The Celtics currently have the 2^nd worse record in the NBA. It seems to me that the Bobcats are trying to throw the season in order to get more ping pong balls. Bobcats management (a.k.a. Michael Jordan) recently stated that coach Bernie Bickerstaff will not be back next year. If that is the case, why not fire him now? I will tell you why. They want a lame duck coach for the last 20 games so the players will completely stop trying and thus increase the chance of passing the Celtics in loses. (The Bobcats currently have 3 less loses then the C’s)
