sporting news Bobcats prediction

This is a nice read, they predict 38-40. They seem to understand the situation pretty well too, although they might give May too much credit.

Not a lot of love from Hoopsworld:
Sacramento, Oklahoma City, and Charlotte will battle all season for the league's worst record, but ultimately it will be the Bobcats that win the league's fewest games.

key word "hoopsworld.com" Where he read online posts and then report it as fact.

I don't think they give May too much credit.
May could make a huge difference if he was even able to put up his career numbers over 70 games (10 points and 6 rebounds). Problem with him being the mess that he currently seems to be is it makes our frontcourt that much weaker. The Bobcats lack a player in the post who can be a "scorer" and he has one of the higher basketball IQs on the team.

Unfortunately he read "Derrick Colemans guide to conditioning and All You Can Eat Restaurants; Why they can be one in the same".

If we get the worst record, can we at least get the effing #1 pick for once?

More experts that couldn't name 5 players that play for us....

When somebody who knows their stuff says we suck I will worry....

Oh, and If I don't have time to check all the Realgm.com forums, I just go to hoopsworld, it has a nice review of yesterday's posts.

I'm not going to say someone knows nothing about the team the second they say something bad about us, but Bill Simmons does belong in that category. He's proven to be a dumb jackass when it comes to our team. The only difference between him and the other idiots that talk about us once a season, is that he prefers to show his dumbassedness about us much more frequently.
