Charlotte Bobcats at the New Orleans Hornets 12/10

[ziggy]

The last time around (http://www.bobcatsplanet.com/vb/showthread.php?t=7972) we upset the Hornets and got a win. Its going go to take a big effort to get the win tonight without Crash and with the game being on the road.

So... I guess it is possible for a PG to shoot well from the field:rolleyes:

What are our chances tonight?

[playoffs...PLAYOFFS?]

yeah, not feeling good about this one....they will come out seeking revenge...i hope Ammo gets some good minutes for GW again..

if this is retro night, shouldn't we wear the Charlotte Hornets jerseys? how funny would that be

[TheBeagle]

Any way we can just forfeit this one with no GW, JR, JD? If we win this one, I'll change my title to "Raging homo" for the rest of the season;)

[playoffs...PLAYOFFS?]

holy shit...i just found out about this trade..

better than a forfeit..can't we pull a coach K and just take it off the records?

[spectre]

:hysterical:

So our rotation will be:

DJ/Brown
Felton/Hammer
Ammo/...Brown?
May/Ajinca/new guy
Mek/Twiggy

Oh yeah...we're going to kick some ass with this lineup! :cool:

[WarioVsMooChicken]

Tonight's game will atleast be fun to watch =p

[davcbow]

Tonight's game we will feel like a expansion team....:hypo:

Good luck guys....:cool:

Don't we feel that way every night?

[playoffs...PLAYOFFS?]

here comes the big announcement

[playoffs...PLAYOFFS?]

Did you guys catch LB on TV right now?

LB said he's not worried at all about tonight...

Ammo will be starting

[dnbman]

They just talked about the trade on NBA Shoot Around; missed the Bobcats side of the trade. (If they mentioned it!)

I think that was the longest I've ever seen the Bobcats' logo on the ESPN TV screen.

[TheBeagle]

Don't we feel that way every night? LOL! That was too mean....but so damn funny! +1

[playoffs...PLAYOFFS?]

$5 tickets for all the remaining games....

i like the changes that are coming

[dnbman]

I've heard rumors of open try outs on MLK day.

[dnbman]

any video links?

[dnbman]

Radio broadcast just played the player's voices announcing the starting line-up. It sounds like Ammo was handed a phone on the way out to the court to give his name-- noticeably different sound quality than the other guys.

[dnbman]

Wow! Augustin out after three minutes?

Is Brown saving him and just gave him the gratuitous hometown start?

[spectre]

I think it was Felton...he has 2 fouls.

[playoffs...PLAYOFFS?]

couldn't find any links for the TV

[x2pacalypse]

http://albaaa.altervista.org/watch.php?id=202 this is supposed to be the link to our fiasco but idk if its working

[playoffs...PLAYOFFS?]

you're not missing out on much..we look like a D-II team

[dnbman]

I think it was Felton...he has 2 fouls.

No. Before that, Brown put in Carroll for Augustin. Then a minute (or less) later, Felton picked up the second half and Augustin came back in.

Ah ok...LB just started DJ because of it being his home town.

Little late getting to the audio link.

[x2pacalypse]

matt carroll ftw

[spectre]

matt carroll ftw

It's official...Swish was holding Hammer back all this time. :rolleyes:

[playoffs...PLAYOFFS?]

is MJ behind donato's ? it's all over every bobcats broadcast

[Muttley]

It's official...Swish was holding Hammer back all this time. :rolleyes:
Steve Martin was commenting on how great it was that he made that 3pointer. He mentioned that Matt "was 2-for-18 before that shot went in"... So? He's only 3-for-19 now! Still, great to see him hitting shots.

[playoffs...PLAYOFFS?]

haha good point...

i really think he would do well at a team looking for a pure shooter

[dnbman]

haha good point...

i really think he would do well at a team looking for a pure shooter

Carroll or Ammo look like the next logical choice to be shipped out.

[BobcatsAllDay]

haha good point...

i really think he would do well at a team looking for a pure shooter

At least he could try to trick that team into trading for him tonight

[x2pacalypse]

CHA 5:53
Nazr Mohammed missed 2nd of 2 Free Throws
CHA 5:53
Nazr Mohammed missed 1st of 2 Free Throws

THATS WHAT I LIKE TO SEE!

[WarioVsMooChicken]

Just cut Nazr and sign Howard and I'm happy for rest of the season.

[davcbow]

what a game eh? only down by 27......:cool:

[WarioVsMooChicken]

Come Back Time

[x2pacalypse]

our team's gonna fucking blow for at least the next 5 games...ugh

ajinca tearin shit up ITT

[Mustachio]

Ryan Hollins is better than Tyson Chandler. thats just the fuckin truth.


TC is lucky to be playing with CP... but Ryan is a better player.

Alexis Ajinca is gonna be good. adding Diaw only makes him better. I am a happy man today.

