Charlotte Bobcats @ New York Knicks 11/5

[ziggy]

The Larry Brown reunion tour part II of XXXVIII

Both teams are 1-2 and someone is going to leave Wednesday night's game at .500, so it may as well be us.
According to Rick Bonnell, Raymond Felton may be out with a sore hamstring so we'll likely have DJ as the starting PG.
May is still ... rotund, so I'm guessing that Jared Dudley will get another start at PF.

I think we're going to be 2-2 after this game, because if there is one organization that LB would like to beat it has to be the Knicks.

What do you think guys?

[bing!]

If Shannon gets some of Raymond's minutes ((assuming he (Ray) sits through the match)) and posts similar numbers as from two nights ago, I say the Cats leave NY with a victory in hand. The only thing I'm worried about is seeing D.J. taking the starting point, so far he doesn't seem as reliable as we'd prefer him to be, but nonetheless, Bobcats win by 6+, leading scorer Jason with 17+ points, oh and Gerald will suffer some minor injury.

.500 here we come.

[Dead_Real]

J-Rich and Mek have to step up their games tonight. I also believe Raymond will tough one out again probably not wise but you can't do anything but love his desire. Bobcats winning a high scoring one in OT is my prediction.

[Dead_Real]

Damn just saw Bonnell's blog about Ray and Mek's injures I swear this team never has any good luck :mad:

I'll be shocked/dissapointed though if DJ doesn't have his breakout game tonight going up against Nate Robinson.

[Wallace15]

If Ray sits out tonight, then Shannon Brown will likely get more PT. Which is a good thing because he's been playing quite well so far this season.

But damn, if Mek has to sit out then we are in BIG trouble.

Also, will Dudley still be starting again tonight?

[bing!]

if Mek has to sit out then we are in BIG trouble
... then enter Alexis Ajinca with a flamboyant performance... I'm just kidding, though the Bobcats still expect Emeka to play, so here's to hoping.

[ammofan]

gosh I hope Ray plays tonight because all DJ does is shoot....
We need mek but afterthe way he played on monday I think we can do with Andre Brown starting.....
Hopefully Adam scores alot tonight. The Knicks have no SF to guard him

[dav7z]

Swish drops 30+ tonight after stinking up Bobcats arena last game. Swish won't have back to back games that bad.
Felton is like a wounded animal . Hes all ways played better hurt . His competivness goes to the next level. I really expect him to start and play great.
We have a advantage at the three, Wallace, Morrison. And should be ok at the center nothing for sure with Mek though.
Dudley can't handle Randolph . And we don't have a player to push him on Defence.
Morrison might get the start and we go small, Wallace playing P/F.
I all so expect to see DJ get used tonight on the defencive side of the ball. With SB showing why he belongs in this league. If Morrison starts look for a lot of Carroll tonight.
If we contend on the boards the Bobcats come out tonight 2 and 2.

[bing!]

^ those are some nasty spelling choices you have there. :biggrin:

... and Jason will blow tonight (just my hunch).

[Marvel]

WOW!!! we really have a chance to beat the Knicks tonight WOW!!!! get your yippe ki yay we're going to beat a crap team swurv on baby!!!! Yeah!!

[dnbman]

WOW!!! we really have a chance to beat the Knicks tonight WOW!!!! get your yippe ki yay we're going to beat a crap team swurv on baby!!!! Yeah!!

Considering the flaws in our team and the difficulty of learning the system, I think the fans have every right to be excited about any win.

That's how you grow: you win what you can and you keep building on that.

[Lewey]

Alright Comporium is screwing me again, any one out there know of a stream to watch the game?

[Dead_Real]

Alright Comporium is screwing me again, any one out there know of a stream to watch the game?
Justin.tv should have one

[BobcatsAllDay]

Looking for some consistency tonight...a win would be nice too. I'm ready for an identity for this team.

[dnbman]

Justin.tv should have one

[Shrimpy_Jackson]

I weep! I weep!

It doesn't look like the game has started, according to Yahoo. Maybe one will start once the game actually begins.

[ohara831]

My Tv Says The Game Is On, But I'm Getting Boxing!

[Dead_Real]

Good start on D & offense

[bing!]

Ungh, it's starting to get ugly for the Cats...

[Dead_Real]

Were making Nate Robinson look like his former Coach

[DanielWheeler]

Dude WTF. Nate Robinson is owning the Bobcats

[BobcatsAllDay]

Can we contain a back-up PG?

