You aren't planning to get into a bidding war with me, are you?

Rumor has it that it was Tay who bid on it, a fellow Kentuckian alumni.

Nazmo actually has two NCAA titles from when he was at Kentucky.

Quote:

The son of an immigrant from Ghana, Mohammed was raised in Chicago and attended high school at Kenwood Academy. Mohammed entered the University of Kentucky in the fall of 1995 at a hefty 315 pounds, and saw little playing time during their NCAA Championship season.

After slimming down for his sophomore year, Mohammed shared the starting center spot with Jamaal Magloire and was a key contributor in 1997, when the Cats were runners-up to Arizona.

Mohammed would once again share the starting post position with Magloire in 1998, and once again they would bring the NCAA Championship home to Kentucky for the second time in three years.

I think Lee might make it into a Voodoo doll.

Bobcats not giving Vincent effort

I wonder if management understands how dysfunctional the Bobcats are right now. I asked some friends – an advance scout from an opposing team and a veteran beat-writer – for impressions after Charlotte’s 26-point loss to Detroit, and their words were virtually identical:

This team is going through the motions, and likely will the rest of the season.

It’s one thing when you’re overmatched, it’s quite another when you appear not to be trying. Many of you used to rip Bernie Bickerstaff for his rotation or some subtle technical flaw. But Bickerstaff succeeded where I suspect Sam Vincent never will:

He persuaded a team with a severe talent deficit to play remarkably hard.

They never under-achieved with Bernie in charge. They seldom acted like losing by 26 was OK. Now that’s become the norm. And curiously, they admit how dysfunctional they are. Raymond Felton apologized, in a sincere, repenting manner, after they went through the motions Friday against the Nets. He was as guilty as anyone, but that didn’t make him feel any better.

Bcats thumped the Hawks tonite in overtime. Nazz 10 and 8 in 19 minutes. This was the thumping I wanted. Both Hawks and Bobs are young and athletic as the Hawks showed last nite.
