Charlotte Bobcats @ L.A. Clippers 2/26

[CaptainCrunch]

Man we looked bad the other day in the fourth quarter but hopefully we can come back and get back to winning on the west coast. we have won 4 out of 5 games and hopefully g-force and EO50 will play tonight. Brand is playing very well and is averaging 20 and 8 but hopefully Oaknasty will play and shut him down.

[CaptainCrunch]

Oh yeah could someone post a player of the game poll? and could you add walter herrmann as one of the choices. thanks.

[Dead_Real]

Any update on Meka or Gerald? I heard Meka was day to day.

[Mustachio]

i was at the game and the fans were getting restless with bernies substitutions and so he had the PA announcer let everyone know that gerald and oak were hurt.

and we had our first instance of bad chemistry from Jeff McInnis.

him and walter kind of got into when in the 4th quarter we actually made a little run at em... then it all went to hell when either walter or jeff messed up a switch for an easy layup. hopefully it wont be a problem.

anyway... on to the next game... clippers. if we come out like we did in the 4 wins we will have a great chance at 5 of 6.... but if we come out flat and oak and crash cant play....were screwed

[123together]

if g-force and okafor play i think we'll win, however if one or both of them do not, we are doomed

[ziggy]

Poll added.

Its time for Ray get out of that funk that hes been in the last 2 games, so I'm going to give my vote to him for who I think will be the player of the game.

[CaptainCrunch]

Thanks, hopefully meka and g-force will play tonight. I think if they do we will win and i think walter will drop 43 tonight

[CaptainCrunch]

oh yeah I was joking about walter scoring 43 he will be lucky to score 5

[dav7z]

Three bad games for Ray in a row its no way . With KNIGHT out again tonight . Felton is going off CARER HIGH 36 PTS 12 ASS . in a loseing effort. Injerys just two much. LOOK for sightings of stick man and Williams.
All so look to see Carol and Walter looking good.
NO May sightings to night either doubt you will even see a Okafor or a Wallace sighting. But you will see some long BOBCAT claws fighting the whole way.

[Fromage]

We're in serious trouble tonight. hate to say it, but we're screwed until Mek and Crash get back. That was more than clear Saturday night.

Sean May hadn't played in so long I'd almost forgot about him

[Mustachio]

whos sean may?

[Fromage]

Observer: Crash likely, Okafor doubtful. So, it could be worse...
and yeah - it would be nice to get Sean back on a night like tonight.

[DaFlameking]

lol they need to find some way to win tonight. they better try cuz todays my bday and i wanna see the bobcats win =D

[ziggy]

Happy Birthday DaFlameKing :funkybanana: :rock: :funkybanana:
Do you have anything big planned??? Alcohol, Strippers... Alcohol AND Strippers???

[dvdbumpus]

Uh oh, no mek or crash.

While we may struggle, we have a good chance of other players stepping up in their absence:

Walter, Matt, Hollins, and hopefully Adam contribute.

Only if he hangs with McMay!!

Happy b'day DFK. Hope the Bobcats steal a win for you.

[Slam]

Tonight it's all up to Felts.

Hammer will get his looks, Ammo will jack up his shots, but tonight starts and ends with the night that Felts has.

[Fromage]

sweet - gametime. nice treat for us bcats fans on the west coast.

ok. some folks gotta step up ... BIG TIME. Hollins, I'm looking in your direction. Ammo, we could use 24+ ... Carroll, let's go... Ray, where ya been lately?

[Dead_Real]

Hopefully we can win this game.

[Slam]

Got to watch Tim Thomas. His style of game gives us trouble

[Slam]

WOW!

Livingston just popped his knee bad. He's in a lot of pain. Poor kid. It looked pretty bad.

[Fromage]

ouch!!!
not sure about the charlotte coverage, but the Clippers broadcast included a few f bombs right there.

[Slam]

I'm going to have freaking nightmares about that knee cap!!

[Fromage]

we squandered some chances at the end of the 1st. Still, we're doing ok.

[Slam]

11-2 fouls in fav of the Clipps.

Plus we've had 6 turn overs.

That makes it hard on us. Need to start moving the ball a little better and creating some open looks.

[Slam]

Felts just air balled a lay up!!

Never seen that before!! He made a nice spin move to get there and then air balled...................A LAY UP!!!

[dvdbumpus]

Eric Williams made his first shot as a Bobcat! Another landmark moment in Charlote Bobcats history.