[DanielWheeler]

Can we contain a back-up PG?

I guess not. He's better than Duhon anyways

[Dead_Real]

Dude WTF. Nate Robinson is owning the Bobcats

18 points in the 2nd wtf

[DanielWheeler]

This is fucking ridiculous

[bing!]

Mr. Nate - 5 of 5 from beyond the arc, dreadful...

[Dead_Real]

DJ will be on sports center tonight

[ziggy]

somebody clothesline that little dwarf!

[DanielWheeler]

Bobcats 27
Robinson 24

[DanielWheeler]

Crash being Crash

[Shrimpy_Jackson]

Bah! Even the league pass is against me! It freezes up at 98% and won't get me to the games!

[spectre]

Bah! Even the league pass is against me! It freezes up at 98% and won't get me to the games!

I emailed them about that the other night. They said they were aware of that problem and are working diligently to fix it.

Heh. They'll probably block out the Bobcats anyway...FSN has a looooonngg reach.

[BobCatsFanInTx]

The way things look the Bobcats are going to have soembody go off on them every time they play. The perimiter is easy money with the way the Bobcats defend. Get ready for a loong and disapointing season if these things don't improve.

[bing!]

Nate is out, here's the chance for the Cats to catch up...

[Marvel]

it's on sopcast if you have it and if you don't have it it's very easy to install,Nate is killing us notice Nate not the Knicks and MJ is at the game:biggrin:

[Dead_Real]

I wish we could run more on offense like the Knicks are doing we started off like that and were doing fine.

Felton is a warrior

[bing!]

Jason is 3 of 11 FG, plus 2 TOs, I said he'd blow tonight, but I also said the Bobcats would win it, ... and they WILL.

[Marvel]

When will Richardson start realising if his jumpers aren't connecting go with something else gotdammit he doesn't use his athleticism which is a damn shame>:(

[Dead_Real]

See this is what I'm talking about uptempo offense

LOL at them looking horrible now that Nate is on the bench

[docend24]

it's on sopcast if you have it and if you don't have it it's very easy to install,Nate is killing us notice Nate not the Knicks and MJ is at the game:biggrin:
number of the channel , please?

[bing!]

Okay, Jason IS the man, he's the momentum-bringer... I regret what I said earlier.

[Marvel]

ok lead cut to 2 with Nate on he bench lol yeah Wallace forced a TO from Nate haha here we come

[Marvel]

number of the channel , please?

65658;) and a tie game at the half baby

[bing!]

Mr. Adam beats the buzzer again... if only the siren would blare every few seconds or so...

[sjcollin]

When we have Ray and Augustin in the game at the same time, why not let Ray handle the point(assuming Augustin doesn't have someone 5-7 inches taller on him) and let Augustin run the "2 guard" role? He seems to have a better stroke than Ray, and Ray's game is built around driving into the lane anyway. .....probably been discussed before.....

[BobcatsAllDay]

Its open season for DJ on defense. Knicks fans are delerious if they think this team can make a push in the east. I think we can kill these guys in the paint if we're patient enough. D'Antoni is crazy for benching Steph and starting Duhon. Hopefully we can put these guys away in the 2nd half.

[Dead_Real]

I'd rather see DJ/Brown in the backcourt small ball is not good when your not a uptempo squad and already undersized in the frontcourt.

[spectre]

65658;) and a tie game at the half baby

+1 for you.

Guys download this...it didn't take that long at all.

[Dead_Real]

Damn Knicks fans think they'll win 45+ games this year they are serious too.

[im for charlotte]

I have DirecTV and all the channels with the game are blacked out...this is bs...I've only been able to watch 1 game.

I thought we were gonna be able to actually see our team this season...:confused:

[docend24]

[Bobcat4Ever]

[kickazzz2000]

WHY is okafor so FUCKING SOFT?

DUNK DAMNIT

[Mustachio]

adam morrison should take every last second shot.

[BobcatsAllDay]

Oak's killing me w/ the missed chip shots

[dnbman]

+1 for you.

Guys download this...it didn't take that long at all.

Is your video smooth? Mine is very choppy. I got the sound though.

[Dead_Real]

WHY is okafor so FUCKING SOFT?

DUNK DAMNIT

lmao he lacks fire sadly

[Bobcat4Ever]

Hell yeh Oak with hook +1 and makes it!

