I don't think its on TV. I'm going...waiting to see if tickets drop a whole lot today or tomorrow morning before the game on stubhub. Lower levels are still kinda expensive :-?

i dont think its being televised in charlotte. i checked preview guide for tomorrow and its not listed.

of course, i could get my lazy ass to the arena tomorrow and watch in person, but 1PM on sunday is an awful time for a game.

anyone want to take a stab at the starters?

kemba, hendo, mkg, biz, haywood?

bonnell said biz and mully have been playing mostly at PF in training camp. that seems to indicate that haywood is our starting center and it will be between biz, tyrus and mully for the starting PF spot.

So I guess that makes Gana our back up centre.....

thats an excellent question. i'd hope that dunlap can see the benefit in playing biz and mully some minutes at center at the expense of keeping diop off the court.

Well they probably want/need to get Tyrus some minutes after all that praise about his impact on defensive end etc.

I hope I will get front row seats tomorrow.

I was just wondering what it would be like to sit in the "first row" watching this game and what you would see and according to the schedule displayed right now - you would see the whole thing!!

i guess i will check back around 1 to see if i can get on first row. if not i will LShunt around for some other tix. if that fails, i'll just watch boxscores. i dont really feel like going down and getting in panthers mess today, in the rain, during football sunday, to see higgins, carroll and diop play 25 minutes.

No TV on #bobcats today (or any preseason game, to my knowledge.)Game is on WFNZ radio, far as I know.

Hmmm...they have the Bobs/Wiz game queued up on the Calendar on NBA League Pass today (I just re-upped my International version), so fingers crossed here in the UK. I was able to watch some of the Mavs/Berlin game yesterday, so hopefully they'll have a stream.
