We need to cut this lead down to about 6 heading into the fourth to win.

Clifford and Rivera are probably the two most stubborn coaches in their sport, and we have both of them in Charlotte

Glad we have a “defensive minded” coach

I hope we will have some good minutes of Kemba/Cody in the 4th. Howard already has his double double and around 23mn...

So, we're back to playing the clogged toilet offense through an overrated and aging traditional center... Gotta love this franchise.

Yeah you certainly can't blame Howard for this, without him we'd be down 30 or more right now

Pistons are jamming Kemba and no one else has come close to stepping up

If we're going to get smacked in the mouth, might as well be the first game of the season I guess.

We can't lose this game.

Otherwise, all my predictions will collapse... :P

The fact that we only lost that quarter by a point is amazing.

We are playing with no pace and little movement. We aren't getting anything from the pick and roll and not many good looks from 3. Our offense has basically been Howard/Kemba/Lamb isos. Its not surprising we are getting blown out. I'm guessing as the season goes on the correlation between all those things and Howard being on the floor will become more obvious, but hopefully I'm wrong.

Edit: It could also have a lot to do with Batum being out.

Frank is looking god awful. For me, this is his last season to prove he wasn't a waste of a pick. Dwight hasn't looked terrible, but I don't at all like how many touches he's gotten offensively.

Our power forwards are just awful.
