Opening Night: Charlotte Bobcats @ Cleveland Cavaliers 10/30
@
Here we are folks! The season is 3 days away so I figured it was a good time to start the first official game thread of the regular season.
This is a very tough opening game for the Bobcats but I expect it to be a close game however I think in the end LeBron will be too much and we will go down 95-90 (although I hope to regret these words come Thursday night).
GO BOBCATS!
Seeing as there are still three days till the game, I'd say there's naught left but to indulge in the act of prediction, and my crystal ball says that the Bobcats'll be downed by not less than 15 points with Raymond leading the Bobcats' scorers list with 17+points on less than 34 FG% shooting, and Andre Brown will not pan out. Should I shatter my crystal ball ??
We can see very surprising results during opening week, however I don't expect us to do one of these. Cavs have no injured players and they are clearly favorites.

I think Emeka will have a good game against Big Z, but worried about Lebron and Ben Wallace...We have no true depth at PF, and if May truly starts I don't think he'll be able to handle Big Ben...Felton and DJ I think will both have nice games...
Raymond Felton: 12 pts 6 assist 1 steal
JRich: 23 pts 8 rbs 2 assist
Wallace: 18 pts 3 assist 2 steals 1 block
May: 6 pts 4 rbs
Okafor: 15 pts 11 rbs 2 blocks
DJ Augustine: 9 pts 4 assist 1 steal
A. Brown: 6 pts 4 rbs
Duds: 7 pts 2 rbs
Carroll: 5 pts
I think the ball gets spread around a lot as you can see, but I think Cleveland has the clear advantage...

I'm sorry guys, and I really DO love the 'cats. But for some reason, I'm thinking of a blowout.....
I'm looking at this being a statement year from LeBron, and he's going to start with a thrashing on us(Which will be good for my Fantasy team
)
You're worried about Ben WallaceI didn't even know he was still alive.
Not sure I see us scoring 101 points like you have, but I can tell you put some thought into that.Originally Posted by ALong13
As far as the game goes, anything can happen, and I avoid specific prognostication, so all I have to say is Go CATS!!!!I'm sorry guys, and I really DO love the 'cats. But for some reason, I'm thinking of a blowout.....

As for the fantasy thing, if any Cav is going to do a trashing it better be my utility G, Mo Williams!!!
"The Charlotte Hornets name has been a mainstay throughout the region for many years, and we are excited to announce our intention to re-establish this historic brand. We believe that its return will galvanize our fan base by unifying our loyal Bobcats fans with those who have strong memories of our city's NBA predecessor." MJ, 5-21-13
I do think the game will be a high scoring one...I had the Bobcats having a 101 points and I still think they will, but right now I still give Cleveland the edge...IMO 108-101...but I really hope the Cats could prove me wrong

No way this is a high scoring game. Both of these teams play tough defense (if what the Bobcats showed in the pre-season continues that is).
