Yey for Insomnia! Been up for around 30 hours now. Woo hoo.
This may be edited again today, but in the event that I was to fall asleep before the game started, I'll go ahead and get it posted.
------------------------
Bobcats (17-25) at Kings (10-32)ESPN aka Being Lazy:
http://espn.go.com/nba/preview?gameId=310125023Bobcats Keys: - Can we stop Tyreke or will he treat us like an Interstate?
- Can we take advantage of a gimpy Cousins and get him in early foul trouble (which isn't hard to do)?
- Will someone by the name of Wallace or Jackson finally outplay the senior squad at the local YMCA?
- DJ scoring 20 points (again) and Henderson providing a spark off the bench.
- Can we avoid the embarrassment of losing to the Cavs of the West? Likely; we've won four straight against the Kings.
Insider Info:My best homie is a Kings fan, so here are some tidbits:
- Cousins was injured last night against the Trailblazers.
- You have a better chance of surviving Russian Roulette with a fully loaded revolver than correctly guessing Sacramento's rotation each game.
- Pooh Jeter > Sherron Collins
Starters:Bobcats: DJ - Jax - Crash - Diaw - Kwame
Kings: Beno - Tyreke - ??? x 3

Skip to 0:30 for proof that JT is worth Gerald Wallace and a Micheal Jordan autograph.

Out of all our recent games, this is the most winnable. Reke has been hot gahbage most of this year and Cousins is in it for the lulz.
But then again, they've got 3pt shooters and Jack may start throwing hissy fits instead of playing defense...

True, true. But my mind just can't seem to get around how Jackson can possibly guard Tyreke. For this game anyway, I would much rather see Hendo start on Reke and have Jackson come off the bench to shadow Garcia or switch off on to Greene.

It never feels 'right' saying this, but I'm not even worried about Cousins because of Diaw.

Jackson needs to come off the bench... but Reke's been playing hurt all year long and he does just as much bad as good these days. Hopefully Jax and Reke cancel each other out. Can't say I'm a fan of either anymore.

Here's to waiting on Jax/Wallace to finally turn it around! Oh...and a win! haha This would be a disapointing game to drop.

The time for Jax to impersonate Sprewell has passed.

Tyreke can be magical when he wants to be.

http://blogs.charlotte.com/inside_the_n ... notes.htmlcoach Paul Silas, searching for ways to replace Tyrus Thomas, might use Kwame Brown and Mohammed together for parts of tonight’s matchup with the Sacramento Kings
The Bobcats don’t have an advance scout this season. That’s the guy who attends games of upcoming opponents, to diagram their plays and hopefully pick up verbal and visual signals
Silas was surprised, when he took over the Bobcats a month ago, how haphazard they were in some of their defensive habits.
“They’ve learned a lot and we’re much, much better,’’ Silas said, adding the pick-and-roll defense – particularly impeding the big man after he sets the pick – needed a lot of clean-up.

So, why in the hell don't we have an advance scout? I can't imagine it was be too much to hire one, even with travel expenses.

Who needs an advance scout when you have Hall of Fame coaching?

Hey, I'd be a proper gentleman!
We'd only have to worry about that when we were scouting the Lakers.
