It was all about attitude. OK, not all attitude: Nazr Mohammed had to be 6-10, with shooting touch and a guaranteed contract far too expensive for the Charlotte Bobcats to just waive him. But when you ask him how he out-survived Emeka Okafor and Tyson Chandler to be the Bobcats' likely starting center, Mohammed talks about not sulking. About remaining focused, not gaining weight and maintaining such good conditioning he'd be ready whenever.
