Charlotte Bobcats at Philadelphia 76ers

[ziggy]

Outside of Andre Iguodala, the Sixers have nothing. Zilch. If we're going to reach the 32-35 win mark this season then these are the kind of games that we absolutely cannot allow ourselves to lose.

76ers Bobcats
G A. Miller R. Felton
G A. Iguodala D. Anderson
F R. Carney M. Carroll
F S. Hunter G. Wallace
C S. Dalembert E. Okafor

I foresee Emeka abusing Samuel Dalembert tonight. Dalembert simply doesn't have the game to deal with Mek. My prediction, Bobcats by 15 and player of the game Emeka

A game we SHOULD win hopefully we can pull it out and finish strong before the break.

Player of the game: I have a feeling The Hammer will have a big game tonight.

I agree with both of you guys . This is the kinda of game we have to win. We need to watch the back court in this game with two good match ups. Felton and A. Miller could be a dog fight.
Anderson needs to stop Igoodaia.
My player of the game is CRASH i think hes going off on Hunter.
Bobcats by 15 or at least shuld be.

[dvdbumpus]

Yes, we NEED to win this game, and others like it.

I say Crash has the big night - he's just too quick and he's had rest. Oak should also do very well.

[DaFlameking]

im sure we can win this game and blockafor will be the man of the match. we took phily before and we can do it again

[Dead_Real]

We are playing terrible down 13 we can get back into this.

We could if we could make some shots, but the backcourt is cold tonight.

Iguodala just had a nasty dunk by the way :-\

Whats up with Bernie giving up on the game with 3mins left in the 3rd quarter. I mean dam dont play Okafor or Wallace any of the 4th . They didnt have that big of lead even with six mins left. Hell we cut the lead to 6pts with 2mins left with mostly back ups. BERNIE had no intenison of winning that game.
Hell as long as Bernie is head coach we not going to the play offs.
Our guard play wasnt that good either but dam Bernie give us a chance.

[CaptainCrunch]

For as bad as we played the final score wasnt so bad. It was pretty funny to see Stephaine Ready talking to Sean May and Brevin Knight about their injuries and Brevin running off while she was talking to may.

That sort of stuff just kills a team and their morale.

Good point. It was still the 3rd quarter and bernie was acting like the game was out of reach.

Glad I watched the Carolina vs duke game then. From the sounds of it I'd really of had a stress filled evening watching us lose to philly.

It would have turned your stomach.

[dav7z]

Yes the players played bad. But in over 39 years of watching NBA games . I have never seen a coach do as bad as Bernie did last night. Its kinda like im getting sick of him doing stupid things.

[Mustachio]

thats what kills me about bernie... he gives up

i know we are young, inexperienced and lack a couple positions... but damn man i hate to see someone give up. especially when we know for a fact we could beat a team. its just a losing culture im starting to see from bernies time here. its like its ok to lose because its only our third year. thats bull shit.... we should go out every night trying to win and never giving up unless its a 20 point blow out under 6 minutes.... then its ok to rest the stars.

frustrating...

[dav7z]

GREAT POST Mustachio [THUMBS UP ] Idont know what to say im just frustrated .

[sc0Nes]

looked more like the team from october-november than the team from january...just ugly basketball last night.

agreed that bickerstaff gave up too easily. no reason to mail it in like he did. i think this reflects onto the players attitudes in other games too, like if they're down by 10 in the 4th quarter they will start to think "well another one down the drain...guess i don't have to play as hard." bernie is breeding a losing mentality...not cool.
