Great game by Crash/Felton/Ammo, and the bench for the most part played pretty solid. LB used a lot of bodies, and only Crash & Felton got over 25 mpg.

Nice to SEE them win a game!

What a good win! Sure, it's opportunistic, but to beat a real NBA team without JRich is totally awesome.

Good, but not awesome. They were without Williams, Kirilenko and Okur. Take away 3 of their most productive players and just hang on to beat them is good, but not awesome.

At this stage, any win for us is an awesome win, regardless of who we are playing. We were not expected to win this game, even without Deron et al, so this qualifies as awesome in my book.

It will really mean something if they can put 2 in a row on the board. We are still underwater on this homestand and we need to be .500 after the 6 games.

How'd you get to see it? League Pass? We didn't get it here in CLT.

we need to hire Ewing to coach Okafor, he work with Y. Ming and D. Howard. Do we even have a big man coach now?

DISH still hasn't worked out a deal with the NBA on LP so right now it's still a free preview. They aren't blocking out the games not on FSN (I think it's like 12) and luckiy for me tonight was one of them.

I was starting to think I wouldn't see any wins on TV. Tho they were depleted I thought we played well for a lot of the game...and I'm very happy I saw it.

Congratulations on your win tonight.


We would happily take him off your hands in exchange for Wallace if you'd like.



Please do so. We went 5-0 when PF that actually played defense (erm, erm Millsap) was playing big time minutes as a PF. Boozer is just gay.

I would do that trade. Probably Boozer/Fesenko for something like Wallace/May/Mohammed. Our team would be instantly be better than the Lakers. Since Wallace is so scared of playing the 4, we moving Kirilenko down there, and Wallace can play the 3. I can see Deron Williams having 14 APG with that type of lineup.

Congratz Bobcats. You have one of my favorite teams on the East, good luck the rest of the season, I will keep coming to say hi every once in a while.

went to the game last night.

and the crowds just keep getting smaller and smaller.

shouldnt sean and carlos trade last names?

nice of utah to send their minor league to to play us tonight... sadly, it was almost enough. it took the energy of ryan hollins to get things turned around. we were sleep walking until twiggy came in. and you know who was having the time of her life watching her boy hollins get all that burn.

best laugh of the night, the couple sitting in the section next to me when they announced kosta koufus as the starter. second best laugh of the night, ammo's dunk attempt. OMG, what the hell was that? if he would have gotten hung or miss, he would have never lived that down. that video would be front page of every blog on the planet.

i think we need to start an ammo buzzer beater counter. he hit another last night. thats at least 5 on the season. ammo had his confidence back. one play the guards where running down the right side of the court of a fast break and ammo start waiving his hands and yelling for the ball as he crossed halfcourt, swing pass, boom, 3. thats the swagger he needs. and.... and..... i saw ammo box out a big man that led to someone else getting a rebound. WHAT!?!?!? we don't box out. thats not our style.

but really, speaking of boxing out, we are pathetic. come on LB teach them to box out. okafor and wallace assume they can outjump anyone to the rebound.

is okafor still sick? seriously?

how cheap is bob johnson? you know what our halftime entertainment was last night? commercials. no ****. we got commericials on the scoreboard at halftime. i've heard some other ridiculous stories about some of the budget cuts, but i'll keep those to myself.

how bad was the wallace foul? they never showed a replay in the arena.