11 pts and 11 boards

[Bobcat4Ever]

Robinson is a bitch! Wouldn't accept Okafor's help getting him up. Pussy!

[Dead_Real]

Hammer about to check in

[spectre]

Is your video smooth? Mine is very choppy. I got the sound though.

Started out that way but it's very up to speed now. IE is sure bogged down though; I've had a "reply" window up on RGM for 5 minutes now...still can't post.

This is the sharpest feed I've seen so far.

[kickazzz2000]

can we please guard the perimeter?

[Dead_Real]

Soon as Nate returns they make a run

Now they are fouling 3 point shooters

[im for charlotte]

You don't get FSN South/ Carolina?

Dudley is the man

Yea, I do..it's ch. 647...I get all the 'Canes games...but for some reason I've had 3 games blacked out...

[Bobcat4Ever]

End of 3rd

Time to dig down deep and give it all you have in this last quarter. Let's do this!!

[docend24]

is it just me or the sopcast channel is offline now?

[BobcatsAllDay]

Hope J-Rich gets it going in the 4th...Crash too if he wants to join us

[spectre]

is it just me or the sopcast channel is offline now?

Mine's still up.

[Marvel]

Yeah man Okafor needs to ram that shizznit home Dwight Howard,Shaq style fake fake DUNK!!! too soft you gonna get blocked

[Dead_Real]

Yea, I do..it's ch. 647...I get all the 'Canes games...but for some reason I've had 3 games blacked out...
For TWC in the triangle they have it set up were we get Cat games on FSN unless we are playing on the same night as the Canes then it's blocked out completely for us. The entire situation is frustrating and I don't see them fixing it anytime soon with how they act when we are complaining to them.

Welcome to BCP by the way

[Bobcat4Ever]

Where did everyone download Sopcast from?

[Marvel]

is it just me or the sopcast channel is offline now?

Mine's running smoothly,hmmm how should i put this WE NEED A BIGGER 4 DAMMIT :mad:

[Alex]

Why is Emeka not getting the ball every time down the floor? We've been killing them in the post all game.

[im for charlotte]

whats this sopcast?

[Dead_Real]

Felton's offense looking good

[im for charlotte]

does anyone here have DirecTV?

[Alex]

lol as soon as I post that we have like 3 straight buckets underneath and two from Okafor!

DJ FOR 33333333333333333

[sjcollin]

I'm curious to see what Felton's career stats are in MSG, always seems as though he plays good there.

Nevermind, found them:
05-06 16 pts 14 ast
06-07 14.5 pts 15 ast
07-08 19 pts 6.5 ast

[Alex]

We have 6 guys in double figures.

We're shooting 52% from the field.

We're outrebounding them 37-27.

We need to freaking win this game!

[Dead_Real]

16 points, 2 blocks, 12 boards for Mek

[Marvel]

Augustin's having a strong game now inside outside game going on let's get Morrison back in there

[spectre]

do a google search for "sopcast". About 3 links down was the download, but the main site will carry you right to it. I downloaded the one for "windows", and I chose "open". An explorer window came up, inside there were 3 files...double click on the executable. It should fire up a window sort of like the old media player. Post in the numbers marvel posted and there you go.

[Dead_Real]

No answer for Randolph

Both points need to settle down with the bad passes

[Alex]

they're shooting over us like we're not there >:(

[Alex]

Here is the difference in the ball game:

Knicks 12-24 from three
Bobcats 3-6 from three

[spectre]

they're shooting over us like we're not there >:( and not missing.

They should be playing them for the jumpshot and force them to drive.

[Alex]

Our execution so far in the 4th has been pathetic. They're making me go insane over here!

[Dead_Real]

I'd like to see Ammo get in

[BobcatsAllDay]

Did they leave Gerald in Charlotte?

[Marvel]

Our execution so far in the 4th has been pathetic. They're making me go insane over here!


lol i'm losing my frickin mind the execution on offense is SHIT!!!

[Alex]

Gerald Wallace!!!!!!

[BobcatsAllDay]

Right on time Crash

[kickazzz2000]

Did they leave Gerald in Charlotte?
Naw, he just got here...

[Dead_Real]

Big shot GW

[Marvel]

i was just saying 'ok we need a 3 here we need someone to hit a big 3 here' and when i saw Chandler sag off of Wallace i knew Wallace wouldn't pass up that shot and BANG!!! 3333333333333 let's see how we execute in the clutch now

[BobcatsAllDay]

How is that not a foul!!!!!

