Charlotte Bobcats at Indiana Pacers 3/16

[ziggy]

** The Pacers **




Pretty friggin ugly isn't it? Just about as ugly as the Pacers season.

If we can avoid overlooking these guys and win this game that we are "supposed" to win, then we might be able to get a little separation from the Heat, Bulls and Raptors.

We got this on Tuesday Night, Right?

Is Granger back? Either way it shouldn't matter, as long as we aren't overlooking them (which I believe we aren't) we should win this game.

The bucks only beat them by 4 the other night no telling what kind of team will show up to play for the pacers. They are a dangerous team though, hungry for a win. They are going to come at us hard at home esp if they know we are without wallace.

The Pacers have their dancers,



But they are no match for KAAAYYYTTEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

No sir, no match at all.

[BRNC]

These games (coming off a huge win over a very good team) against "lesser opponents" make me nervous...I've got to hope the guys know they need to stay focused....

[GoBobs]

We need to win this because it doesn't get any easier over the next few games. After this we get the Thunder, Hawks, Heat. All possible playoff contenders.

Starting out on a 4 game in 5 night swing with only tomorrow night's being at home, I figure we'll be damn lucky to go .500 but of course I'd prefer to win every one. Tonight is probably our easiest opponent, and a victory in Indy would give us a franchise record win streak. We're probably not looking to have Crash back til Friday night vs. ATL:

Bobcats ready to set another franchise record in Indiana

The Bobcats will continue to play without Gerald Wallace, who is receiving treatments on his sprained left ankle. His boot has been removed, but he did not participate in practice today. Perhaps a weekend return in Atlanta or Miami sounds like a target for his return.

Hulk JR gets another start:

Tuesday: Bobcats at Pacers, 8 p.m

and once again Bonnell puts up the wrong start time.

Jax still searching for the love from Indy:

Where's the love? Stephen Jackson wishes Pacers fans would remember the good things he did on the court

but LB as is his nature is quick to show it:

"I love guys that care about winning and care about their teammates and love to play," Bobcats coach Larry Brown said. "He's a terrific player. I think he's underrated in every area. He's got a very high IQ."

"He does do silly stuff, but that shows me he still cares," Brown said. "He's different. But as long as guys love to play and care about winning and care about their teammates, I'm OK with that."

Tonight could so easily be a trap game, but hopefully this group isn't overlooking anyone and they'll play it one at the time. If they do that then we'll have that record win streak.

I hate to be a Debbie Downer, but i'm kind of expecting a let down. We came off a very emotional game @ Orlando, our confidence is at an all time high, and Indiana beat us in December in a game where it looks deceiving because it took Charlotte to rally in the 4th to get us within range to tie the game.

We should feel the effect of not having Wallace tonight.

This is exactly my concern as well. LB has to get on these guys before hand and make sure they are all focused, to a man. We will need the same type effort tonight as we had in Orlando.

No Wallace, Hungry and Proud Pacers, Bobcats looking past the Pacers should mean that Katy Will Bar The Door Tonight!!!
