WOW. I checked the scores with about 15 secs to go in regulation and Atlanta were up 4. Thought that should have been game.

Want to see zone defense with DJ and Kemba up front (isn't this why we hired that Catalonian?) Also, Diaw and Bizzy B. Fill in the blank with the other spot, hopefully not Mags or Hammer... Hendo maybe?

lol, I watched that game until about 12s to go, figured ATL won and popped in 2K12. 40mins later I change it back to check the LAL-POR score and the first game is STILL ON.

Good teams would capitalize on Atlanta's fatigue. I have no idea if he are capable of doing it. Unpredictable game if you ask me.

Cats should win this one. We are at home and ATL will be dog tired coming off a 3 OT loss and having to fly up here. Even if the flight is only 1 hour, still will be a pain to go thru the process.
Will feel good about the young talent on this team if we can get to 3-4 tonight.

They probably don't have any confidence or energy now..

This is a game between two unpredictable teams. Atlanta may be tired, but they're still more talented than the Bobcats are. Therefore, I don't know what's going to happen. I hope D.J. Augustin continue his progress of having a career year aka quantum leap into being starting caliber so a PG-desperate roster may bite and offer Charlotte some valuable assets in exchange.

Rick Bonnell "Thomas (sprained ankle) will play his first regular-season game tonight vs Hawks."

Thats good news!!!! Hopefully he does not cut into Biz minutes though.

Rick Bonnell" Sounds like Tyrus Thomas will play some backup small forward in Corey Maggette's absence."

This should help with rotations so we still get to see good amount of Biz and Mullens.

I'm going to miss this one due to the weekly auction but here are some predictions.

Biz won't play more than 10-15 minutes unless it's a blowout.
Kemba Walker will rebound, score at least 10.
Tyrus Thomas will break his slippers again.
Henderson leads the team in scoring.
Mullens with another double figure game.

And, of course:

Matt Carroll will score 20. :D

At this point I would like Higgins to back up Henderson at SG over Carroll. That could calm him down a bit so once ensured he is getting his minutes, he may not be so psyched about playing time and forcing things trying to showcase himself. I would still pick Dante over him. Hopefully with Tyrus back and some of our PF/C guys sliding to SF instead of Maggette, sials gets it and lets Bismack play a bit more. Our PFs and Cs (Diaw) playing at SF, leaving Bismack more minutes to grab is one of the few beneficial things of not having Dante. Still it is coincidental as Maggette goes down once Tyrus is able to return #for how long

I think were going to miss Maggette three point shooting the most.

Also, Over-Under on Tyrus taking more then 10 shots tonight?
