Bell out versus Bucks tonight
Based on Charlotte Bobcats shootaround this morning, Raja Bell won't play tonight against the Milwaukee Bucks and Tyson Chandler likely will.
Bell sprained his left wrist, chasing after a loose ball versus the Utah Jazz Sunday night in Los Angeles. He hurt himself pretty badly -- I wouldn't have been surprised had this been a fracture -- but X-rays were negative.
Chandler is recovering from off-season ankle and toe surgery. This would be his first appearance as a Bobcat if he plays tonight.

So does Henderson get the start? I'd like to see him get starter minutes at some point this preseason. Any word on the projected starting lineup?

Newsintz:
This is just a guess, but I bet they start Stevie Graham. Henderson sat out the Utah game with that sore shoulder, so I'd think they'll be cautious with how much they use him tonight.

Trade Raja Bell and something else for Stephen Jackson.

The Bobcats are keeping themselves away from the fans by keeping the team on cable, idiotic. Many people are trimming cable as one of their nonessential expenses. The Hornets built their fans by playing on regular TV (WJZY46). We could follow our Hornets everywhere pretty much. No matter if you chose to have cable or not. Time Warner doesn't even share programming with Direct TV so you could be paying for TV and still not see the Bobcats. This is STUPID. The cats need to take their collective heads out of their a@#.

We shouldn't always be asking "Is the game on TV?". What, I'm gonna get Time Warner just to see the Bobcats for who knows what a month and you think I'm gonna pony up for tickets too. You've got your market all wrong. Why should we pay twice? What if I don't like Time Warner. Real smart Bob!

I have directv and I see the bobcats games. And I don't have a NBA package.

I can't even see the games when the TV Guide says I will. Talk about frustrating. It seems there are two different FSNs.

Just to let everyone know a couple seasons ago the Bobcats signed an agreement with Fox Sports net, so if you satellite or cable you should be able to seem them during the regular season. Also keep in mind there are two Fox Sports Net channels Fox Sports Carolinas (40 TWC) and Sportsouth (60 TWC) those channel listings are for timewarner cable only you'll have to check your satellite package to see if they apply or you need to upgrade but they are available

Not sure why they wouldn't start Augustin and Felton instead of Graham. I know it's preseason, but learn from the Panthers, if you aren't 'shooting on all cylinders' during preseason, the change of a date on the calendar isn't going to fix things.
Bring Graham off the bench and Henderson into the rotation in the last 1st quarter. I know Larry's fear is, he wants Felton or Augustin on the court at all times...which can still be done if they both start...just stagger the subsitutions.