[Slam]

I'd be happy to never have to see that Livingston knee dislocation again.

They've shown it about 4 times which is about 3 too many.

[Fromage]

we're hurting right now. A testament to Mek's importance.

[Slam]

Anit that the truth!!

[Fromage]

Eric Williams made his first shot as a Bobcat! Another landmark moment in Charlote Bobcats history.


and his 1st 3 pointer!!!

[Slam]

His 3pt shot never looked like going in - and he's not a shot blocker or a rebounder!!

[Fromage]

we're missing layups... our D is spotty ... Not not much offense ...
i'm used to watching these games on tape - i'm gonna need more beer

[Slam]

Without EO50 you're going to need a LOT more beer!!

[Slam]

With his feet set at the top of the key from 3, Felts is money.

[Slam]

My oh my. Felts hits that 3, Hammer hits a 3, Ammo hits a 3, Felts hits a pull up J and we are only down by 3!!

MORE BEER!!

[King Taharqa]

Bobcats still in it. I wanna see Ammo & Felton cut it on.

[Fromage]

we keep sputtering.. need a longer run and a 5 point lead.

[Slam]

Wouldn't mind seeing a different offensive set other than getting the ball to Crash, iso'ing him and everyone getting the hell out of the way!!

[Fromage]

i've never seen a point guard as bad at the fast break as brevin. it's pitiful.

[Slam]

I've never seen him air ball a lay up

[Slam]

we were looking pretty good there for a long while - then BK subbed out and Felts subbed in and we've gone 0-7 from then on.

[dvdbumpus]

wow, that game really hurt. What really sucked is looking at the box score, I seethat the Clipps shot TWENTY TWO more free throws than us, and MADE TWENTY ONE MORE than us.



:banghead:

Can we say, pathetic?


P.S. Does anyone else find it kinda crazy that Matt Carroll "starting in place of Okafor" (http://sports.yahoo.com/nba/recap;_ylt=Ag8HxcCuinQ0ABoZ8xBhFz.8vLYF?gid=200702 2612) outrebounded Elton Brand up until the last 5 minutes of the 4th quarter? Just an oddity to me.

[sc0Nes]

discouraging:
1) no okafor = no wins
2) if okafor doesn't play...i don't think wallace should play. they kept saying he wasn't going to play and he's in there doing his thing like normal. he's tough, but i don't wanna risk a shaun livingston-like injury for wallace that could hurt his future.
3) felton...another off night shooting :/

encouraging:
1) we were in the game til the end, even without okafor.
2) matt and ammo both had good shooting games, adam forgot the toronto game pretty quick (thank goodness)
3) bk returned and PLAYED WELL ... he wasn't even the most alien-like player in the game, that was sam cassell

ok this game hurts the most because you feel like if maggette wasn't getting the d-wade treatment then we probably would have won. seriously, some of the calls...arg, just gotta move on.

[Mustachio]

FRUSTRATING.

gerald is becoming a ball hog who refuses to pass. i know they are giving him ISOs and trying to mismatch him down low, but EVERYTIME he gets the ball down there he tries to force an atheletic shot against 2-3 defenders. and sometimes it looks pretty and other times it just doesnt work. He needs to realize that its not just raymond, matt and adam that need to penetrate and pass out. he could try it too.

[CaptainCrunch]

though loss, no EO50 really hurts so hopefully he will get healthy quickly and hopefully G-Force will get fully healthy as well. This was a tough road loss and hopefully we don't get too down after this loss.

[ziggy]

That Shawn Livingston kneecap dislocation was the most disgusting injury that I've seen on a basketball court in a loooong time.

They just announced that hes out for the season ( no surprise for anybody that saw it ). But, I hope that he can come back next season get back to his current level of play... That was horrific.

Ow. Owowowowowow.

That's all. Wait, no. OW!

[Fromage]

When the game was close in the 4th, we needed 2 things:
Better shots (Crash was eating up too many of them).
More rebounds (Missing Mek is a death sentence for us).

[CaptainCrunch]

yeah man Shaun's injury was nasty

[dav7z]

David Thonpsons is the worst looking knee ive seen hurt playing. But that had to be the second worse. To me me it looked liked he had torn his acl and his mcls in adition to the dislocation. Either way hes seen the best days of his carer . Even if he does come back he want have that speed and jumping ability. Good luck Shaun hope you make it back..
