Well, I haven't heard anything from Slammy and Fatsy about doing the GT's this year. Either they forgot or I sucked so bad last year they can't even address me. :/

I added a few modification to this years graphics. I gave the middle graphic a jersey trim. Every team will have that except for Chicago and Boston. Sorry guys. It's smaller too. I hated how big I made the graphics last year and I bet most of you guys did too. So that's taken care of. I got rid of the players names because this is a smart board and everyone knows who everyone is. It's more together with the graphics as you can see because they're touching.
It's still the 15 year anniversary of NBA JAM so I have those ready too. I also have a NEW theme for this year so I'm looking forward to that (If i'm asked back). It's pretty cool.
I might not be able to make a GT for every game so I might need some help from someone. I type too much so I'll wrap this up.
p.s. I'll be at the game.

Awesome graphics as usual! Don't let the silence bother you. It's the silence of awed appreciation, not lack of interest.
And, just for laughs, you should have penciled in May for the staring job at PF. Okafor is supposed to be the center (full time)... and Nazr is his backup... I think?
Or you could have put the top 4 starters with a doughnut representing May, that works as well.

It will be interesting to see how many minutes Brown works the "starters" in this first game. I've got to believe much depends on the quality of play. Is it possible this game is on the pre-season League Pass? If not, when is the 1st game for the Cats?

Steve - you are contracted for life to create the game threads!!
Thanks for getting this one up and going.
VERY excited to have Bobcats basketball back. Wish we could watch it. Bonnell doesn't think that EO50 will be playing tomorrow night though. He'll be having a break and resting his body.

Emeka's just afraid of Dwight, he'll be fine Thursday.

exactly.
sorry for not saying something earlier. i've been pretty much absent from the board recently. i dont think i've ever been this busy at work in my life. it sucks. i have zero time to surf the net at work anymore (yeah, i know, boo hoo) and when i do the realgm barely runs on my 2004 model crap computer at work, which is stuck with 256ram which is hardly enough to load that GD wiretap box... so what took me 15 minutes to sorth through before, now takes me 30 minutes. ugh... and by the time i get home at 7:30ish i am dead tired. i guess this is what having kids feels like. how do you parents do it. with all the bank failures and the end of the year approaching, i think its only going to get worse at work. but hell, i cant slack off cause by the looks of things 50% of charlotte will be unemployed in 3 months.
the sky is falling, the sky is falling.
ANYWAY......
i thought this game was supposed to be on TV? i cant find it in the guide, as i planned to DVR it. does anyone know? the TV schedule on the bobcats website says the game is televised on one of the fox channels. maybe they just suck like news14 and cant figure out how to put the game in the guide. instead i'll have to record 6 crappy 30 minute shows in hopes its actually the game.

Hey guys, I was wondering if anyone knows of a live intrawebz feed of the game because it looks like its going to get blacked out here in Orlando.

Bonnell is saying that LB plans on playing the starters together a lot tonight and that EO50 will go (I LOVE how much Bonnell flip flops!!)

Apparently it'll be on FSN South tonight, so I should be able to watch it up here in Boone. Hopefully..

Please oh please let Charter Communications give us the game in the Upstate of SC. They said it will be on, but the cable guide says otherwise. Charter screwed us last season; hopefully the Cats worked things out with Charter. I guess I'll know tonight.

Also in Boone, and I have FSN South HD. It would be a blessing from God if they broadcast Bobcats games in HD this season, but I know this is 99.98% probably not going to happen. I should hope I just get the game instead of a replay of some Div-2 college football game played this past weekend.

I hope that if anyone has a web link to tonight's game (if such a thing exists) they do not supply it in this thread, since that is not allowed, but it would be interesting to know on what site such a link might be listed, if such a site exists, such 2nd level citations being, I suspect, legal.

if anyone does, i'll allow it to be up on the link below. That'll be great for fans who don't have the opportunity to have the game on TV.

I mean I understand RealGM don't want anything not dealing with RealGM, so there's a good neutral opportunity to let fans who can't watch...watch the game!
