Hey! Kemba with a nice easy set up for a Hendo jumper. I wish he had any discernible PG skills......

If Silas throw the starters back in, this will be a catastrophe of almost all events :lol:

that must have been one hell of a first half by mullens because he looks god awful since i started watching. i dont think he has successfully boxed anyone out yet.

Hope Biz goes all "love child of Mully and T2" over these final 5 mins and tries to score every time he touches the ball.

bobcats could use more minutes from biyombo for his energy alone. let alone how it would effect him to get into the rhythm of games.

Four fouls in 12 minutes. He can't play if he can't stay on the court. Tyrus has the same problem.

Highlight for me was Nique's thrashing of Tyrus guarding Joe Johnson and Diaw...that alone was satisfying enough to hear a HOFer call Diaw out like that.

Those 2 quick fouls on White and Smack at the beginning of the 2nd quarter was a complete joke. Just some good ol homecooking officiating hard at work. **** the foul trouble, let him learn the NBA game on the floor not on the bench.

Mullens D needs a lot of work and he needs to get stronger. Zaza was pushing him around a lot tonight.

Smack's p&r D is outstanding, those long arms really come in handy.

Hendo is showing improvement. Like to see him attack more, shame he couldn't practice more over the off season. Also like to see him mix it up more curling off those screens instead of settling for jumpers all the time. Take 1-2 dribbles closer in and pull up or attack.

We SUCK bad.

let him foul out, then. but give him minutes on a court somewhere playing basketball, so he can look a little less anxious and hurried all the time. i imagine that more time spent playing NBA defense with NBA refs, he'll chisel the fouls down a bit, definitely enough for him to stay on the floor.

Well, Mullens started and was leading scorer, that's a good sign. I am happy having Josh Smith on my fantasy roster; finally.

My random observations from this game:

*As Boris goes, so does the Bobcats. That's really depressing.
*Byron just might be our best offensive weapon, mostly b/c he's 7' tall. That's also kind of depressing.
*Silas needs to face facts and just play the rookies more when we get behind by double digits.
*Tyrus Thomas looks like he spent the offseason at Auschwitz.
*Cory Higgins' game tonight was reminiscent of a poor man's Richard Hamilton.

I am very let down by the team's performance. No Horford, nor Marvin Williams, but we still lose by 30? Get the **** outta here...
