Everyone deserves a second chance: Dissecting Dante Cunningham

On Tuesday Dante Cunningham was relieved of his marijuana, paraphernalia and pellet gun charges that he was given in a small town (Randor, PA) outside of Philidelphia back in May.

Corey Maggette: A closer look

Just hours before the draft this past June, the Bobcats landed Corey Maggette in a trade with Milwaukee. In the last second deal, Charlotte had received the 7th overall pick from the Bucks (Bismack Biyombo) and Corey Maggette, giving up, in the process, Stephen Jackson, Shaun Livingston and the 19th overall pick.

A Kwame Brown resurgence?

 Although Kwame Brown will always go down in the debate as one of the worst  number one overall picks of all time, he is coming off his most productive season in  the league since the 05-06 season. For Kwame, the bottom line is that in Charlotte he is the starting center and will be a player that [...]

Jackson could return tonight vs Chicago

Stephen Jackson could return from injury tonight as the Bobcats (26-37) will prepare to host the streaking Bulls (44-18). Chicago holds a three game winning streak and has won ten of their last twelve games but is only 1-2 on the season against Charlotte as they will look to even up the season series [...]

Dante Cunningham & D.J. White – What Can Fans Expect?

After all the dust settled and the Bobcats had traded Gerald Wallace and Nazr Mohammed, the team was left with some cash, picks, Dante Cunningham, D.J. White, Mo Peterson (since released), Joel Przybilla, and Sean Marks (described by Ryen Russillo of ESPN’s NBA Today as a “dude with hair”). Although Przybilla has played and [...]
