Alright guys lets get this game out of our mind and concentrate on the Pacers game on friday. go bobcats.

[dvdbumpus]

Ugh, the pacers. I hate what Granger did to Crash last year. Our team should dominate. J-rich should have a field day, as should Felton.


Any news on Felton, btw?

[Alex]

they have a whole day to prepare for this game. If we lose oh well, but if we lose in the same fashion that we have lost these past two games then something is horribly wrong here.

[TheBeagle]

Not going to the game. Game not televised. A needed break from the guys after their uninspired play. I'd like to think we have a chance to win, but I honestly don't know

[Edrow]

For those of you going to the game, we've got to get loud tomorrow night! Let's show our support for our team!

Crunch thanks for starting the thread it looks good.+1
Felton should back and alot depends on whitch team comes out.
Bernies teams played a lot more inspired ball with less talent.[As seen as a lot closer games] And i loved that no quit attitude whitch i've not seen this year . Granted we have more talent . I would just like to see more hustle.

We relly hurting at the five as that problem has to be addressed. Dudley might be able to start at the four as hes been the brightest spot the last two games.
Hollins is not ready though he shows some flashes and Davidson is really a power foward. Whos playing well to be a freasman
We need to try to packege Premoz and Fabio and a 2nd round pick to pick up a big . If that can be done.
If we could go two for one we should try to get a point all so as Jeff can;t handle a team for extended mins.
As for tomorrow nights game . Felton shoud be back that will help. OK50 has to get out of the funk hes in. Rich don't have a goog handle so he should stick to the three and the turn around jumper hes got and only drive when the lane is clear . Hes having to many turnovers. Wallace needs to start his offence closer to the hoop to keep from geting so many dubles and chargeing calls.
On defence we look a lot better when we just man up hard . It looks to me we geting lost on so many switches . Switches might work better in the long run but that system might take a while to learn . Because you got to know exactly when to help.

Im staying positive Bobcats 96 Pacers88

I know it is only the 5th game. But I see it as a major point in our developement this year. A win puts us back over .500, and keeps us in 2nd in the Division. A loss makes 3 in a row and brings down the spirits from the first 2 wins. God forbid that we lose 3 in a row in major blowout fashion. I don't even want to think about that scenario. But rest assured, if that did happen, man o man will the BobcatPlanet Threads be screaming bloody murder for a trade - something to just shake up everything. Dav7z had a good trade idea, but if we make it a first rounder instead of a 2nd, we might coax Indy out of Jermaine O'Neal. If we plugged him in at the 4 and let Okafor play the 5, I'd love our lineup. It might take more than that tho.

[Wallace15]

After the past two 30pt blowout losses I'm really looking for a win here. We get Ray back tomorrow night so that automatically helps. JRich has to shoot better because he can't shoot much worse than he did last night. Wallace is settling for too many jumpshots. He needs to drive to the basket and at least try to draw some fouls. Okafor's really been struggling on offense. He does need to take more shots though, he only took 6 last night.

My prediction-We get back on track with a 97-92 win over Indy.

[King Taharqa]

I'll be there. Go Bobcats!