[davcbow]

Felton isn't hitting nothing tonight he needs to stop shooting and just worry about feeding the ball to others, Lex has more points than he does.....:cool:

[CMc$]

This is an abomination.

[x2pacalypse]

does anybody think this sean marks character might have aids?

http://www.sportsline.com/nba/players/playerpage/20616

his immune system looks deficient in that picture

[playoffs...PLAYOFFS?]

right now my only interest is AA setting a CAREER high pts in a game...

[playoffs...PLAYOFFS?]

Nazr just showed why he sucks so much...he gets blocked on a dunk and collapses to the ground...what a waste

[spectre]

Did anyone else just lose audio.

I'm wondering why I care.

[x2pacalypse]

i dont even have a way to watch the game...but i could go outside and play on a tipped over basketball goal with about the same results

[dnbman]

Did anyone else just lose audio.

I turned it off right after the start of the second. Other than seeing Ajinca play, I couldn't care less about this game.

[playoffs...PLAYOFFS?]

i wish ammo stepped it up..

[ohara831]

Well, our 2 Rookies are playing fairly well tonight. DJ is doing OK and keeping down the TO's and Ajinca is starting to show why LB wanted him. Something positive to see in this blowout loss.

[bellringer21]

The more I see DJ the more I believe we made the right move by drafting him. I see this trade opening up even more time for DJ with Felton playing the 2 a little more. Yes, I'm glad I drafted DJ late in my fantasy draft....

[x2pacalypse]

i think this is the game DJ won me over for good

[spectre]

i think this is the game DJ won me over for good

IMO Bell is going to make starting DJ possible if he's not lost much as a perimeter defender. Swish & DJ didn't really work.

[dnbman]

i think this is the game DJ won me over for good

Yeah, this is his best game.

Go figure it's in a meaningless blowout with our roster gutted.

[ohara831]

And dont leave out a pretty good showing by Ajinca. His best game yet. Ammo started tonight and blew his chance from what I can tell.

I'm not watching the game, so I'm not really sure how well he's playing. However, this looks like a typical blow out game from any of our forwards that took that many shots.

I was glad to see that he was hitting from range.

[x2pacalypse]

hollins and ajinca proved they should get minutes over mcmay tonight

[davcbow]

Lost by 16 after being down 31, yeah ammo stunk it up tonight Mek didn't do much and Felts didn't do much either... Lexy had his best night and DJ played his heart out... Welcome to the team Bell, Diaw and Singletary can't wait to see you guys play... Looks like May will be riding the bench after the new guys get here, they will need to have a exercise machine next to the bench for May to workout on during the game....:cool:

[ALong13]

Wish I could have seen the game, glad to see Ajinca getting some minutes and producing...I love Ajinca and was on his bandwagon before we drafted him, so I still think he could be a great player in the future...

Not bad though for 4 of the 5 starters scoring less than 10 points and being without Wallace and....our formal teammates of (Dudley & JRich)

[TheBeagle]

Like Lasalle Thompson said right after the game, "the guys were shellshocked" to start the game, and it showed...the starters just looked out of it and lackluster, excepting DJ, who is so much better in year one than poor Raymond in year four.

Good to see Matty looking like he's still serviceable; sad to see Ammo prove he isn't starter material...probably for the rest of his career.

GREAT to see Lexy looking so comfortable out there; it's true, he doesn't need NBDL as long as he's getting the PT because he's a factor out there.....and he's learning each game.

FABULOUS to see DJ have such a career game in his homecoming. He's only turnover was because of a flubbed catch by Ammo, so really he didn't have a true TO to go along with 7 assists and 28 pts. The day AFTER the draft, I knew this was a good pick, and I'll be damned, it's going to turn into a great pick down the line!

So an easier game to watch than the last three...just a relief, and it makes me feel better about the future, which is good cause it won't happen this year.

But wasn't it garbage time most of the second half?

From the box score, it looks like there some shell shock. Augustine, Carroll, and Ajinca were the only guys who seemed to perform well.

Man... I want our roster to get sorted out.

For your second comment, read mine right above you about all non-DJ starters being "shell shocked".

As for your third, according to Larry's cryptic pregame comments, there's a little ways to go before our roster is sorted out.

In due time! It will get sorted out. Gerald will be back as the undisputed scorer for this team. Diaw and Bell will free up Mek to do some nice things. It'll be ok. Larry says wayyy too much in front of the media. He said that Scott took care of his old coach tonight, really helped in a tough situation. Yeah, they've got 3 guys that have been allstars that have played well, Bobcats had Okafor, Augustin, Felton, whoopie, openly cats say we're not worried about it tonight, crazy.

That's what I'm saying: I want it to get sorted out soon! I'm a little paranoid right now.

I guess we'll just wait and see.

I dont know about your statement on Crash. Read my post where I linked the David Aldridge article. He says LB wants to play Okafor at PF and get a true Center here and will use Crash for trade bait. Expects this to be done in the next few days.
