-agent deal this summer. He’ll be an emergency player for Don Nelson tonight as they’ll only dress eight players, but expect the surgery to happen soon. Anthony Morrow, Steph Curry and Corey Maggette get a nice boost with this news.

Wow… Sucks to be the Warriors.

The Bobcats announced earlier today that they have acquired Swingman Stephen Jackson from the Golden State Warriors.

This was way, WAY more difficult than it should have been. We had all types of things go wrong this game that could have sunk us. We had missed free throws, ill-advised shots, turnovers, and rookie play from a rookie  that doesn’t normally play like a rookie. Despite all of those problems, we somehow managed to survive and get a win which brings our record to 24-35 which is currently 3 games behind the Bucks for the #8 spot in the playoffs. There are 23 games left and hope is …

Bobcats/Warriors Wrap-Up 
Ahh, the joys of being a Bobcats fan.  One night you see the most complete game put together by a Bobcats team ever in a 29 point blowout in Memphis; the next night, at home, we’re treated to a 7 point loss at the hands of the Golden State Warriors.  Something really didn’t seem right last night.  It felt like a total screw-job by the refs but that’s easy to blame.  The fouls were actually pretty even when you look at the …

Today’s Office Tip will serve you well no matter what profession you choose: Never—under any circumstances—allow Smokey Robinson’s “Cruisin’” to be the last song you listen to before you leave the house. It implants itself like that bug did to Arnold in Total Recall and leaves its victims helplessly signing/humming it all day until co-workers become suicidal. Now that I think about it, that song is evil in two ways. Besides having a secret ingredient that makes you crave it, it’s also responsible for one of the more underrated “yuck” …

ESPN’s announcement that “Earl Boykins has joined the growing legion of veteran role players unable to resist the lure of European riches” raises a critically important question: how many people does it take to qualify for a “legion”? Depending on how you slice it, Boykins’ legion totals either 9 (anyone who played in the NBA last year who will play in Europe next year) or 3 (previously exclusive NBA players who will play in Europe next year). No wait—that …

All right, just like Sean May and Adam Morrison, my car’s back to near-functionality, and I’m ready to talk Bobcats basketball! But one thing before I do: you want to know an interesting conversation to overhear? An insurance company rep haggling with an auto-mechanic. This is what happened after I took my broken-in car to the nearest shop for repairs. The insurance company miraculously agreed to pay for the damages, so I put them on the line …

Bobcats Fans are loving the Gerald Wallace and Sean May for Carlos Boozer rumor. Surprisingly Jazz fans fanz are fond of the deal too, although they think we’re idiots for trying to squeeze Ronnie Brewer into the deal.
Clippers fans are hoping to steal Emeka Okafor for a cool $10 million. Speaking of the Clippers, Josh Smith apparently isn’t sold on them, according to Hawks fans.
Laker fans think Ronny Turiaf is gone, they don’t expect the Lakers to match the deal that he just signed with the Warriors. Their fans seem …

Rumors have been flying around that any of the Bobcats (with the exception of Jason Richardson) could potentially be moved before the start of the season. With that being said, if Ray was going to be dealt then one of the biggest needs for this team is a mobile power forward to chase the super athletic Chris Bosh types of the world on the defensive end of the court. I know what some of you are thinking, isn’t that Emeka Okafor? Not exactly, We’ve come to the conclusion that Emeka …
