The Charlotte Bobcats ride Jason Richardson's superb performance to a 95-83 victory over the Boston Celtics.

A former Warrior and still a fan-favorite among Warrior fans, JRich finished the game with a line of 34 points on 14 of 22 shooting, 9 rebounds, 3 assists, and 2 steals.

Back in Warriors land, CJ Watson was signed to a 10-day contract out of the dleague and should get a few minutes in tonights game against the Blazers. Hopefully, he will do as well as Azubuike last year and provide Baron with a bit of rest.

The Blazers are an up-and-coming team--young, athletic, and impressionable. The coach up there has them believing in themselves and the results are some recent upsets both at home and on the road.

The Blazers seem to be built with the Warriors in mind. On defense, they play a lot of zone defense. On offense, their guards are quick enough to get in the lane and aware enough to kick it out to their three point shooters. Lamarcus Aldridge has really come into his own up in Portland. With his length and athleticism, Aldridge gives the team the same benefits which Biedrins provides for the Warriors.
