The Bobcats never had much of a chance last night as the Rockets led 86-57 after the first three quarters last night before calling off the dogs.  Derrick Brown led the way for the Bobcats last night with 15 points, 1 rebound and 4 steals in 26 minutes on the floor.  Corey Maggette, Reggie Williams, Gerald Henderson and Byron Mullens each scored 10 points apiece in this game.  The Bobcats are now 6-35 on the year.

Rookie center Bismack Biyombo blocked a dunk attempt at the buzzer by Trevor Ariza to preserve a win for the Bobcats in New Orleans last night.  Gerald Henderson led the way for the Bobcats last night with 15 points, 6 rebounds, 3 assists, 1 steal and 1 blocked shot.  Kemba Walker (14 points, 4 rebounds and 3 assists) and Bismack Biyombo (12 points, 7 rebounds, 1 steal and 4 blocked shots) also pitched inwith rock solid games last night.  The Bobcats are now 6-34 on the year.

32-year old small forward Corey Maggette has been red hot so far in March.  He has played in 6 games (all starts) for the Bobcats so far this year and he is averaging 32.2 minutes, 22.0 points, 5.3 rebounds and 1.2 assists per game.  Overall this year, Maggette has played in 20 games (19 starts) in which he is averaging 29.2 minutes, 16.2 points, 4.8 rebounds and 1.2 assists per game.  He is only shooting 38.6% from the floor and 29.3% from three point range this year, but that hasn’t stopped him from shooting the rock.  The Bobcats hope that Maggette keeps up the good work as they are a very offensively challenged basketball team.

The Bobcats played no D as the Thunder shot 63% from the floor as a team last night!  D.J. Augustin (22 points, 4 rebounds and 7 assists) and Corey Maggette (21 points, 2 rebounds and 3 assists) led the way for the Bobcats in this game.  Byron Mullens (12 points) and D.J. White (10 points) also pitched in for the Bobcats last night.  The Bobcats are now 5-34 on the season.

The Bobcats shot 34.9% from the floor and they were outrebounded 56-43 last night.  But, it wasn’t until the 4th quarter when they outscored 23-15 when they finally fell.  Corey Maggette led the way for the Bobcats with 19 points, 7 rebounds, 2 assists and 2 steals.  Bismack Biyombo also had a good game as he stuffed the stat sheet with 11 points, 11 rebounds, 1 assist, 1 steal and 2 blocked shots.  Eduardo Najera pitched in with 9 points, 5 rebounds, 2 assists and 3 steals in 23 minutes on the floor.  The Bobcats are now 5-33 on the year.

The Bobcats were outrebounded 43-34 last night and it was part of the reason for the loss.  Corey Maggette led the way for the Bobcats with 25 points, 7 rebounds and 1 assist.  Kemba Walker also had a solid game with 19 points, 2 rebounds, 5 assists, 3 steals and 1 blocked shot.  Byron Mullens pitched in with 16 points, 5 rebounds, 2 assists, 1 steal and 5 blocked shots in only 25 minutes on the floor.  The Bobcats are now 5-32 on the season.

The Bobcats outscored the Magic 28-13 in the 4th quarter last night to surge to a very, very impressive home win.   Corey Maggette led the way for the Bobcats last night with 29 points, 7 rebounds and 1 steal.  Gerald Henderson also had a rock solid game with 16 points, 4 rebounds, 2 assists, 3 steals and 1 blocked shot.  Kemba Walker (10 points, 8 assists and 1 steal), Bismack Biyombo (10 points, 15 rebounds, 1 assist and 7 blocked shots) and Byron Mullens (8 points, 13 rebounds and 2 assists) also pitched in for the Bobcats last night.  The Bobcats are now 5-31 on the year after this stunning victory over the Magic.

The Bobcats just couldn’t keep up with Deron Williams of the Nets, as he dropped 57 points on them last night.  Corey Maggette led the way for the Bobcats last night with 24 points, 7 rebounds, 1 assists and 1 steal.  Gerald Henderson (15 points, 5 rebounds, 3 assists and 1 steal) and Kemba Walker (14 points, 1 rebound, 2 assists and 1 blocked shot) also had solid games for the Bobcats.  D.J. Augustin (12 points) and Byron Mullens (12 points) also pitched in for the Bobcats last night.  The Bobcats are an amazingly awful 4-31 on the year.

The Bobcats will be looking to move some players at the trade deadline in a couple of weeks.  24-year old point guard D.J. Augustin is the Bobcats’ best bait if they are really to turn the starting point guard spot over to Kemba Walker.  Augustin has played in 23 games (22 starts) for the Bobcats so far this year and he is averaging 31.6 minutes, 12.4 points, 2.9 rebounds and 6.4 assists per game.  He is only shooting 38.6% from the floor and 33.7% from three point range so far this year.  A lot of teams are looking for point guards, so Augustin is going to be a wanted man at the trade deadline.  29-year old G/F Boris Diaw is another decent trade chip due to his versatility on the court.  He has played in 34 games (27 starts) for the Bobcats so far this year and he is averaging 28.1 minutes, 7.9 points, 5.6 rebounds and 4.3 assists per game.  The Bobcats would also be more than willing to deal Matt Carroll, Corey Maggette, DeSagana Diop, Eduardo Najera and Tyrus Thomas…but I have a feeling that the Bobcats are stuck with them.

With the Bobcats sitting at 4-30 on the season, it just doesn’t make much sense to play their older veterans a lot the rest of the year.  With that in mind, 21-year old point guard Kemba Walker will likely see a small bump in P.T. the rest of the year.  He has played in 34 games (17 starts) for the Bobcats so far this year and he is averaging 28.7 minutes, 12.9 points, 3.8 rebounds, 3.9 assists and 1.1 steals per game.  Walker is only shooting 36.7% from the floor and 33.9% from three point range so far this year.  I think he will need to start taking better shots and quit being such a gunner in the near future.  That will likely come with experience.  19-year old center Bismack Biyombo doesn’t have much of an offensive game, but he’s certainly fun to watch as a rebounder and defensive player.  He has played in 32 games (10 starts) for the Bobcats so far this year and he is averaging 16.5 minutes, 3.8 points, 4.5 rebounds, 0.3 assists and 1.7 blocked shots per game.  He is only shooting 41.8% from the free throw line so far this year, so that’s something he’s going to need to improve, especially with his playing style as he is likely to get to the free throw line a lot in the future.  22-year old shooting guard Cory Higgins has been hoisting a lot of bricks as he is only hitting 33% of his shots from the floor so far this year.  He has played in 24 games (0 starts) for the Bobcats so far this year and he is averaging 11.4 minutes, 4.0 points, 1.0 rebound and 0.9 assists per game.
