Leander does seem like a douche that would do hot yoga. I can see him doing that bull****

One things for sure - Goran can't keep up with those zippy little PGs. Unfortunately, the league seems to be full of them now.

Bobcats fan here, good game tonight. Not sure what in the hell our coach is doing playing MKG so few minutes, and with such weird rotations, but nonetheless you guys have a pretty talented roster. Bledsoe is a stud, and as a Duke fan im thrilled with Plumlee. Im going to start following you guys more closely.

Tonight's victory was badly needed.

You can tell our cofidence as a team has suffered a bit. It's no coincidence that Frye, Tucker, and Dragic (our veterans) lead the charge.

It's amazing how bad things are in the east. The Bobcats looked pretty horrible. Yet right now they are a middle of the pack playoff team in the standings. WTF. LOL.

Frye finally has a game in which he doesn't suck in and OF COURSE I miss it!!!

I chuckled at his 3 rebounds stat line though. 3 rebounds for a 6'11, 250 lb PF in 28 mins :lol:

I said this before and I got flamed saying that individual defense doesn't matter at all and that's it's all about team defense.

I thought for the team to be good defensively you needed players who are good individually on defense but I was wrong :lol:

It was strange seeing Bledsoe actually smiling and laughing on the bench. It took me a second to realise it was him, because I'm so unused to seeing him with a smile.

Oh please, stop making things up and sensationalizing. disagreeing with you =/= flaming. People disagreed with you for 1.) implicating Dragic was a worse defender than Nash 2.) making a false statement that Tucker/Dudley/Johnson were used to guard the opposing team's PGs.

The Bobcats were beyond horrible yesterday. I've no idea why the Suns allowed them to reduce the gap in the fourth. At some point I seriously thought Hornacek wanted to lose the game. Was good to see a good shooting performance by Frye and Tucker.

BTW, the constant mispronouncing of Dragic's name by the Bobcats announcers was annoying.

I was at the game yesterday. The game was very difficult to stay into. Mistake after mistake by both teams. Not fun to watch.
A win is a win but there was nothing in this one that makes me say, "ok we're back on track". We just played less bad than they did.

Rebounding isn't so much about size as it is instincts and anticipation - It's just not his game. He's a specialist as a stretch 4...it's also noteworthy that he's taken out of the equation completely on the offensive end where he floats around 25 feet from the basket.
