New York Knicks @ Charlotte Bobcats 12/21

[Dead_Real]

Two game winning streak is a good look for us I just wish we could have continue to build on the lead more right after the half so we could have sat our starters in the 4th to rest them for the game against the Bucks.

PS - Nazr is the fucking man.

Yea I'm a bit worried about tomorrows game, but a win tonight is good, and gets us back-to-back for the first time in a while.

Nazr's stats: 19 pts 13 rbs 3 stls 1 assist 4 blocks


I'm loving this trade more and more each day, glad to see Emeka do well too...First half was great, 2nd half wasn't that good at all...

There's win #10!

Nazr was awesome!

Hopefully we can get win #11 tomorrow!

I know when we made the trade money was the reason some people didn't like it, but if Nazr can do anything close to what he is doing night in and night out, he's definitely worth the money...Him and Okafor are sick together...4 BLOCKS! Last night as a team we had 9 blocks, tonight we have 8 blocks...great defense...

OK. That is back to back great games for Nazr. 20 pts, 14 reb and 4 blks is more than I was hoping for. I hope I am not getting my hopes up too high, but he is turning into a great acquisition! And just think, we got rid of Primoz for him! I liked Herrmann, but he was not going to be an inside presence for us. I wonder if Detroit fans are keeping tabs on the last couple games to see how he performs? If so, they are probably not too thrilled at this point.

I thought this was a big game for us. Now, we just have to stay focused on the court and not let the game start to get away in the 4th. The Knicks made a hard run at us in the 4th. A much better team may have made the comback complete. We have to be tougher and more focused.

But, I am proud of them tonight!

im more worried about nate robinson than anybody else, he's always out there proving himself

Damn Tupac...talk about seeing the future!

What a frigging 1st half that was!!!!! We moved...we moved the ball...we fed the post...we hit shots!!!! THAT'S the way Bobcats play basketball!

That bench of theirs has done this before; they come in working hard and hungry playing some tight D and eat into a big lead while the other team gets lazy. Main thing is we held them off. A very nice win!!!

And like you guys are saying...Nazr is DA MAN!!!!! Who says we lost that trade now?

[Edrow]

Good game tonight by our guys. A couple of quick thoughts:

Nazr Kamikaze is the man! As long as he stays within five feet of the basket.

I really enjoyed the inside feeds and looks our team was utilizing this game. I saw a lot of *Think about dishing it inside before shooting* decisions tonight, and I think it paid off. Although we weren't too bad from the perimeter tonight either, but you guys get the idea. Unselfish play leads to better looks at the basket.

The hustle that the team had tonight was admirable to say the least. The defining example of that is Matt Carroll's skeleton luge like lunge for the ball with less than a second left in the quarter (Half? I can't remember). Effort like that means the boys are playing their butts off. That's a good sign.

All in all I thought it was an awesome game, and i'm not just saying that b/c I got to boo Isiah Thomas for the first time =).

Have a safe and happy holiday season guys and gals, it looks like Santa gave us an early Christmas present!

Spectre: I had mentioned that I would be very happy with this trade and admit that I was wrong if Nazr could prove to be a double double guy. Well, he is doing his best to make me eat my words, and I will be very happy to do so if he continues this pace! I am more than pleasantly surprised!
