Jamal Crawford's having a career night from distance. Just saying.

Griffin is going to put someone on a poster.

All I want to see is if Kemba can style on Bledsoe, or vice versa. A Bobcats win & end to the losing streak would be great though

kemba vs bledsoe is what i am looking forward to the most in this game since they are so similar in how relentlessly they attack. sadly del negro will probably only play bledsoe 15 minutes.

Take it one loss at a time. The 'Cats have to play the Clippers & Hawks before the Magic

The most interesting head to head in this game will be alley oop dunks Vs 3 pointers made.

Which will there be more of?

My guess is Biz - because Biz takes pride in blocking shots and will go for it regardless.

I am ok with that.

Hey guys! A Clipper fan here and a Bobcats supporter. I saw majority of your games and may I say that they were pretty entertaining! I'm pretty sure this is gonna be competitive with coach Dunlap at the helm. Anyways, good luck to you guys this season (not in this game though lol). Cheers!

:o :o :o :lol: :lol: Strategy for tonights game:
1. Don't warm up much..save energy
2. Start Diop fouling Griffin immediately with Hard fouls..After 1st quarter Diop fouls out
insert Adrien and continue to bang and foul until halftime when Adrien fouls out. Then
play Haywood entire second half continuing to bang and use 6 more fouls to wear their big
men down. Make them pay for playing in the paint every time down.
3.Start Kw on CP3 and sub Sess with real tight defense.
4. Start JT/backup with Hendo with real tight defense on Billups/Crawford 1st half and
sub Gordon at will to wear them down shooting 3's
5. Tell MKG to give us the same stats as Monday.
6. Start Mullins and if he is on let him shoot 3s..otherwise post him up against Griffin and
hope he fouls.
WE CAN WIN THIS GAME

Sessions ins't a good defender though, BobsBuddy.

Moral Victory Checklist:

MKG stays out of foul trouble
Biz plays 26+ minutes
Mullens doesn't embarrass us all with horrific defense
Kemba gets 6+ FTs tonight
Henderson scores 18+ pts
Adrien gets 10+ minutes
Lose by less than 15 pts

I think we can pull out a moral win.

From history and because they are struggling, our best chance for a win will most likely be against the Lakers.

Hornets on December 29th could well be it

With this game I think the Bobcats will stay in touch for a half but the Clippers will pull away

There's no game we can't win. The bobcats of seasons past have always had a knack for winning games they shouldn't at home.

I'm counting the 8th win to be against the Hawks tomorrow but hopefully tonight is one of those nights where the stars are aligned for our Cats. I wouldn't consider tonight's game against the Clippers not winnable but it certainly isn't expected because however they did lose to the Hornets and Cavaliers this season. Not to mention they are coming off a hard fought game versus the Bulls last night so this is the tail end of their back-to-back

We already won a LOT of close games we had no business winning.

Gerald Wallace was the biggest reason for that, as he loves to take the best player on the opposing team. I think MKG is in the same mold.

Who needs Hendo, Gordon or Sessions, when you have Jeff Taylor? :roll:
Humble yourself.
