Bobcats @ Suns 26th

[110oldeast]

Steve Nash 7-22 and 6 TOs.

I'll take that.

Wow. That was one fucking amazing game. Holy balls. I love you Stephen Jackson, in every non-homo way possible.

That was a total team effort, with no Tyson, no GW in ot, and we came out on top with some questionable officials.

FUCK YEA MOTHAFUCKAAAAAAAAAA.

Pardon my french, but Boris Diaw just kicked ass, so it's BCP French day.

[rsxnova]

I cant believe we did it.

wow i watched the whole game and the way we started off shooting I just knew we were in for along night, however after the start of the 2nd we started playing, third and fourth quarter we started shooting and S-Jax with a huge three with 19.9 seconds to go to send it to OT, Derrick Brown with some GREAT overtime defense Felton, and Diaw with some huge shots as well...great team game, Nazr was off all night and it was a shame as he could have really put this game out of reach

Charlotte committed four turnovers in the first half, one in the first 23 minutes and three in the final minute. Each of the last three was caused by Dudley, who tipped a pass to a teammate, stole another and drew an offensive foul

O rly?

WOOOO

I was there! And what a game it was!

They really turned on the jets in the second half, and when Jackson hit that three to tie it up, the whole place (except for me ) was SILENT.

Huge win tonight. First in Phoenix, too, I believe.

Real proud of the fellows tonight. They played their butts off. Raymond played stellar defense in the overtime. Nash scored 23 points but took 22 shots and made 7 of them. He also had 6 turnovers. Raymond played with toughness tonight. 7 of 8 from the field with 2 steals, 4 boards, 4 rebounds. Jax made love to pressure and Diaw had one his best games. The free throws Raymond made were huge, because had he missed the lead would have been only 3.

Way to represent the Cats tonight! It was awesome to hear the reaction of the crowd over the television when Jack hit the 3....I can only imagine how cool it was to be there.

A magnificent team win and Massive Balls awards to Jack (for the aforementioned game-tying 3 near the end of regulation) and Flip for the OT dagger to make it a 6 point game, and Boris for clutch FTs, big block on Nash in OT, and an overall spectacular game! Due to it conflicting with the Tarheels game (and since wins are few and far between this year I had to watch them kick some Wolfpack fanny!!!) but I was able to catch all of the last 7 minutes of regulation and all of OT thankfully. I'm still in amazement over the supposed sixth foul on GW....WTF did he do?!?! Nash pulled on his jersey as he was cutting through, right? Wow. That was one of the worst calls I've ever seen considering the implications of it being an All Star's sixth foul, disqualifying him from a tight game.....just wow

But, yeah, it was just a lot of fun to watch the final 12 minutes of the game, see our boys gut it out and get win number four on the road. All in all, a very sweet sweet taste to make up for the bitter drink of the night before.

GO CATS!!!


EDIT: Forgot to mention.....only 12 TOs in 53 minutes!!! Beautiful!

Amazing effort. Cats really needed this win to stop the slide. Back to .500 with a couple very winnable road games coming up next.

“In the fourth quarter, we defended great. We contested shots and defended as well as we could,” said Bobcats Head Coach Larry Brown. “Without Gerald, I thought Derrick (Brown) came in and did a great job defensively. Our whole team was able to close it out – Jack made some big shots and Flip made some big shots, but I thought the defense gave us a chance to win.”

“The fact that Raymond is one of the few guys that can keep Steve from penetrating at will really helped us, because he’s so effective at getting everybody involved,” said Brown. “You’re never going to stop him, but I thought we did as good of a job as we possibly could on him. I’m just proud of my team.”

Always interesting to hear LB's POV.

I agree...the defense in the 4th/OT is what won the game. Even better, we did it with adversity (Crash fouling out)...not to mention fighting the Suns' 6th man in zebra stripes.

Hopefully they've rediscovered their perimeter D.
