For Big Slam,


Steven's Diagnosis:
-No Laker girls so I will struggle to focus on this one.
-No Defense versus No Offense. bites fist
-Best I can tell, this game starts at 7:30pm. That is unless the (Gawden) isn't falling apart from the awfulness that is the New York Knicks.

I admit that I check the scores to make sure that the Knicks are losing games. It's a shame for that city to have to call the Knicks their home town team. It's like a fun sport for me.

Let's go Bobcats, or it's another late night with our Ladycat Calenders.

ROFL @ no defense for the knicks players

2 easy games in a row leading up to the ESPN game, just focus. knicks are turrible

I think this has a stong possibility of a split with both home teams winning. But if there is a sweep, the Bobcats are in the driver's seat. I think they are playing much better overall team ball. Even in our losses to teams we know are better than Charlotte, the Cats have played well.

There will be a lot of focus on who has better numbers between DJ and Ray. Honestly, I expect DJ to have a couple more points, Ray to have a couple more assists, Ray to have a couple more rebounds and Ray to have more TO's. Pretty much a wash. But whose team wins is what matters. And I hope it is DJ's.

Gallinari has been on FIRE the last 4 or 5 games. Getting to the line a lot, hitting hit 3's - just pretty much being a pain in the arse! Got to watch out for him.

I assume LB will be going with his 6'6"-6'10" line up a lot these next two games as the Knicks aren't a very big team.

We really need to pull both of these out.

Knicks have played a cake schedule and still managed to get kicked around...

Best chance to climb some positions,I think we can win both perfectly.I´m afraid Stou or Felton could drop a career high on us,but I think Augustin will be extra-motivated to face his former mate,just to let the front office know that they made the right choice.

Go cats

Would be nice to see Dj going Nelson against Felton .)

I don't know.. it's really 50-50. Both team have their own pros and cons.

Anyway, if we somehow can stop them to get hot beyond the arc.. we should stand good chance. We need Wallace to wake up: he got burned by beasley like a college kid, so I really expect him to get his game back and contain Gallinari.

I would say we run a lot. 108-102 for Bobcats

Chandler could cause some problems for us on defense, and I can gurantee you that felton is going to try to play as well as possible, however I think the Cats have the anger factor on their side....

The Knicks are like a poor (homeless) mans Magic to me. A team that has a good inside player who is surrounded by a lot of shooters and a team philosophy that allows dudes to jack it up - and we know how we play against a team like the Magic.

Knowing that LB is fine with allowing teams to shoot from outside with little to no pressure and the fact that guys can get hot worries me about these next two games.

Perhaps I'm being a Felton homer but I'd love to see him light it up for 30+. I still want us to win, obviously, but I'd love to see Felton outshine DJ just for this night. Then I'll go back to being a loyal DJ supporter. Good news is if the DJ experiment fails, we can always resign Felts after next season.

Good luck tonight, gentlemen.

Not really, Knicks schedule - Bobcats schedule pretty much evens out.

Knicks win 97 - 92

Both teams are pretty much 50/50 in terms of team averages, percentages, even our record is identical to date. Their offense is better, our defense is as about as good as their offense. I think the difference tonight will be whether or not we make an an effort to close out their shooters, which we've failed to do so far. We were 2nd in the league last season in opponents 3 point %, this year we've dropped to 14th. Our bigs have to hedge hard on the p&r tonight as well to help poor little DJ out.

Stephanie Ready, how I've missed your face.

Weird camera angle at the Garden.

Weird, but I like it a lot.

Maybe Turiaf should worry about rebounding rather than walking around with three fingers in the air?

Just a suggestion.

Oh no here we go again.
