GT: Raptors vs. Lolcats @ 7:00 PM EST

[Jaruff]

Tonight, December 14, 2010, our marvelous neighbors from Canada arrive in North Carolina for a game. Unfortunately, this is not a Maple Leafs vs. Hurricanes game though the final score will suggest otherwise.

RAPTORS (9-15) VS. (8-15)

Starting for the Raptors...

Jerryd Bayless - DeMar DeRozan - Sonny Weems - Amir Johnson - Andrea Bargnani

Now, for your Charlotte LOLCATS!!!

DJ "Don't Blame Me" Augustin
Stephen "It's Gilbert Arenas' Fault" Jackson
Gerald "It's DJ's Fault, I'm The All-Star" Wallace
Boris "LOLCATS MVP" Diaw
Nazr "I'm Jealous of Theo" Mohammed

And the true stars of the show, your Charlotte LOLKITTENS!!!

Shaun "I Blame My Knee" Livingston
Matt "I Can Shoot ... Just Not In Games" Carroll
Dominic "LOLKITTENS MVP" McGuire
Tyrus "At Least I Played In Chicago" Thomas
Kwame "I Blame MJ" Brown

Our glorious coach Larry Brown and owner Michael Jordan



Game Notes:

- Charlotte has a slim chance of scoring 100 tonight. The Raptors don't play defense.
- If Tyrus is ready to go, he should have a good game against the Raptors front-court.
- Bayless vs. DJ will be an interesting match-up.
- Diaw will probably have the most consistent game against that weak front-court.
- If we have any chance of winning, someone will have to step up and score at least 20 points.
- Reminder for next Game Thread: I need to find some great LOLCAT pictures for the starters if we continue to suck.

Prediction:

Bobcats win by four in a close game. Kwame Brown will grab at least five rebounds. I'm expecting a double-double from Diaw, Nazr, and/or Tyrus tonight.

This is the battle for Kyrie Irving.

Stern owes Michael Jordan big time. And it's about time he paid him back.

Please, we all know that Jordan is going to leverage the future for another playoff appearance and we'll end up with a mid-round bust.

Glad to see TT back, hopefully he's healthy. We really need Hendeson back too, then we could bench Gerald and move S-Jax to the 3.

i expect a bounce back win tonight.

Thread coming in a few hours. Hopefully it continues the epic streak.

Any news at all on Henderson?

LB burried him alive

Uh yeah, he'll soon be joining that stiff Sherron Collins on the Maine Red Claws.

We're all anxiously awaiting your game thread.

MJ's not thinking draft, he's thinking playoffs. So any hopes of a future all star coming out of next years draft, we fans got our eyes on will most likely pass us by. So tanking probably isn't an option, blowing this b**ch up.....

My matchups tonight - DJ vs Bayless.

Bargnani - whoever that crazy old man decides to throw at him tonight. Most likely be a lot of Doris with some TT.

My prediction - just hope it's not a laughfest we put on display against Boston.

[Jaruff]

And it's up. Not perfect but I forgot about the Christmas Party I had to attend on Saturday. Still, a decent performance imo.

Looking for a win tonight against an equally untalented, but less experienced, team.

[BigSlam]

Nice work Jaruff.

What is this internet fascination with Cats? I love most animals but I hate cats.

Nasty creatures
