Bobcats Roll past Lebron

CHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP) -- The Cleveland Cavaliers were the last team the Charlotte Bobcats should have looked to for their first victory of the season. After all, the Cavs had won all seven previous meetings as LeBron James seemingly scored at will whenever he faced them.
That all changed Saturday night, when the Bobcats used stout defense on James to hold him to 16 points in their 92-88 victory over Cleveland. "I guess we killed two birds with one stone -- got our first win of the season and our first win against Cleveland -- and it feels great," forward Emeka Okafor said.

The Cats stopped King James...This team has a future...heck Felton, May, Okafor and Morrison are the makings of a solid core...

On the Morrison watch...the kid got 13 points...though only 4 out of 12 from the field (2/6 from 3P) and missed a couple of free throws..

Cool Re: Bobcats Roll past Lebron

Bob Cat Planet Blog thinks Adam Morrison should be moved into the starting lineup and Brevin Knight should come off the bench.

Quote:
Charlotte Bobcats fans are ready to see their #3 draft pick in the starting lineup for a number of reasons.

1) In his first 2 games, Adam is averaging 17.5 ppg, 46.4 fg% and 40% from three point range

2) Brevin Knight starting at PG forces Raymond Felton to play out of position at SG. Getting Adam into the starting lineup allows Raymond to slide back over to his natural position of PG where he is way more effective

3)The Brevin Knight / Raymond Felton backcourt is too small. 5'10" and 6'2" isn't going to get it done defensively as Mike Miller of the Grizzlies clearly showed last night when he ate our backcout up in the fourth quarter.

Bernie Bickerstaff has an answer for those fans clamoring for Adam Morrison to replace Brevin Knight as a starter:
"Why would they bring Brevin up when Brevin has been our best basketball player, instead of Raymond?" Bickerstaff said, referring to Raymond Felton.

"Here's the bottom line: Morrison hasn't earned it. It's the same way as when Raymond came along last season (starting the second half of the season). Eventually, he earned it."
Fans want Adam Morrison in the starting lineup - BobcatsPlanet - Charlotte Bobcats News, Forums and Blogs

I have Knight in one of my fantasy leagues so I hope he stays in the lineup. Everybody else?
