Denver Nuggets at Charlotte Bobcats 12/8

[ziggy]

Guys we are going to have our hands full on Tuesday night.

Carmelo is destroying the league with a ridiculous 30.4 points per game. Whoever catches the assignment of having to guard him whether it's Crash or Cap'n Jack is going to have their hand extremely full. Lets just hope they don't wind up on a poster like our good friend Paul Milsap

Guy's, what are our chances Tuesday night? We're going to have to play a lot better than we did against the Nets and the Sixers for damned sure.

[jdub28]

They lost to the Nets so a win against the Nuggets wouldn't be a surprise.

[ohara831]

I feel an a$$ whooping coming, and the Bobcats wont be delivering it, they will be on the receiving end. Of course Denver is playing tonight, so they could be tired on the back end of a back to back. That said, I still think we get whipped.

[Muttley]

I'm convinced that this team (our beloved 'Cats) are capable of absolutely anything.

They can beat the Cavs and lose to the Nets.

Will their head be on straight tomorrow night?
I don't know. I sure hope so. It will be ugly if not.

I will be watching the game either way, and I expect to see good basketball played by at least one of the teams involved.

Go 'Cats!

Thoughts: We can pull out a W if we keep our turnovers down and LB plays the frickin bench.Denver have one of the best benches in the league and this is a good opportunity to play UPS and Hendo against tough competition.........they have to learn sooner or later.The Nuggets have "The Birdman" we have Nazr,they have JR we have Flip,they have Ty Lawson we have DJ........ get the point.I wanna see Ty Lawson tear up Flip and dunk on TC like Will Bynum did a few weeks ago at the Palace.If Felton has another good game which i think he will (i hope so) it could also mean he's turned the corner on mediocrity and taken a sharp right on Brilliance Ave for the rest of the season....but hey it is Felton so he could have a total crapper of a game.I hope we win this one the key is our starters have to set the tone early attack get to the free throw WOOOOPS i mean get their bigs in early foul trouble because we're not going to win this one from the bench (or the free throw line) versus theirs that's for damned sure.Still i think Denver will take this one because they have a 4th quarter guy..............Melo, eh i'm not sure i would love a win

[Woodsy23]

The way they have been playing or should i say destroying teams recently i can see us being on the end of a right hammering tonight! but hey... cmon bobcats? :cool::g:

Ditto. Did you guys catch the Nuggets/Sixers game last night? Scary stuff. Chauncey pretty much coasted until the 4th and then opened up a can of whoopass. Lawson pretty much got past anyone he wanted and Martin played like the typical thug.

Just hope we give 'em a good game.

[Raleigh_Cats_Fan]

Let's hope the second game of the back to back will tire the Nuggets out. I see a Bobcats win tonight!

[Ghost Kat]

Bring back Sean May so he can eat up these Denver Chicken Nuggets!!!!

Kinda pissed, I had an offer to go to this game but I decided to be responsible and stay home and study for an international relations exam. As the game approaches I'm beginning to think I chose wrong :biggrin:

[millst2]

Woot felton with the three,, and JAX now 9 to ZIP

Keep it up, lets kick their asses

[biz]

Great start! :o

[WarioVsMooChicken]

WOAH...woah..> WOOOOAAAHHHH

9-0 =o

[spectre]

Awesome...9 - 0 start!

[ziggy]

Over/Under: 1 minute of playing time for DJ? :g:

[Black]

Great start.....can't let Melo get hot

[ALong13]

wow nice start...up 9-0...lets keep this up!

[Slam]

Over/Under: 1 minute of playing time for DJ? :g:
Based on what I saw last night if DJ steps on the court at the moment and goes up against EITHER Billups or Lawson DJ will get smoked.

[BETCATS]

Let's hope the second game of the back to back will tire the Nuggets out. I see a Bobcats win tonight!
Or at least cutting it close! Great start so far!

[Ghost Kat]

Can we ever get a big man that can catch???

[spectre]

Look at Larry playing the bench!

[ALong13]

well up 29-26 so far, have to continue to play defense as well as score, Derrick Brown comes in and scores 4 right away, that's what i like to see!

[Ghost Kat]

What's wrong with DJ? What got him so scared? He passed up atleast three shots since he was put in.

I have a man crush on Capt. Jack

[Marvel]

Classic............there goes TC till the 3rd:facepalm:

[ALong13]

Am i seeing this right? every time Melo gets the ball he's "fouled"

[ALong13]

Can we take DJ out, he's horrible this year and I'm ready to give up on him...give Acie law a shot

[biz]

Quoted for truth.

