The Streak

[fatlever]

the bobcats have lost 23 game in a row... and counting.

the record is 26 by the 2010-11 cavs. if the bobcats lose their first four games this year they will break the record.

our first four games

indiana
@dallas
phoenix
@new orleans

phoenix looks like the most winnable game. dallas could be vunerable w/nowizki out and of course we have never won vs dallas (home or away). new orleans seems to have our number based on the preseason, but they certainly are very beatable. of course it would be great to just win vs indiana in the home opener. take advantage of a big crowd and just do it.

bonnell has an article about this today with quotes from jamison who was on that cavs team

Even without Dirk, playing at Dallas will still be tough. I like our chances against the Suns or the New Orleans.

[Red Larrivee]

The best time to steal a win is at the beginning of the season, so I def think one of those games is winnable.

[Walt Cronkite]

Can barely believe we still haven't beaten the Mavericks.

[HornetJail]

Dallas seems almost winnable. I think we match up well with them minus Nowtizki. Kemba could take Collison, Hendo could probably take down Mayo, while Marion and MKG go at it, Mullens and Bismack could at least stay afloat against Brand and Kaman. I think our bench beats them out as well.

Remember the championship Mavs? Dirk goes out for about two weeks and that great roster went like 2-9 or something. I hate to root against my next favorite team, because I know they're going to need every last win to get back to the playoffs, but we've got to break our streak now, and Dallas is our best bet.

Anytime I need reminding of just how crappy our season was last year I just fire up NBA2K13.

Usually within about 33 seconds of playing a game with the Bobcats as my team they start flashing stat after stat reminding everyone of our crappy winning percentage and our losing streak.

[countryboi]

yea i dont care about the streak...I just want the team to play better if we lose, well we lose but i cant stand anymore unwatchable games.

[Kembastockton]

I don't care about that streak either. I am more concerned with snagging Shabazz or Zeller than avoiding a streak that could help us land one of them.

we have 19 games left this season and we are on a current 10 game losing streak. does anyone think we will lose out the season and break the NBA record of 26 in the process?

i havent seen anything from this team recently to suggest we are capable to winning another game this year.

I think we will but this has been the worst ten game stretch in franchise history in my opinion.

Might be able to catch the inevitable "rest the starters for the playoffs" game.

As poorly as we have been playing, I still think we win at least 2 of these games.
