Independance Day Quick Hits

If you aren't by a pool, ocean, lake or similar body of water (a bog perhaps or swamp?) you can read and react to the following:

Raymond Felton is working out with high school kids: http://southcarolina.scout.com/a.z?s...%2f876933.html
(Subscription deal) Lead, teach, learn, try and beat 18 year old kids from opposing 3 point line to the rim, sounds fun.

I don't know what MLE means exactly but I think any team able to offer $10 more to Rasheed Wallace (who I saw at Durham Regional Hospital a month ago, random) will get him: http://www.mysanantonio.com/sports/spurs/49898632.html
But come on down to Charlotte next week any way and get some free food, won't ya Sheed?

Where do guys get these ideas: Charlotte » A return to North Carolina might hold appeal for Boozer as a Duke product, as well as the prospect of playing alongside Emeka Okafor. The Bobcats' top players, however, are all locked into long-term contracts, including Gerald Wallace.

A handful of articles related to one Brandon Bass. The Charlotte Bobcats contacted his agent, Tony Dutt, on Thursday joining the Orlando Magic, San Antonio Spurs, Dallas Mavericks and the Hornets who have inquired about Bass, a backup power forward.

Ahh, free agency! Don't you love it! Catch the excitement!

I need to do a bit more research on this guy but all I can find so far is he was President/CEO of the Rockets and special assistant to the commish, whatever that means: http://www.newsobserver.com/sports/story/1586600.html

I just like the 2 stories at the bottom of this thing from Asheville (I think they like the Bobcats a lot up there): http://citizen-times.com/apps/pbcs.d...007/COLUMNISTS
