An MRI taken Thursday confirmed that Bobcats guard/forward Gerald Henderson suffered a right hamstring strain during the third quarter of Wednesday night’s game at Portland. Henderson is expected to miss 2-4 weeks.

what a season

it was probably nothing serious but MJ and friends saw that Toronto and Detroit are catching up on our record so he announced "we need to tank harder guise. lettuce lock out our best player. lulz."

I'm starting to get worried that the Bobcats will go down in history as the worst of all-time.

Oh well... it would be kinda cool to be able to claim WOAT status.

Sucks. In a terrible year like this it would at least be nice to have a guy like Hendo play the entire season and prove he can be a consistent scorer.

Hopefully Williams will get the start over Matt Carroll.....either way we are going to be even more awful then we have been, and that's hard to do.

we can count ourselves lucky if we manage to score 50 points per game

Williams is meant to be limited to about 10 minutes a game at the moment. I can't see him starting

At this point in the season, nothing else needs to be said.

Our three best scorers are out. That's just great....

What I can't wait to see is that one W against a playoffs team which makes absolutely no sense. We all know that there is going to be one sooner or later. How about Boston on the road next week? That would be cool. Higgins outplaying Ray Allen.

Hendo gets hurt a lot.

As much as I like Hendo, I still see him best utilized as a key bench player. I know MJ is working with him, but his progress is still in zigs and zags. Hard to argue that he's not our best player right now.

At this point that is going to be hard to prevent. I said to begin the season that we would be around 10 games. I was hoping I was wrong and we would see the numbers you guys posted. Now I question if we will even see 10.

Hendo may have been shut down a couple weeks to prevent his frustration at loosing so much from hurting his pysche long term.

looks like he should be back just after the all-star break at the end of feb. there is a big 6 day break for us around that weekend which is good. we also have a big break in games now, 2 days, suns, 2 days, celtics, 2 days, bulls. this is the best part of the schedule to have him miss games.

Yea... the well above average defense coupled with even an average offense makes him starter quality, and he's not a bad scorer anyway.
