Bobcats @ Nets 4-13-09

[teej]

Devin Harris might be sitting this one out, he missed the last one and they seem to be in tank mode with the exception of Vinsanity.

We aren't going to rest anyone and we're not playing the bench heavily from what I can tell...

We have two games left. We just try to win every night - that has not changed, We are out of the playoffs but that does not matter

I'd like to see at least one of the last two be a win to close the year out on a good note. Let's Go Cats!

http://atdhe.net/live-tv-6256.html is scheduled, but with both teams out of contention who knows...

[ziggy]

I agree with you Teej, I'd like to see us finish out strong. 1 out of 2 would be nice, but lets be greedy and get both of the wins.
Damn the ping-pong balls.

LOTS of Asian links here:

most need software...the Guangdong link wasn't so great for me but I'm streaming a TVAnts link and it's doing pretty well.

If you guys run across an English version give a shout.

Lexy and sean inactive tonight :(

[spectre]

This game is going to be hard to comment on...the link is running about 2 minutes behind the radio/boxscore.

[gforce33]

go cats......:(

[teej]

FATASS!!! He's coming in aftet the timeout!

[Ghost Kat]

Lets Go Cats!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Ghost Kat]

I like how the non-starters are playing tonight

[spectre]

Jefferson is looking pretty good so far.

LOL Lopez has 10 rebounds already!

[teej]

LB has a great eye for talent, doesnt he?

Diop just missed a layup...why am I not surprised?

[Ghost Kat]

Still think Martin was a good pick up??

I don't think He'll be back next year

[gforce33]

Wallace......:g::g:

[Ghost Kat]

May tired already???.... shameful

[teej]

Still think Martin was a good pick up??

I don't think He'll be back next year

Yeah, I really do. I don't know if he's the right fit for the system, but he has talent. He's shown it when he's been unleashed. He's just too timid because of LB.

[Ghost Kat]

Vlad hasn't play'd as well as he did when he first got here

[teej]

Vlad hasn't play'd as well as he did when he first got here

He also hasnt played as many minutes...I think he's like Nazzy

more minutes = more production

[spectre]

You never see Felton post up, yet here he is doing it against a guy that has a few inches on him in Harris like it's nothing.

[teej]

Good way to close the half, after the way we played the bench I have to expect to see us play Diaw enough in the 2nd half to win, but rest Felton...solid half, not good but solid

Ham Biscuit commerical!!!!

[BETCATS]

I am late getting here, my only comments are:

1. May looks fatter. I dont trust him anymore. He built up my hope, but seeing how tired he was after 10 minutes.....i should have known. We dont need a project player.

2. Vlad Rad on Brook was hilarious.

[gforce33]

Wallace lol:biggrin:

HAHA yeah I guess playing only a few mins a game here and there gets one in top shape. The bobcats have to many project players ( singletary, AA, the 2 10 day guys.. sure im missing some others)

Vlad lost his motivation, maybe not. maybe we just compare everyones intensity to wallaces.

Next year when we (hopefully) have star power at the shooting guard position that will take pressure off everyone else, Vlad's job will be easier and he will get more lanes and more open shots. I think the Vlad trade was the 2nd best after the Diaw trade.

[gforce33]

wallace vs carter:biggrin:

[ziggy]

I'm a little late to the party... Can someone explain to me how Brook Lopez has 18/13 midway through the 3rd?!?!? WTF!?!?!?

[krazyrumpshaker]

i dont know if anyone else has noticed, but Lopez complains after almost every call. That is one thing i cant stand. Watch him carefully. Kinda glad we didnt get that, he is a very good player though.

Because V is for Vendetta. Someone is mad that they didnt get drafted to a certain team and is making that team regret its decision. Or so it seems. But it is all just a illusion anyway :hypo::hypo::hypo::hypo::hypo::hypo:

Mek is hurt, and we have nothing down low

Will Perdue did that too, and he wasnt even playing.Broadcast booth gangsta:D:D

I dont dislike the Vlad trade one bit, I think it was an awesome trade in which we saw the bobcats finally get the better end of a trade. The we follow that with the Bell/Diaw trade and man we really changed the dynamic of the team.

