Here is a transcript of text messages from a conversation from an insider in the Bobcats Locker Room:

BUBBA PERKINS: Hey Bobcats Insider, whats the deal with the locker room controversy? Why is it divided? Whats the issue? Do you know anything about this?

JUMP-OFF JESSICA: Whoaaa how do you know about that?!?!

BP: The streets are talking. Why did Gerald [Wallace, Bobcats All-Star Forward] cryptically mention that the locker room was divided?

JOJ: Wellllll I don't realy know cuz ____ has been gone all week, but.......it has to do wit Flip [Murray, former Bobcats guard who was recently traded]

BP: What about Flip? I'm still pissed they traded him.

JOJ: Me tooooo! He was soooooo funny.... I guess some of the guys were really pissed they dumped him :/

BP: Which players were mad?

JOJ: Gerald, and Stephen. I know I was pissed too cuz he was soooooo hilarious!!!!!!!!!

BP: Why does that make the locker room divided, though? People don't like Thomas?

JOJ: No, i think peeps were just mad that they dumped Flip. I like DJ [Augustin, Bobcats back-up point guard] and all but Flip was da mayynnnn!!!!

BP: What about the ownership changes? Is that affecting the players?

JOJ: What ownership changes????

BP: Uh... are you kidding? You know, how the Bobcats are about to get a new owner, and it might be Jordan?

JOJ: Ohhhhhhhh bahahahahaha!!!!!!!! No, that's not even on da plate!!

BP: So this is just over the Flip decision?

JOJ: Yup remember how Flip did the dunk contest with Gerald??? They were real tight and now some guys pissed he's gone!!!!

BP: Yeah. That's really enough to cause a rift, though? I mean, trades are part of the game...

JOJ: Flip was the best!!!! He would tip me so well when I brought him drinks he was cooooool!!!!!!!!!!!!

BP: That's nice. Anything more on the rift in the locker room?

JOJ: Noooooooo I mean they're playin all sucky too......they need to figure it out!!!!!!!!

BP: That they do. Thanks.

JOJ: Deuces!!! Bahahahaha!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm honestly at a loss for words.

you don't have the right to act like that when you are getting paid MILLIONS to play a sport.

Grow up guys

[Britneck]

Its a conversation with a valet or something. It's hard to take it too serious but those guys do hear a lot. I've always been told if you need something in Vegas to ask the door guy. Very odd to act like this over a player being traded if it is true. How did you even find that?

[holmes49er]

I read it last night after the beat down they got from the Celtics. Didn't really want to believe it, but makes sense.

If true these guys need to get their issues solved. Now is not the time to be pouting because your best friend was traded. It's part of the game, you might be hurt and miss the guy, but suck it up and move on.

They are trying to make a run a the playoffs right now, and this split locker room is hurting their chances.

I don't believe this for one second, but like 49er said it does make sense.

We are going to see a whole new roster next year, IMO.
