Favorite All-time Plays by Bobcats 

Post#1 » by fluffernutter » Fri Oct 17, 2008 11:19 pm

Just wondering what your favorites were.

Mine, in no order -- and I have trouble recalling specifics --

JRICH: hitting a contested mid-range jumped vs. the Celtics to seal the win. He was on fire that game. In Pierce's face, as I recall.

WALLACE: blocked somebody on the Warriors so brutally that he went from almost dunking to being body slammed to the floor. Was it JRich before the trade?

MC Hammer: Five minutes of inspired defense against JJ of the Hawks. Culminated in an under-the-basket block which was clean but called a foul. Totally shut JJ down, and totally unexpected.

FELTON: an awesome left-handed leaning-around-a-double-team laser to Okafor for a slam very late in the 4th vs. ?? Felton had been quasi-trapped off to one side and somehow got this insane pass off. Probably nobody else remembers it due to my terrible description.

HERRMANN: destroying LA in overtime with long-range bombs. Made me laugh. A lot.

DEREK Anderson: after GWall was strapped down and carted away last year, absolutely lead the team to "revenge" the loss. Fouled hard and often; hit 3's; was extremely pissed off and got the rest of the team fired up.

OKAFOR: this is really strange. He has a lot of very good plays but nothing that sticks in my mind as mind-blowingly badass. Hmm... I'll try to come up with something...

MAY: very easy, given that he hardly ever plays. Blocking "King James" for the win.

The Gerald Wallace block against Golden State was on Al Harrington and it was awesome.
Okafor had an incredible block against Tim Duncan who I think was going for a two handed jam while Oak was completely under the basket. I was really worried Oak's arm was going to be broken, but he sent the dunk the other way.
Felton also had a game against the Cavs where he took over the game in the 4th quarter for us and Lebron took over for them. They went bucket for bucket and I think Lebron won it with a pass to Damon Jones in the corner for 3 at the buzzer. Either way, that game is the reason the Cavs have been so interested in trading for Felton.

Here are some, of my many!!

Felts - As SCB said, that 4th qtr when Felts exploded against the Cavs and gave us all great hope was sweet

Swish - That 1st half Vs the Celts when he couldn't miss if he tried

Crash - The game against the Bulls two years ago when he blocked two shots in a row and then took a charge all in the same play......................and we were up by lots and the game was closing out

McMay - Can't remember who it was against but he hit a 3 to win us a game

EO50 - 10 block game against the Knicks

Hammer - The "almost" dunk against the Bulls down the lane

Ammo - Going mental against the Wolves for a qtr and a bit

Dude - The 18 boards against the GSW's

I was referring to this one on Ronnie Brewer. Doesn't look nearly as cool out of context, but if you listen to the crowd in the background it helps a little.

i think 40 of my 50 favs plays are probably from wallace with the other ten from ammo or herrmann.

wallace has so many insane blocks its hard to pick the best ones. the one on al harrington sticks out the most in my mind.

ammo killing the wolves is probably my all-time fav bobcats memory.

I loved Carroll's hammer 3 on Kobe last season. That was an awesome game.

Richardson - last minute lay-up before half-time against the Celtics in Boston. He hit it and ran to the locker room all in one.

The Wallace block on Wally Sczerbiak has to be my #1.

Also from last year, the Felton buzzer beater vs the Cavs - he does seem to do well vs them for some reason.

Also the Richardson JAM on Ginobili last year was sick.

As for May, his last min jumper to beat the Jazz was pretty nice. I wish he could've stayed healthy.

Of all the juice though that gave me, personally, the most squeeze was.........................


The tripple OT win Vs the Lakers when D.Anderson took the charge and p*ssed Kobe off enough for 2mins on D to win us the game while helping us to score on the offensive end.

He will (still for me at least) one day be our head coach.
