Amen Slam.

If you get a 10 point lead playing one way for three quarters, there's no reason to deviate from that during crunch time.

In other news: Go Memphis Shaqs and Detroit.

It was the right thing to do.


AMEN! Hate the small lineup except in spot duty. But tonight it had some legs when Diaw and T2 were both in.

Excellent game. Just got to the laptop to post. The *#*# DVR wasn't working properly so I missed the entire 1st half. The team looked totally different tonight. Played with confidence, Jackson was THE MAN, but T2, Felts, Diaw and Theo really contributed. DJ played very well on offense, and worked harder on D (still not very effective there). Amazing game by Tyrus. He brings a LOT to the table for us. Granted he'll need to do this with consistency, which has been a challenge for him. But I think he'll embrace this new start, and Larry will coach him into a PLAYA! Awesome win Cats!
I continue to wait...and hope...for the return to Hornet's glory.

A credit to Larry Brown, possibly one of the best coach/GM'S this game has ever seen. He's gotten bad "rap" for trading young players, but these young players seriously sucked.

Darko Milicic
Speedy Claxton
Jerry Stackhouse
Larry Hughes

I just can't name a fifth starter for this all-godly suck team. For bringing my Sixers to the Finals, I commend him. LB knows basketball.

And it's clear the Bobcats are going to be on notice for the league, TT looks energized and a difference maker. Shawn Marion-Lite. He and Wallace together are scary. Then getting Theo for a second was a great manuever, Theo's played in Brown's system before, he'll be energized by getting minutes there.

We seem to play to our competition rather than our ability.

If we played to our ability all the time rather than down to our competition some of the time we would be welllllllllllllllllllll above .500

Wow, this team plays tough against tough teams and bad against bad teams. I didn't expect domination though. Looks like acquiring TT was mainly to get Boris fighting to keep his starting job.

It's just a balancing act to see if the Bobcats can stay in eight place and face the Cavs in the first round. Just an ugly match-up facing the Bobcats because you know they'll drag it out into a long fight.

You guys just apparently have our number. Your defense is unbelievably good now. I hope you guys get Orlando or Boston in the playoffs. Say no to the Bobcats in the first round. Congrats.
