I cant see our Defense by reading the games on Yahoo, but I can tell from what people say that we played good Defense tonight. And I love dominating the Assists and Rebounds categories.
With GS and Wash coming up next, and we playing at home, I feel optimistic about a 4 game winning streak. I dont want to get ahead of myself, but I feel good about this team right now. And right now we are 3.5 out of the Playoff spot. If we get a 4 game streak, we can jump some teams and start to get noticed a bit.

Diaw tearing it up like I thought he would.
Hopefully he keeps it up. Ton of talent.
By the box score, it doesn't appear as if Boris is being passive like in PHX.
Also, 4-4 from 3?!?!?

Along with the excellent work by our front line, nice to see Ajinca and Hollins giving us some decent burn. But let's celebrate Juwan Howard being here and giving us quality minutes off the bench. My goodness! Not so long ago we had a PATHETIC situation at the 4. Now we have Diaw, with Howard looking decent in reserve and Ajinca getting better bit by bit.
Diaw has done wonders for Okafor.

I continue to wait...and hope...for the return to Hornet's glory.

You really shouldn't go to other boards to rub anything in. It can create bad blood between boards, which we don't want, plus we have been on the opposite end of these whoopings many, many times so we know what it's like.
You don't need fans of the team that is giving you the whooping reminding you.
Wow,I´m sorry,I posted it on the spanish official forum in grrizboards.com

Nice win!

We reduced them to shot clock violations and bad long range jump shots because we played D as a unit - which is what we are usually reduced to!
Instead of us jacking up poor, long range J's, we had Boris and Crash backing their defenders down and spinning for easy baskets, which drew the D, which left EO50 open and got him easy baskets.
It all started with our D though. We strangled their offense all game and gave them nothing.
Typical LB type stuff. Great to see.
I can't help but feel that we are a Josh Childress type 2 guard away from making some real noise.
he is availaible next year :p

I believe also that we are a scorer away. Diaw is way better then I ever thought. He looked like a bigger Scottie Pippen out there.
He should be captain.
The Bobcats want to trade kind of for the sake of making changes.
They should see what they have now with Diaw.
Felton has no trade value and apperently Crash's trade value is pretty low to but I say keep them all and just build and wait for the draft or a really good trade to come along.
