Vs



------------------------------------------------------------------

This is a very important game tonight and should have a playoff type atmosphere

If we win this game we'll be one step closer to getting the 6th and maybe even the 5th seed

Hopefully we can dominate this game and brim with confidence, make a statement and have this victory boost our morale to Chicago and onward

Key matchups

*Felton vs Jennings - If felton can stick jennings defensively and make Skiles lose confidence in Jennings for the game and bring Ridnour in for most of the fourth like hes known to do that'll be a big advantage for the 'Cats, Ridnour stabilizes a game he isn't the type to win one for you..

*Jax Vs Salmons - Jax needs to out play Salmons and then defend him with intensity, they are the similar type of players and if Jax beat him in a effective manner offensively and defensively the game should be ours to for the taking

*Theo/Tyson Vs Bogut - We contained dwight nicely in that game in orlando, if we could do it to dwight we can do it to bogut, we should attack him similarly to the way we did howard, if we do that and get him in early foul trouble the bucks will be on the ropes...


Random Espn-esque stat of the game

Chandler hasn't faced the Bucks this season, but he has averaged 14.3 points and 16.5 rebounds in six meetings.

Because of that stat our
X Factor of the game will be... if he can continue to progress like he has these past few games we should be in a real good position to win this game..


Lets Go Cats!!!!

We don't necessarily gain access to 5th or 6th place by winning this game - but a loss here marries us to 7th place IMO. I think this is the biggest game of the month, much bigger than Chicago.

I agree. While a win might not have an immediate impact on our seeding there is no doubt this is a statement game.

We need to signal our intentions for how we are going to approach the remainder of this season and the post season.

This is going to be a tough game, both teams will want to win hard. It's definitely a crucial game for us.

So... Tyrus Thomas is he going to be back? (Yes this is a shameless attempt to try and figure out what to do with my fantasy basketball team)

We'll certainly need Tyrus in there to deal with Iliosova or whatever the hell that dudes name is. I think the key to winning this game is to force Jennings into mistakes and not let Salmons going. Bogut will get us against us I'm sure so we need to make sure the other two have bad games.

I think TT will play, he was active for the sixers game but I guess he was just a life line if crap hit the fan against philly

Loving the idea of a theme song for the game Stun. Awesome addition.

Picture Slam getting his groove on to the tunes in the kitchen as he makes pancakes for the kids.

'Cause that's how I get down.

14/17 Vs the Bucks?

That's amazing! We are going to need a game like that from him to contain the big Aussie.

I agree. And if we do win tonight, then every game remaining does have a very strong impact on if we stay in 7th or move up. This is the biggest game of the season for Charlotte. But if we win, then the next one becomes even bigger.

Yeah, I don't think that stat is really relevant here. Last time Chandler played against the Bucks was March 13th of 09 (Bogut didn't play) and Tyson put up 8/17/0/0 in 38 minutes. Game before that he put up 14/9/0/2 on us in 33 minutes on 2/27/09. We were also without Bogut. That's it in the last 2 years. Neither Chandler nor Bogut are the same players they were 3 years ago.

Mate, Chandler isn't the same from game to game - forget about 3 years ago!!

Delfino is back tonight. That's a huge plus for the Bucks, because with him in the starting lineup, our net efficiency has been +15.81 over the last two months! Missing him really hurts our depth and screws our rotations up.

Should be a very intense game. Worst of luck to you guys tonight, but best of luck from here on out

OT: Lol WTF @ the back ground of Tysons twitter page

if larry hughes starts we lose its that simple.....this dude offensive game is completely broken

Where did you hear that coolio?

He has a strained hamstring and sat out practice yesterday, and is listed as questionable. I would assume he will try to play though the pain but he is much more needed tomorrow and we can afford to let him rest.

Bobcats guard Stephen Jackson is trying to play through a strained hamstring.