I would love to see us unload nazr and diop as well as the 2 10 day guys and bring in some quality backups,, and I wouldnt rule out the possibility of trading mek.. be nice to trade Mek for Thabeet and another SG pick. Dount we would be in any worse condition.

[gforce33]

wallace for mvp:biggrin:

[davcbow]

Hello gang I made it to the audio portion of the game.... At least we are winning 66-64

That would be beyond nice

[davcbow]

Sounds like we are getting some calls tonight...:cool:

[davcbow]

Good quarter, 72-67... Lets go cats!!!!

[teej]

Great thrid quarter, even with brook killing us

Gerald finally showing some life, and Ray is kicking ass and taking names

[BETCATS]

Sean May ftw :D:D:D:D:D:D

[davcbow]

Sean May playing tonight 3/3 6pts except the 3 fouls and 3 TO's and only has 1 RB in 11 mins

[superb1]

Yeah, Brook surprised me with 9-10 rebs in the first quarter. I think that he want to show us up and prove us wrong.

[Ampsportsduo]

With this group playing, I feel like I should get to have a sub fan come in for me. Ziggy could rest me and put ballwhore in to comment.

We're playing a little better than that...maybe toot daddy

[ArcandiaS]

I don't understand why the starters don't come back now... Don't want to win the game??

[davcbow]

I guess he is trying to make Sean May pass out from exhaustion....:p

[teej]

I don't understand why the starters don't come back now... Don't want to win the game??

LB wants the young guys to get some real game on the line experience? I dont know...I'd play Boris and Raymond at least.

[krazyrumpshaker]

I don't understand why the starters don't come back now... Don't want to win the game??

Looks like LB is just going to stick with the 2nd unit and see what they are made of.

[teej]

I think its over, I hate Jarvis Hayes...

Dontell didn't need to take that 3 though. And why is he even in the game? LB, play to win...

[Ampsportsduo]

Seeing the young guys play against NBA talent is more important than the W at this point.

yoyoyoyoyoyo.......we need liek wunna dem fiddy point buckets like dat ol' skoo Rock n Jock, naaaa'mean?

[gforce33]

we lost again:)

[ArcandiaS]

Ok but it'll make the Cats lose the game... I agree when he wants to see the young players in the game but when the Nets were coming back (after +12 for Bobcats) I just don't understand why Ray, GW and Boris were kept on the bench.
It's very fustrating, he just didn't want to win this fucking game while it was won if the starters finished it.

[Marvel]

The Nets went all out in this

Ok, you're surely right but it's very frustrating to have lost this one.

[ohara831]

Another blown 4th qtr lead. Ouch.

[millst2]

I know May isnt in the best game shape,, but was it only me or was Diop making everyone on the team look like Speedy Gonzalez?

He goes from one end of the floor to the other like a damn Sloth, hence we dub thee Diop d'Sloth

I agree, it is frustrating from the standpoint that we want them to win, but we also want to develop our younger players. Winning the game with our starters doesnt do anything for us except add to the season win total, but getting those players some game time, and in a close game, really helps their development. I for one am disappointed that AA wasnt playing tonight.

When May and Diop are on the court together, we can call they Diop & D'Slop

[krazyrumpshaker]

I must say, Jefferson and May both played pretty well off the bench tonight.

[millst2]

Ummmm O K

...

[TOOT DADDY]

We're playing a little better than that...maybe toot daddy
I would love to come in and bring a winning spirit to the table versus the sat quo love of mediocrity that exist with most of you. How many more games have we won than last year? Keep giving your E's for effort. Trade D.J. Augustin please!

We're out of the playoff race, so we aren't trying to win games at this point, but to assess the talent we have at the end of the bench. If we were still alive, we would have won this game.
