Preseason: Charlotte Bobcats at Orlando Magic 10/8

[ziggy]

Ahhhh, The return of the game thread . Its been too long, I almost feel misty eyed climbing back into the comfy-coziness of the game thread forum.

Wednesday evening we start off our preseason by going on the road to face Dwight Howard and the Orlando Magic



There are so many things that I'm looking forward to see this preseason, like:
* How is Sean May looking ( apparently he no longer needs a girdle )
* How is Ammo looking ( Slick Rick Bonnell and Blastmaster Tom Sorenson have been saying that he looks good and that he has been knocking down shots )
* How well will DJ perform against NBA caliber competition? He looked good in summer league, but thats summer league.
* Will the Bobcats be able to play with the effort and precision that LB expects?
* Will we get to see The Eiffel Tower? Will he foul out during warmups as LArry Brown suggested?
* and many, many, many more questions that like these probably won't be answered in the first game of the preseason, but at least it will give us a taste.

Are you guys ready?

I can't wait either hopefully everyone will be able to get the game unlike last year. The Magic always seem to have our number majority of the time we face them preseason or not I wanna see a great showing from everyone and most importantly no injuries.

Missed doing this but I'm predicting Ammo see's major minutes and will be the player of the game.

Yes! Can't wait for this game!!! Go Cats!

[Alex]

No injuries.

[TheBeagle]

No injuries.

This is what it's all about. Preseaon is meaningless in terms of Ws and Ls, but the way the guys gelled the last month, I expect more Ws than we've had in years past. Just please: NO INJURIES!!!!!

Charter Communications cable screwed us in the Upstate of SC late last season and did not show the Bobcat games. This morning I called and they said it was listed as showing, but I dont know. On the cable guide on TV, it has something else listed. Hopefully it will show. But in case it doesn't, it there anywhere on-line where the game can be seen?

No injuries. I wish good pre-season games for Ammo especially to get more confidence. I smell a break out or two from our second squad player in this game.

I wonder will Emeka play or will he rest with his back?

do the cats have a state wide radio broad cast,like the panthers?

Call up your provider and raise hell. That's what I've been doing the last 2 days.

If worse comes to worst (which I'm sure it will) the good fans of BCP will no doubt have links in this thread either to a vidcast or to a radio feed.

I know it's just the 1st preseason game but I really think that all the summer workouts and dedication that our guys have shown, coupled with Larry Brown and his expectaions, will result in a big opening game for the Bobcats. I haven't followed the Magic's offseason workouts and training camp but there is no way that they (or many other NBA teams) have matched our guys work ethic for the past couple of months. Not that it means much, but I expect a great performance from our crew.

I doubt Emeka plays. That will make us a different team. Nazr probably starts at center. Everyone else seems to be a go however. I can't wait!
