Get ready for the Gen board knee jerks when one of the rookies (inevitably) plays well or bad.


Kyrie goes for 20: Kyrie ROY! Kemba sucks!
Biyombo gets 4 blocks: Biyombo is the next Mutombo!
Kemba shoots 3-14: Kemba is overrated!

Would love to see Kemba outplay Irving.

A winnable game, indeed. Go Cats!

lettuce bee cereal and ketchup on reality, no matter how good of a game Biz will have, the Gen board wouldn't say something like this. They are all just waiting for our "talent" to have a bad night so they can bash us and call us delusional

Kemba will outplay Kyrie if he's given about the same amount of minutes tonight. Bismack can be a key to that happening too, being that Kyrie got a habit for driving into the hole amongst the big boys. I hope Silas let this happen instead of trying to market Augustin's trade value. It will be exciting for me to watch.

I think Tyrus might try to return tonight being that his job is for the taken, if it hasn't already been took. Either way, probably better now than later.

Well that might be hard to do considering Kyrie is starting and Kemba isnt...

I want a win, and I want to see Kemba and Biyombo have solid, efficient games. Kemba wont get the minutes Kyrie gets, so cannot really compare them, and I dare say Tristan gets more minutes than Biyombo. But I do bet Tristan gets one or two thrown back in his face by Biyombo and gets us all jacked up!

This is a statement game. We cannot allow Cleveland to have an easy path to the worst record in the league, so hopefully tonight we show them we're not messing around. This #1 pick is ours and they need to back the F off.


Come on guys, I just need you to hold out for another 6 more months. We Bobcats fans can do that standing on our heads. 6 months until glory days return...

Ryan Hollins may have a few things to say about that.

We will need the hand of god to overcome the incompetense shown by the Wizards this year though, however I agree that this must be a benchmark game in which we make our case for the 1st pick. We need to lose this game so bad that it convinces the rest of the league to give up in their pursuit of the #1 pick.

i would be way more excited about tanking for a #1 pick if there was a lebron, duncan, durant, griffin, rose even wall type prospect waiting to turn pro. i am not excited about the top 5 players in this draft. this draft might be deep, but i dont see the franchise changing players here, at least not yet.

I'm pumped for this game, I really hope Kemba starts & plays the lions share of minutes at the one.

It most likely won't happen though.

Well they might be on the court at the same time and guard each other.

I reckon they will match up for a fair portion of this game.

Kemba will be going hard at Kyrie tonight.

We don't need to tank, we aren't winning many games with our current talent...

We need to try to win every game(& fail)

Seriously though we need to maintain our optimism.
