Who? If this is another MJ decision, it is going to flop. LOL! A sad pathetic team like this could have used someone like Jerry Sloan or Brian Shaw.

The Charlotte Bobcats have hired St. John's assistant Mike Dunlap to be their new head coach, two people familiar with the decision said.
The people spoke on condition of anonymity Monday because an official announcement was still being planned for the next two days.
The Charlotte Observer first reported the news.
The choice comes as a bit of a surprise because Dunlap was not one of the team's three finalists and rejoined the picture late.
He was originally one of the 10 candidates to interview for the job, but the team trimmed the list to former Utah coach Jerry Sloan, Indiana assistant coach Brian Shaw and Los Angeles Lakers assistant coach Quin Snyder last week.
At some point Dunlap re-entered the picture and was offered and accepted the job Monday night.