[Alex]

Damn It Raymond Felton! You And Your Pathetic Driving Ability!

[kickazzz2000]

If that was CP3 they would have called flagrant.

[dnbman]

If that was CP3 they would have called flagrant.

The play on Felton's layup or the foul Felton made?

[docend24]

We nned overtime. Z-Bo 5 PF, fricking midget 4 PF

[Alex]

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!

I can't take this!

[BobcatsAllDay]

they robbed us

[Alex]

We nned overtime. Z-Bo 5 PF, fricking midget 4 PF

Screw OT. We're winning this in regulation.

JRich is due!

[kickazzz2000]

The play on Felton's layup or the foul Felton made?
the layup where he got hammered

[BobcatsAllDay]

The play on Felton's layup or the foul Felton made?

Felton's layup easily

[Dead_Real]

agreed Ray got hacked

Damn that would have been a sick play by DJ

[dnbman]

What happened after the Augustine steal with 9 seconds left?

[BobcatsAllDay]

Screw OT. We're winning this in regulation.

JRich is due!

We need OT!!! Watch they leave Gerald wide open

[Dead_Real]

What happened after the Augustine steal with 9 seconds left?
He was out of bounds

Knicks beat us again

[Alex]

Well, tough loss guys. We had the ball in the hands of the right player at the end but it just didn't go down.

6 game homestand coming up.

[BobcatsAllDay]

DAMN! Tough loss

[Dead_Real]

I sure as hell thought that 3 was going in now we have to face CP3 next

[Marvel]

damn .......bye MJ

[dnbman]

From the box score, it looks like we just lost because of hot NY shooting. We out rebounded them, had less TOs, had more steals, and shot more fgs than they did, hitting at a similar clip. They just took twice as many 3s as us and made almost half of them.

I didn't see the game, so I can't say what was right and wrong. But the starting unit was either even or had a positive +/-. Felton shot really well tonight: 9/16, with no 3 point attempts. Okafor looked great, save the 6 TOs. Again, all this is based on stats, as I didn't see the game.

Looks like we just lost because of hot outside shooting. Even though we hit .500 of our 3 point attempts, the hit too many at a slightly lesser rate.

[BobcatsAllDay]

J-Rich and (until late in the 4th) Gerald did not have an imprint on this game at all. It looks like we are going to be tough to beat at home. Proud of how the guys fought back tonight. Ray & Oak played pretty well tonight.

[M.Peezie]

Well, tough loss guys. We had the ball in the hands of the right player at the end but it just didn't go down.

6 game homestand coming up.

Too bad that homestand is brutal with playoff caliber teams coming in, but hey we are undefeated at home so far. Dang, I really wanted to win this game!

[ohara831]

6 Players In Double Digits. One Of Our Better Games, And We Still Lost To A Team We Thought We Were Better Than At The Start Of The Season. Not A Good Sign. We Need To Win Games We Play This Well, Especially Against Teams We Think We Should Beat. Just A Bad Sign In My Book.

[TheBeagle]

6 Players In Double Digits. One Of Our Better Games, And We Still Lost To A Team We Thought We Were Better Than At The Start Of The Season. Not A Good Sign. We Need To Win Games We Play This Well, Especially Against Teams We Think We Should Beat. Just A Bad Sign In My Book. Like dnb, I didn't see the game since I was working, but juding from the boxscore, i agree, there's NO WAY we should lose a game with the numbers our guys put up. Looks like there were too many turnovers, but then again, every starter had 3 steals just about, so that looked to negate it.

Not sure what to take from this. I'm upset we lost a winable game, but at least it was a road game, so I'm not too pissed. Still, it's just getting old; the inconsistency, the excuses, the losses. If this team has any fight in them, Friday night will be at least a contest, and hopefully a shocking win. Then again, if they get beat by 30, I'll still be a fan; it's just not good because I'm starting to get numb to the losses anymore: I expect them, and they come, and I move on to the next one...:(

[Alex]

Guys we lost because the Knicks just could not be stopped from the 3. You can't win a game very often if you trade 2 point for 3 points.

[ohara831]

1 - 3, and staring down the barrell of 1 - 6.

[ammofan]

y did we not have carroll or morison take that last shot? Rich didn't make a 3 the whole game.....
