Where the Bobcats can truly excel this season.

13 steals yesterday, including 5 for MKG

Which is great, but I guess it sort of proves dnbman's point, given that we lost by 30ish.

So I propose the ammendment of being top 10 in defensive FG% and top 10 in turnover differential advantage. More complete stats where blocks and steals will help.......

I'd settle for top 10 in point differential

ironic post considering the defensive calamity that was on display last night

Rookie ex-college coach. Then again no doubt most all teams will shoot like 66% from 3 on us this season (now THAT'S ironic heh)

Dunlap's a smart guy. He'll figure it out.

Point taken. A good defensive FG% would be nice.

How about this?? Top 10 in defensive FG%, and top 10 in turnover differential(averaging less TO's than the other team)......A little more sound??

Love both. I was thinking points adjusted points per possession also, but was hesitant after Dallas's performance last night!

I just like how they tried to get the Mavs to use up their shot clock. It was commented on by Steve Martin during the game. If they improve their transition D I don't see why they can't be top 5.
