Isn't that NBA Jam? lol. I love it. This is a winnable game. Its going to be tight but I think we can squeak it out. We have been playing in a lot of close games lately.

Two things are for sure:

1. EO50 is seriously going to benefit by playing next to someone like Diaw

2. EO50 is going to have a large night - he has that "look" about him

Do you get vision of the game LT or do you have to follow box scores?

Warrick is very undersized,and Milicic gets into foultrouble so often,he should benefit from that.Well,on the bench is Marc,I´m worried about him,he plays best D and best offensive game than Warrick and Darko.

Fortunately Iavaroni is stupid...

I'm worried that Bell actually hitting a jumper will encourage him to miss another 19 straight.

Great start for Bobcats....even Howard and Raja getting into the act. Felton with two early fouls gets DJ on the court, but the more I see of Felton the more I think how dangerous he would be with some shooters surrounding him. Not sure I want to see him go at this point...

They have no answer for EO50 at all. Now we just have to make sure we keep going to him.

Edit: Just like that!!

Wow. That was a heck of a quarter. It was the Emeka Okafor show!! He made it so easy just by being aggressive, sticking his rump out and creating space and by being patient.

Best thing about it is that it was like EVERYONE on the team recognized how good he was looking and continually fed him the ball riding the hot hand.

Made 16-21 FGs in the 1st quarter....36 points

Mohammed is playing?Is his mission to inury Mayo?2 fouls,Holy God...

Lord Thaliontil · Post #18 » by **Lord Thaliontil** » Sat Dec 20, 2008 1:45 am

C´mon,now it´s Diaw time,Warrick cannot answer him

I just got to say Okufor is playing like I thought he would out of college. He needs to stay intence and watch every single minute Mourning has played and try and be like Zo. He has that kind of potential. Also if Diaw keeps this up which is making Okufor aggressive and getting a real pg in there which is also give Okufor free shots there is no reason to trade Crash. He should not be on the block. He is exactly what every team needs. A defensive stud who gets you stats without drawing a single play for him.

Here is something I have noticed over the last 6 or 7 games - and I think it paints a picture of the sort of teacher/enforcer/meticulous coach LB is:

Check out Felts and DJ when they bring the ball down the court. There are 2 or 3 set plays where they dribble down the right hand side, get to the 3 point line at the elbow , turn on the spot to the right direction and then pass across the top of the key back to the left after completing the 270 degree turn.

Even though there is no one guarding them, they do this little turn, it's on the exact same spot and both of them do it.

I can almost see LB at training putting a dime on the court and telling them both "you go exactly to this spot, you turn exactly this way and at this speed and that is how you run the play".

See if you notice it this game. Felts and DJ pretty mirror each other when they do it.

I can imagine LB standing on the side lines during the game like a stage Mum mouthing the words to the song they kid is singing at the talent show mouthing "dribble, stop, turn, pass".

When I post "that's it", you'll know what I am talking about!!
