Seriously, guys. This Nazr Mohammed cat seems to be the answer to all of our interior scoring and rebounding woes.

Bobcats did a really good job tonight.

Tradechecker says Amir and Tayshaun for Gerald Wallace doesn't work :-(

Yeah it's mucked up by the BYC status of both Crash and Amir.

Bobcats officials are upset about the officiating at the end with the inbounds play.

4 players in double figures. Huge basket from Mr Big Shot, to hit the 3 to send it into overtime.

I'm glad that Nazr has found a found a home were he can get a chance to play.

Our bench sucked tonight.

Well a win is always better than a loss...that's about the nicest thing I can say. Though I did kind of see this as a trap game.

Stuckey played 12 1/2 minutes, had no points and the team was -9 in that time.

He hasn't really played good since before the Boston game.

Bobcats have been impressive lately. I think they're going to slip into the 7th or 8th seed.

Would be a good first round match up for us.

Bobcats did really well. That offensive goaltending did it.

It is still a stupid rule though.

We should have lost this game.
They had as many made baskets as us, on a greater percentage. They only had three fewer rebounds. They hit one more free throw on ELEVEN more attempts.
=loss.

For some reason, Flip has been playing him off the ball starting with that Boston game (He played a little more on the ball against Dallas because it was garbage time). It's obvious Flip just doesn't trust him, so he's giving the ball to either wing veteran (Prince or Rip) who is on the floor at the time. It completely negates Stuckey's game which is all based on attacking off the dribble. And neither Prince or Rip can get the offense running smoothly, so the team struggles.

Another case of a young guy not being used properly. The fact that it started against Boston is not surprising. Flip changes up to a conservative gameplan against a good team. The same thing he does in the playoffs, when we start running only ISOs in crunch time.

I doubt it.I read that they have a huge amount of road games left on their schedule

Nazr must have an identical twin that took his place when he got traded to the Bobcats. This is not the same guy the Pistons had