[Marvel]

Timeout Timeout

[Marvel]

There goes MR Offense now let's see if we can get a run

[ALong13]

lol what was with the "foul" on Graham?

this is like turnover parade

[Ghost Kat]

Can we take DJ out, he's horrible this year and I'm ready to give up on him...give Acie law a shot

Damn your expectations are high. It's his second year in the league, He's pulling a Adam Morrison. Somehow LB has him scared to shot or mess up. He has to work through it.

[Marvel]

Uh oh here comes Melo.......well at least we cut the lead down to 1 while Melo was out,and whaddya know Flip enters the game we lose the lead

[Talent]

Game is not going that badly.

[Marvel]

Crash has played every minute of the game so far what a machine

[Marvel]

Hallelujah Flip scores 1st bucket since God knows when

[ALong13]

not sure how we got so lucky at the end, but i'll take it...we need a very strong 2nd half if we want to win this!

[biz]

Great ending of the first half, 10-0 run I think?

[spectre]

Good solid d by felton on Billups on that last play!

Our starters and Nazr have played a really good game so far. I like how LB is giving some burn to the bench; they're showing rust but you have to give them burn if you ever expect production.

Up 5 at the half! Course that don't mean squat to those who saw that game last night.

[Marvel]

We're shooting 94% from the line:o and i'm so glad we have Nazr

[WarioVsMooChicken]

This game has worried me a few times but I am pleased so far

[Slam]

Great play by him all game. He's playing in that 3rd and 4th gear rather than red lining in 5th gear all the time.

He's looking totally calm and under control out there.

[spectre]

This is just how it went down last night...Philly held a small lead/flip flopped the lead with Denver til the 4th quarter. Billup then just said "screw it" and then they easily put them away.

Hopefully tonight the ending will be different.

Another playmaker in Jax has really seemed to take some pressure off of the guy. He no longer feels that it's all up to just him and Crash...and that's a very good thing for all of us.

Didn't help that Philly had an out of shape AI guarding him either,but i imagine Felton would do a better job tonight..................hopefully

They went with 3 guards...Billups/Lawson/Smith, and that's match up hell for anyone.

Granted tho AI didn't really help. Pity for them that they had to sit Green who's been having a stellar run...but ya gotta sell those tickets.

......and that's what it was all about,it wasn't about "hey let's win this one tonight to snap our 10 GAME LOSING STREAK" they were more pleased with a sellout than their 10th loss in a row

I went to Chandler's house and inspected his pantry... heres a photo...

[ebrown]

Tyson plays like a lil pus.

[Marvel]

Damn Crash is playing out of his mind............and TC stinks, sucks piece of trash TC $11million to draw fouls FUCK ME GIVE ME BACK OKAFOR

[ebrown]

I dont think Tyson has earned any playing time that he gets. He has no idea what he is doing out there.

[KT#20]

Okafor has 7 points, 6 rebounds, and 3 blocks through 15 minutes tonight. Awesome trade.

[Marvel]

Did i mention i love Nazr:biggrin:

[ALong13]

4th quarter baby, lets finish this! We can do this!

[ALong13]

F*Ck Chandler....

[spectre]

Way to go TC.

Damn.

[ALong13]

Chandler has screwed us out of a lot of points tonight, and DJ had a wide open three, decided not to take it dribble into traffic and miss...UGH

Love how no one touches Melo yet he draws a foul

[ebrown]

so can we start a thread of, Tyson needs to be sent to the d-league

[spectre]

Steve Martin: "Jackson having a good shooting night...he's 7 of 17."

Sweet pass by Jax to Nazr for the slam!

[ALong13]

so can we start a thread of, Tyson needs to be sent to the d-league

Send Tyson down, bring Alexis back up...seriously...Ajinca can't do any worse

[ALong13]

on a roll! Let it continue!

[spectre]

Getting in the paint...going left on Birdman...going right...going right again.

We keep doing that and we can take this game.

[WarioVsMooChicken]

TC has been pretty good the past games. I swear a person has one bad game and everyone acts like they are just a waste.

In other news, Felton has been tearing it up lately

[playoffs...PLAYOFFS?]

very nice...felton having an impressive game

[playoffs...PLAYOFFS?]

i couldnt agree with you more..

by the same rationale diaw should go to the d-league as well

[playoffs...PLAYOFFS?]

