CHARLOTTE, N. Nike Air Huarache Womens Uk .C. -- Six-time NBA champion Michael Jordan continues to struggle as a league executive. The Jordan-owned Bobcats are 3-26 and flirting with NBA futility. Because of the lockout-shortened season Charlotte wont challenge the 1972-73 Philadelphia 76ers record of 72 losses. However, the Bobcats have lost 16 straight games and have a worse winning percentage (.103) than that infamous 76ers team. "Everybody wants to make history but you dont want to make history that way," said Bobcats guard Matt Carroll, currently in his second stint with Charlotte. "You dont want to be that team." Jordan isnt talking as the losses continue to mount. He declined an interview request through the Bobcats media relations department. Jordan isnt the only NBA executive having a tough time. There are only nine wins between he and Commissioner David Stern -- the league-owned New Orleans Hornets have just six victories. The Hornets and Bobcats are two of six teams that have failed to reach double digits in wins in a league that, despite efforts to push toward parity during the recent labour negotiations, seems to have a broadening gap between haves and have-nots. But none seem as low as the Bobcats. "Theyve totally bottomed out," said Steve Kerr, an NBA analyst for TNT and a former Jordan teammate. "They are a total disaster right now. They are going to have to get lucky in the lottery and be really strong as an organization in the next couple of years to get out of this." Bobcats president of basketball operations Rod Higgins previously said the key is to be patient with the building process and avoid kneejerk reactions. The Bobcats expect to be more than $20 million under the salary cap next year so they should be active in free agency. Theyll also likely get a top pick this year, although not necessarily the No. 1 overall because of the NBAs lottery system. "Its up to us to go out and get that player, or those players, to help turn this team around," Higgins said recently. But the biggest question is whether or not they can do it as Jordans track record hasnt been very good. Since being named minority owner of the Bobcats in 2006 and being given full control over the basketball operations, Jordan has selected eight players in the first round, but only four remain with the team. Three are no longer in the league. Arguably the biggest draft day blunder was selecting Gonzagas Adam Morrison with the third overall pick in 2006 when they could have had Rudy Gay. Drafting Alexis Ajinca 20th overall in 2008 was another flop, especially after giving up a first-round pick to Denver to get him. The Ajinca trade is just one of 17 in the Jordan era, more than any team in the league over the last six years. Those dealt include Emeka Okafor, Tyson Chandler, Stephen Jackson and All-Star Gerald Wallace. Whos left includes Carroll (who was actually traded in 2009 and then reacquired a year later), Corey Maggette, journeyman Eduardo Najera and forward Tyrus Thomas -- who received a five-year, $40 million contract and isnt even starting anymore. The Bobcats still owe Chicago a protected first-round draft pick as part of the Thomas trade. Bad deals arent the only thing that have hurt the Bobcats, however, injuries have also played a role in their demise. Charlottes three leading scorers -- Maggette, D.J. Augustin and Gerald Henderson -- have missed a combined 38 games due to injuries. Coach Paul Silas refused to call this a bad team and has repeatedly said that if all three had been healthy throughout the season the Bobcats wouldnt be the leagues doormat. "I think if you take the three leading scorers off any team thats going to make a huge difference," Silas said. "I think if we had them we would be very competitive." But they dont have them and of late the Bobcats havent been very competitive. They have lost their last eight games by an average of 22.5 points. Theyve been outscored by 14.4 points per game for the season, by far the most in the NBA this season. That puts them on pace for the second-worst margin of defeat since the NBA-ABA merger. "Some nights its embarrassing, especially when we lose by a lot," said rookie Kemba Walker. "No one likes to lose by that many points." Former Bobcat Steve Smith, now an NBA TV analyst, said Charlotte is has to rebuild from scratch. "It comes down to (this): Do they draft the best talent? And right now the Charlotte Bobcats are a team that is looking to rebuild," he said. They basically have no choice. Still, Carroll wont say theyre a bad team. "We still have talent on this team and can still win games but I think it will take more guys to get healthy," Carroll said. "As the season goes along were going to get better." In the meantime, the mildly superstitious Carroll is trying everything he can to help end the losing streak which began Jan. 16. "I switched shoes a couple of times. Ive worn two socks on each foot," he said. "Ive worn socks two days in a row, which Ive never done before... but nothing has worked. Ill keep trying. "Something has to work eventually -- and hopefully soon." Nike Air Zoom Pegasus 31 Buy ...for being Darryl Sutter. Reporters who asked if he was concerned about his Los Angeles Kings bad start in Detroit on Friday (they fell behind 4-0 in the first period) were probably expecting an obvious answer when they should have been expecting a Darryl Sutter answer. Mens Nike Air Zoom Vomero 2 . However, the Whitecaps were unable to live up to the pre-match hype, and remain winless on the road in their inaugural MLS season. The rivalry between the two teams dates back to 1975 in the days of the NASL, and more recently has been played out at the second division level of North American soccer.DUBLIN, Ireland -- Brian ODriscoll will leave behind Ronan OGara and become Irelands most capped rugby player when he runs out against Scotland at Lansdowne Road in the Six Nations on Sunday. ODriscoll was picked for his 129th test in an Ireland jersey on Friday, but he wont continue his world record midfield partnership with Gordon DArcy. DArcy was laid low by a stomach bug at the start of the week and has recovered, but Luke Marshall edged him in training and will start. The only other question marks were the wingerrs, and with plenty of choices coach Joe Schmidt went with Andrew Trimble over Fergus McFadden for his first cap since last summer, and Dave Kearney for his first Six Nations start, alongside his brother Rob, the fullback.

As expected, Chris Henry has the No. 7 jersey with Sean OBrien out for four months after shoulder surgery, and scrumhalf Conor Murray starts in place of Eoin Reddan, who was ruled out with calf trouble. wholesale jerseys cheap jerseys cheap nfl jerseys wholesale jerseys cheap soccer jerseys wholesale jerseys wholesale jerseys cheap nfl jerseys china ' ' '
