Charlotte Bobcats at Memphis Grizzlies 2/26

[ziggy]

Memphis Grizzlies... Fruitiest. Mascot. EVER.

http://i179.photobucket.com/albums/w301/bobcatsplanet/Grizz3.jpg


We are playing awful, our centers are all injured ( Nazr may return ), we've looked out of sync since the all-star break , the grizz are 18-10 at home, we're awful on the road.

All this means that I'm going to go the exact opposite of common logic and predict a Bobcats win. This team always does the opposite of what is expected, Right?

This team always does the opposite of what is expected, Right?

Not in Utah :facepalm:

But Memphis has been pretty bad since ASW.

[GoBobs]

We need this in the worst way because our next three games are:

Mavs
Celtics
Lakers

[teej]

Mavs
Celtics
Lakers

At least Mavs and LAL are home, and the C's are without The Truth ATM.

[BETCATS]

We need this in the worst way because our next three games are:

Mavs
Celtics
Lakers
Besides the Mavericks, i see us having a good chance at beating either or both LA or Boston. We have done it before.

Hopefully we can get a W tonight. We could really use it (dramatic understatement)

[Walt Cronkite]

Tonight we shall celebrate victoriously.

[BlockParty]

For starters...we OWN the Lakers, the curse the Mavs have had over us is about over, it took Dirk's Magic the last time we played them...and the Celtics are older than the pick and roll.

As for tonight, I predict 3 Bobcats will have double-doubles, points for all, rebounds for GW, blocks for T-Time and assists for.....Diaw

[rsxnova]

Going to need a link tonight

[GoBobs]

Going to need a link tonight

not me, Knoxville is in the Griz broadcasting area even though I am way closer to Charlotte and Atl then Memphis wooot!

Lets do this! GO BOBCATS!!

This is the way to start a game! Taking it into the paint and playing with confidence!

[Scottley Crue]

So far, so good. Let's keep this up for 48 minutes.

[BlockParty]

Ray is starting out hot, 4 points, 2 offensive rebounds, 4 total rebounds, 2 assists and 1 steal....and Theo already has 2 blocks :)

Heh, he had the 4 boards in like the first couple of minutes! A couple fell right to him.

Gasol with 2 fouls! That's very good!

[gforce33]

power dunk!:)

[spectre]

Hah...now the Iranian has 2!

[spectre]

Yikes DJ...starting out a little shaky.

I dunno why he decided to double on the perimeter like that and leave Williams open.

And he passed up an open shot when he turned the ball over, too. Wish he'd try to shoot his way out of his slump when the opportunity to presents itself.

[spectre]

Now that was a smart move by DJ.

TT has come in looking good...again! He's trying damn hard to make me forget about that 1st.

You guys need to stop now...Hulk Jr. is getting ready to kick some Grizzly arse and I don't wanna miss it. ;)

Edit:

Slam...I notice Fats has started to turn on DJ. I expect a major turnaround for the better any day now.

[spectre]

Travel? WTF was that...Young was riding his hip!!!!!

Jeesh, another bad call. Arthur was holding UPS.

Fats has been bashing him for ages now and not even that has worked!!

Things are starting to look very dim for the kid from Texas!

[gforce33]

let's go cats......

[Slam]

Travel? WTF was that...Young was riding his hip!!!!!
The no call on Arthur for hugging UPS from behind was equally as bad.

[Scottley Crue]

Travel? WTF was that...Young was riding his hip!!!!!

Jeesh, another bad call. Arthur was holding UPS.
Crash did travel, but I would suggest that Young runnining into him had between a 100-100% chance (give or take 0) of causing the travel.

[spectre]

Missing the front end of 2 FTs really piss me off...just giving points away.

Boris with some nice D on Gasol then.

[Slam]

Ok, so Young reaches in front of Crash on the fast break and Crash gets called for a travel................then they call that on Theo??

[GoBobs]

DJ is killing us again. He is clearly not looking to shoot and getting killed in pick and roll D. We need to bring Tyrus in early for Diaw and then run Diaw back in at backup PG.

[Slam]

OT: Blatche going freaking nuts AGAIN tonight!!

[spectre]

Dag...Boris is 5 of 5 for 12 points.

Keep feeding the Frenchman!!!!!!!!!

[Walt Cronkite]

OT: Blatche going freaking nuts AGAIN tonight!!

8 tos is pretty nutty

[gforce33]

gw haha :)

[spectre]

I have to think Jamison influenced their thinking on Blatche. Either way that ship has sailed and I like TT.

I actually feel good to be up by 1. We weathered a pretty good push by the Griz and we got back enough to take the lead.

We're gonna win this one.

[Slam]

8 tos is pretty nutty
The 11-19 for 25pts, 10 boards, 6 assists, 3 blocks and 1 steal cushion the blow of the 8 turns overs a little!!

[BlockParty]

Need Toronto and Chicago to lose tonight, both are in close games

[Slam]

The Wiz are actually a lot of fun to watch with Miller, Blatche, McGee and Thornton on the floor.

Pity Foye is a knob.

[Walt Cronkite]

[Maal]

Not really much to it, don't turn the ball over and start tightening up on the D rotations, we win this game.

