If the scoreboard didn't tell the story -- and it read Bobcats 119, Magic 108 on Monday night -- then Coach Brian Hill's reaction to a fan yelling at him surely did after one of the Magic's most deflating defeats this season.

 

Hill walked over to confront the patron at Bobcats Arena but was intercepted by Joel Glass, the Magic's vice president of communications.

 

Hill is combustible on the bench but unfailingly civil off it.

 

This was merely his frustration boiling over, mirroring his team's total collapse the past three weeks.

 

 

 

 

Quote:

A day after management threw its support behind Coach Hill -- General Manager Otis Smith said on Sunday that Hill would return next season -- the club looked dispirited and disjointed.

 

Those are sometimes warnings of a team that has quit on its coach.

 

"No way we've given up on coach," point guard Jameer Nelson said. "It's not on him. It's on us. The only thing he can do is write the script. We have to follow it."

 

A day after players targeted the game against the 'Cats as a virtual "must win," they seldom showed any urgency.

 

"The Bobcats looked like the team fighting for the playoffs," a somber Grant Hill said. "We looked like the team that was out of it."

Gross, who wants to wipe Napoleon's @ss?

 

I was hoping someone would "whoop" his @ss.

I would seriously love to know what it was all about. Must have been an Orlando fan that was discontented. That would be a new story.......

If I am not mistaken I heard barnettej say he was at the game. Lets get him to tell us if he saw this or maybe did it?

The script that Napoleon has written all season has sucked repeatedly. Maybe if he changed it every once in a while he would get more applause and less fans cursing at him.

When a movie bombs, who is at fault, the academy award winning actor that was cast to play the part, or the writer and director for composing a crappy screenplay with a crappy plot and crappy special effects?

Hey Smack does your new avator reflect your emotions at the current time? lol

Hill strolled up to a fan sitting in the family section after the game and asked him if he had anything to say to his face.The fan had nothing to say and just looked away, but Hill said more junk to him and then walked away. Hill talked loud enough and visible enough for about ten fans to witness his ire toward the fan. When asked "what's up with that?",the fan said that after the game he had hung over the rail as the team was exiting the floor and yelled at Hill, calling him "a frickin' idiot for not playing one of the best shooters in the NBA." I was more than a bit surprised that he let a fan hook him like that.
