I got bored and did a little research of my own tonight regarding the Bobcats season and why I think BK should be relegated to benchwarmer or be traded RIGHT AWAY:
Record with BK playing in between 0 and 19 minutes: 20-23
Record with BK playing in between 20 and 48 minutes: 13-26
Record with Felton playing in between 35 and 48 minutes: 28-27
I think the numbers are clear don't you? About why I split the minutes at the 19 and 20. Well like I put it on the Bobcats forum that I visit:
"The reason why I split it at 19 minutes is because I feel if a player is in there for 19 minutes he doesn't impact the game as much as if he was in there for 20 minutes. I know that sounds silly but think about it. If a player is in there for 20 minutes it likely means that he played a large part in at least two quarters. More oblique numbers like in between 0-19 mean that he was in there for short 5 minute periods to give the starter a rest."
There are some guys on there stubborn enough to disprove those numbers and just say that they are coincidence
. I honestly don't know how they can call themselves fans of the Charlotte Bobcats. Some have talked about trading Felton because he's not performing at the poing. THE MAN HASN'T EVEN HAD ONE SEASON AT THE PG SPOT BY HIMSELF!!! He's been forced to play SG most of the time. When BK went down this season and Felton got to play PG he performed admirably averaging 14.9 points, 8.3 assists and 3.4 rebounds (he was averaging 14.8, 10.1, 3.8 before Bernie decided to trade for McGinnis and started playing Felton as SG again
, his averages went to 14.9 points [he was playing more SG so he was getting more shots] 6.9 assists [almost 4 assists per game decline] and 3.1 rebounds). Our record during this span you ask? 16-21, not stellar but way better than what we do with BK playing.
I am SO F*CKING EXCITED that moron won't be our coach anymore