[WarioVsMooChicken]

Sign Dontell Jefferson. kthx

[spectre]

Oh no...Randolph has killed Theo!

Felton playing pretty well so far this quarter (cept his shot). Boris is still hitting shots.

What stream is better Atdhe or livesports

[spectre]

Griz announcers: "The whistles have been very 'polite' tonight. Not enough...but 'polite'."

No kidding.

[gforce33]

why don't use TT

[Slam]

Oh no...Randolph has killed Theo!
I had a buddy back home who is about 6'4" and around 140lbs. He got reallyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy drunk one night and slept with a chick who was about 5'10" and around 300lbs.

I think it would have looked something like that.

Have you ever heard of a magazine called "Show" Ziggy?

[spectre]

gw only had 10pts

I think he only shot it that one time in the 3rd (according to the Griz announcers anyway). That needs to change.

I haven't heard of it, should I pick it up?

Shaq isn't playing

Bosh is more valuable to Toronto than Shaq is to Cleveland

[spectre]

Uh oh...Zach took his headband off.

Didn't help tho, he's still ugly.

Looks like the refs had a tighter spread?

[Slam]

I haven't heard of it, should I pick it up?

I think you would like it.

A LOT!!

+1 for stating the obvious, a 25 year old vs a 37 year old

[Toocool]

The announcers are pretty funny.
"Grizzlies threw everything at Jackson except the kitchen sink"

Bah bad miss by Jax with the FT, although the turn around for the 3 point play was sweet.

Jax 32 points, tells Scott Lauer he was surprised Memphis didn't foul, and glad they missed the free throws. and then says they have "Good home games that we should win" HAAA...that's the way to come with the confidence JAX!!!

One thing he doesn't lack is confidence, that's for sure.

Good win by the 'Cats. Just calm down, play the right way and things will work themselves out, you know?

I had to call my son over here to see that vid....he goes "WOW!".

Not that easy to impress a 9 year old.

I LOVE wins on a Friday night! It just starts the weekend off so well!

[Slam]

anyone else like the grizzlies announcers?

I did. I thought they have been the best of the opposing announcers so far.

[Slam]

Games like tonight prove why we HAVE to hang onto Jax and trade Crash over the summer.


(is it wrong that I am having so much fun with this?)

[GoBobs]

i wouldn't mind trading both our pgs for Stephen Curry anyone else feel me

In a heartbeat + a pick if need be

Have all the fun you want. After that "I'd be naked by half court" line you're tops with me!

Of course you now owe me a keyboard...

[Slam]

Of course you now owe me a keyboard...

All jokes aside, I was really worried that T2 wouldn't be the right fit for us. I mean, I knew he was athletic as hell and had some real potential, but I really wanted that offensive post playing big.

But if he can keep showing a post game like he has since coming to us (that spin and dunk on the Cavs and the three sweet post moves tonight) as well as that mid range game - and of course the energy, rebounding and shot blocking...............he might just be perfect!

God I hope the bubble doesn't burst!

[BobcatsAllDay]

Did anyone catch the Grizz bench reaction to the dunk? Classic.

If T2 gets another rebound towards the end of the game and does not get the ball to the best FT shooter near him, I need LB to get on his ass. If that happens against say the Lakers you're setting up Kobe cinema. Other than that T2 is looking like someone playing for a long term, if not here somewhere next year.

Looking back on the 4 game road trip.....If we could have got a 1/4 of tonight's Jack vs the Clippers we win that game. Oh well, one win is better than none.

[BRNC]

Well, you know our FO aint afraid to trade a damn pick, that's for sure!

what pick do we have to trade...oh...forgot...2097 first...:biggrin:

[timang]

saw this game on tv (yet again! nba tv international is good, but not enough bobcats games). so glad we got the win :biggrin: also noted that crash didn't have enough plays for him, especially in the second half. what is wrong? :g:

[TheBeagle]

Great win! I was fully prepared for a loss, but the guys fought through it and pulled out what looked like a thriller. Since it wasn't televised, the only info I have to go on is boxscore, NBAtv.com highlights, and this game thread (good play by play, fellas!).

Judging from these things, Jack was intimate again with pressure, and Boris looked like he at least had a daliance tonight with it as well with the 3 late to put 'em up by 4. Don't know how he looked on defense, and yeah, his shot was off again, but Raymond impressed me with his boards, and especially 7:2 assist/TO ratio. Now that's just judging his performance based on boxscore, so he might've sucked in general, but I was very pleased with the assist/TO.

And that Tyrus dunk!!!! :o Let me just echo Slam's most recent post (wish I could've seen the 3 post moves tonight....) and say the kid has been so so good for us at the 4 thus far. Love his enthusiasm and attitude as well....god, forbid the bursting bubble.

Right on about Friday wins, spectre...especially when there's a two day rest before the next game...stress-free enjoyment of a win, who can ask for more?

[spectre]

Beagle that 3 at the end by Jax was just spectacular, and the poise our whole group showed at the end would have made you proud.

Felton had a great game except for his shot...hard to tell from the vid feed but it appeared to be off left/right vs long/short.

Slam...hell, how many times did I tell you LB would never take TT on? It was a good move getting him and I hope we're able to make it work in the future.

Just glad to get that win.
