Preview: Both Miami and Charlotte come into this game with no wins, and both teams seek to leave this game with their first win. Miami Heat (0-3) still has D-Wade out as Shaq played in game 2, but not in games 1 and 3. The Charlottte Bobcats (0-2) were without Gerald Wallace in game two who was resting a sore right knee, as the Bobcats first round pick Jared Dudley may make his Bobcats debut tonight after sitting out the first two games with a sprained right toe. It’ll be interesting to see how much Charlotte will play their starters as none of them played half the game, with Emeka Okafor only playing 15 minutes of the game. The Charlotte Bobcats have to be shown as the better scorers coming into tonight game, but can their defense hold the Miami Heat, or will the Heat have a spark in the offense and surprise the Cats? We'll find out tonight!

No problem what-so-ever...anyone know if there is anywhere online to watch this game? It doesn't come on TV around here sadly...

[WarioVsMooChicken]

Well, Richardson isn't playing I think.

I missed most of the game, just catching the last quarter on the radio, but looking at the box score, it seems that Watkins (5pts and 8reb) faired better than Hollins certainly (4-3) and even Davidson (6-6), all while seeing significantly less action. For those paying closer attention to the game, was this apparent to you guys? Was he up against Miami's scrubs the whole time?

If this kid could prove valuable to the team, is it possible to shelve May on an injured list and toss Watkins a few pennies on a 1 year deal, or are our only options to either keep May's name on the roster or waive him (in which case I'd obviously want to not waive him)? Would we even want to hire him if we could? My level of knowledge of the business end of the NBA is minimal...

Hello guys; today I flipped out totally expecting to be bored to death going to a dinner party in Greensboro with my family. Well we all go to dinner across from the GSO arena where the Bobcats were playing tonight. After dinner I was handed a envelope with tickets to the game, so we all went to the game. We all had a blast, although I was busy all game explaining why this or that was called and who was who ect. I tell ya what you guys say Adam cant play defence? well he did a damn good job at defence tonight, I kept saying Adam is playing defence , look at him. He was blocking passes, knocking the ball out of peoples hands. He and Carroll both looked good. Wallace looked his regular self although he hit the floor about 3 times which scared me the last time because he got up slow. I was well pleased with the entire team tonight. Who ever does the mascott this season; well the kids and the women loved him and he was funny too. He kept messing with the cheer leaders and the security guys during the breaks that was cracking me up. I had a blast tonight....
