CHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP) - Adam Morrison and the Charlotte Bobcats stayed hot, even if their "elderly" coach didn't see it. Morrison was one of three Bobcats to score 19 points and Charlotte, minus sick coach Bernie Bickerstaff, beat the Philadelphia 76ers 102-87 on Friday night for their record-tying fourth straight win.
The third-year Bobcats, who won four in a row to end last season, were never threatened despite Bickerstaff leaving the bench late in the first quarter with flu-like symptoms.
"I don't want to hate on coach, but when older people say they feel lightheaded you get a little worried," Morrison said of his 62-year-old boss. "But he said he was fine at halftime, so we weren't too concerned after that. He'll be all right."