Complete b*sh*t foul

[ALong13]

we have to continue to score and defend them...this would be a huge win

[playoffs...PLAYOFFS?]

wallace needs to be an all star this season. leading rebounder in the league..are you kidding me? if he is not..big shame on the voters

[ebrown]

the rationale is that both tyson and boris have been very inconsistent all year. of the two tyson has played pretty terrible. you can not provide any argument to suggest otherwise. nazr is clearly more adept as our center than tyson is.

[ALong13]

Great game guys, I know I'm hard on a few players, but stupid fouls get on my nerves (Chandler foul on open 3) as well as taken stupid stupid shots or passes (see DJ)

But overall this team has been real good as of late minus the Nets game

BTW: Henderson just added salt to the Nugget's wound haha

[spectre]

What a GREAT win!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[millst2]

Hell YEAH

Beat Denver

Gwallace 25/16
JAX 20+
NAZR played great and so do FELTS

[Shrimpy_Jackson]

Badass! BADASS!!! I fucking love Jack!

lets enjoy the win here..but not sure if nazr has the stamina to be a starter..

great win, pretty exciting to hold a good record at home (FINALLY)

[WarioVsMooChicken]

Really... I have no idea what's gotten into Wallace with the rebounding.

[Black]

what a game, go cats!

[WarioVsMooChicken]

Yea, Nazr is better but I remember in one of the games he started, he actually asked to be benched about 7 minutes into the first quarter.

Also, Felton is starting to remind me of Billups. I hope he can keep this up.

[ohara831]

That was fantastic! I did not think we would win this one, but the guys played great!

[amour217]

We need to put together another streak...the last time we saw 500 was sean may's weigh-in

[Marvel]

Yeah baby that's it we are a true playoff team......... i was thinking about this game all night last night and i couldn't help but think how crucial this game was to us because of our next 2 against Dallas and Spurs on the road.This gives our whole team self belief and confidence not just to the starters but to the whole team even Gana and DJ.Crash had to have a blinder tonight and he delivered.Crash has to be considered as one of the top 10 small forwards in the league now and if he ain't than we all know he is

[ziggy]

This looked nothing like the team that lost to the Nets.

Captain Jack, Nazr and Ray played great

...but Crash was simply a

[ALong13]

great win for the cats 9-11, 6-2 in out last 8 games, need to continue that on, 2 hard games this weekend though having to go to SA & Dallas

And I believe Dallas is the only team we've never beaten

[playoffs...PLAYOFFS?]

Really... I have no idea what's gotten into Wallace with the rebounding.

didnt he say he wanted to be the rebound leader in the nba? if rodman did it at 6'6..i think he can

[jiff65]

It was great to be at the Cable Box tonight! Go Cats!!!

Let's hope the second game of the back to back will tire the Nuggets out. I see a Bobcats win tonight!

I love me some me! :biggrin:

[Chef]

he's getting all the rebounds now that mek is gone

[SWedd523]

from the ESPN recap:

Nuggets coach and North Carolina alum George Karl said there is a "harmony or karma" in returning to the state. "The North Carolina fraternity of basketball is the best in sport, in my opinion," he said.


I believe we have found LB's successor after this/next year :g:

[BRNC]

Karl is one of my favorite coaches...we could do a lot worse...hope it happens...

[TheBeagle]

Lots of fun to be had at TWC tonight.......unless you were a Nuggets fan :p

There was this moron kid about 15 or so who was the biggest douchebag in the world going up and down the steps booing the Cats, yelling with this nasally, high pitched squeal for the Nuggets to "get him. get him. don't let him score. stop him. stop him. no. no. miss it. miss it." over and over and over and over. How he made it out of there alive is by the grace of god, but one thing's for sure, his ass left a loser!!!

Otherwise, great defense and offense when it counted. Actually making FTs!!! A phenomenal pass from Jack to Nazr. Another 20+/teen game from GW....50 combined between he and Jack! Raymond continuing his outstanding play over the last 3 weeks. And then there's poor DJ......well, let's just focus on the positives.

An excellent, and much needed win that's puts the Cats at the best record in history after 20 games! For the time being, it's a good time to be a Cats fan.......feels strange and nice to be able to say that.....

[davcbow]

Very good 3rd and 4th quarters last night we slowly pulled away and didnt choke...Great game guys...:cool:
