“The Bobcats are about two things – hard work and maximum effort,” Bickerstaff said. “With that in mind, we think that it is best to go in a different direction with Kareem.”

No loss. I never thought he put forth full effort in LA, and he didn't look any more interested in Charlotte. Kid doesn't seem to understand that this is his job, not a weekend hobby.

He must of said something / done something for them to do it now rather in the offseason.

What'd the Lakers ever do to you that you'd wish him on them again?? :laugh:

Yeah, I'm thinking that too. Usually if somebody's just a worthless lump, the team spares him the embarrassment of a late-season release and lets him go during the summer. He had to have said or done something really off the wall for them to cut him with only ten games left this year.

Deep suckification.

Nobody at SG has been any good for the Cats.Knight and Felton play ten times better together than either of them have with the shooting guards on our roster.

Pretty obvious what Bernie should be trying to get done in the offseason.If they could sign someone who could be productive at the two guard they could really improve next year.The frontline isn't ideal,but you certainly can't expect to gain a huge improvement there without throwing money at mediocre FA's

I'd laugh, but I'm not sure if you're kidding.

Not sure whether I'm serious or not. I can't help it--I like the guy.

Go ahead and laugh, though; the day may come when you'll stop laughing...or more likely not. But still, I like him.

Cutting Rush was no loss at all. Zero, Nada, None. He was a waste of a roster spot.
The problem is the timing. 'Supposedly' Bickerstaff was offered Reggie Evans for Rush around the trade deadline, but Bernie rejected it because he thought the Sonics were asking for too much. He should have jumped all over that deal at the deadline and offered to chip in airfare.

Really? I hadn't heard that. Wow. I'm suprised; it'd be unlike Bickerstaff to miss a trick like that. Evans for Kareem would've been an excellent trade for Charlotte--more than Rush is worth and more than the 'Cats should've been able to dream of for him.

Laurie
Maybe he hoped Rush would would change his ways.
