We could have had our 6 game winning streak made there. But the Spurs got lucky with a Diaw missed 3. Never forget Bobcats.

I want to get excited about tonights game but I want to keep my expectations in check too. Our 6 game streak has been great but outside of the Hawks we didn't really play anyone. I think we'll be competitive tonight (which there is no shame in on the road in SA) but I think the streak comes to an end. We're due to have a poor shooting night some time soon.

Come on Bobcats!!! Prove me wrong.

If we could steal win either tonight or on Friday night, it would be HUGE for us.

Even tho our game vs Houston is at home, I actually think our better chance to pull off a win might be tonight. With no Manu, San Antonio is vulnerable. Just have to have superb defense by Ray on Tony Parker - which is a tall order I know, but he can do. Without Manu, if we can control Tony Parker, we will win, regardless of what Timmy Duncan does. But Houston is just plain tough, even without Tracy Mac. We have no one to stop Ming in the middle.

Bobcats 91 Spurs 88

Yeah, I agree that if theyre gonna get steal a win in the next two, its probably gonna be tonight. Okafor matches up alot better with a play like Duncan than he does Yao

If Charlotte can win these next two, or even split them their next 4 games after these next 2 are again Toronto twice, Sacramento, and Indiana. Those last 4 games are all games they should win.

They could be setting themselves up for a very nice run.

^I'm soooo worried about the Toronto games.

I REALLY want to win this game after the last game we played vs the Spurs and blew it in the 4th quarter

Good thing they have no Manu!

My take is this: When all 3 of the Big 3 are on, Spurs win. When only 2 of 3, you have a chance. When only 1 of 3, they are very beatable.

No Manu tonight. To me, the key to victory is Ray. Let Ray focus all his energy on Defense to shut down Parker. We have others who are good with Assists, like Diaw, Bell and Crash. Ray's defense is our key to victory tonight. Timmy Duncan cannot win it alone. If we take away Parker, we win.

I wasn't even sure who starts for the Spurs these days so I had to check the Observer!!

They don't look as frightening as they once did - of course 6 wins in a row is equal to an amount of Dutch courage!!

EO50 should eat Bonner's lunch so we should go to him all night long and if it's Duncan guarding EO50, that means that the Red Rocket is trying to guard Boris - which is even better.

Bonner actually worries me a little. He tends to play way out on the perimeter, and shoots the 3 pretty well. I say match Okafor up on Duncan, and let Diaw chase Bonner around the perimeter if thats what he chooses to do.

The recipe for a win against the Spurs for the BobCats is to put Raja on Parker!! Raymond can guard Bowen and focus on the offense.

Nervous.

Really good D by Felts on Parker denying his drive.

Mek needs to shoot that every time!

Post #18 » by **BigSlam** » Wed Mar 11, 2009 12:46 am

Seriously - Boris should put up 30pts tonight.

Post #19 » by **Walt Cronkite** » Wed Mar 11, 2009 12:47 am

That was terribly late and they ought to let them play with the way Duncan "boxed out" Mek...
