So genug übers sportliche, da gibts ja nichts positives zu vermelden (jedenfalls nicht nach dem Mavs Spiel).
Im moment scheinen wir aktiv am Kader rumzuplanen. Mit Linton Johnson und Andre Brown haben wir zwei Kaderleichen rausgeworfen, nur um einen Spot wohl bald wieder mit
Dwayne Jones aufzufüllen. Jones wird der klassische 20/10 Mann sein, der uns die Krone in der Eastern Conference bringt. Er kommt von Efes mit ganzen 7 Minuten Euroleague in 2 Spielen, der Mann wird gnadenlos einschlagen.
Angesichts unserer Bank mit Hollins und Ajinca wieder mal ein genialer Schachzug von Higgins und Co.
Ansonsten fantasiert
LB wieder einmal vor sich hin:
"In Detroit they used to call him [McDyess] my second son," Brown said. "The last thing I want to do is pressure him. ... But he would be perfect for this team."
Außerdem hat Higgins wohl mal bei McDyess angerufen. Ich stelle mir das so vor:
Ring, Ring
A.M.: McDyess. Paul is that you? Did you talk to Kevin and R...
R.H.: Mr. McDyess this ist Rod Higgins. We would like you to come on board with us here in Charlotte. The Bobcats are a exciting new Team and a great chance for you, dont you think?
A.M.: The what? Are you trying to fool me? It' s Charlotte HORNETS. I dont know no Bobcat. Paul stop messing with me!
R.H. (slightly confused): Paul? Who are you referring to? This is Rod Higgins, of the Charlotte Bobcats. Mr. McDyess you've played our team a lot in the last few years, dont you remember?
Emeka Okafor? Any bells ringing?
A.M.: Is this the new carribean Pie everybody is talking about lately? Gotta get some of it soon. Anyway, I really dont want to play for the Charlotte Hornets. I think you are fine with David West you know?
R.H.(starting to sweat): Thats the
New Orleans Hornets, they moved a couple of years ago. The Bobcats are the new Force in Town. You know our young exciting players like Raymond Felton?
A.M.: Of course. Everybody loves Raymond.
R.H.: Really?
A.M.: Sure. This guy cracks me up. What about his guest role in "the king of queens"?
R.H.: No i meant Raymond Felton our Point Guard. Or maybe you know Sean May our other Power Forward?
A.M.: Sean May? Raymond
Felton? Ah, now I get it. Sorry, Mr. Wiggins but I dont think I am allowed to play College Basketball anymore. Although I might have enjoyed a short stint with UNC. You have a great programme!
R.H.(desperate): And we have LARRY BROWN as our new headcoach. You remember Larry, dont you?
A.M.: Of course. Larry is my favourite coach. Wait a minute! Larry is coaching the Knicks. Isiah you dumb Idio*, did you really think you could get me to sign a contract with the knicks, by pretending to be a representative of a fictional NBA Team? Charlotte BOBCATS. Yeah right. Nice try Isiah. But I dont have time for this, I am waiting for a call from Paul...
R.H. (screaming into the phone): NO, ROD HIGGINS! GM OF THE BOBCATS!! WAIT
tut-tut-tut
