Nevermind... both Danny Trejo and George Lopez was involved in the interview with big Al.

[Amateur Wannabe]

Hi there, guys! Haven't been here for a while, also missed most of games in the last month
I just wanted to congratulate Bobcats on reaching last seasons 21 win mark so early this season! Great job, especially by managment signing Steve Clifford and Big Al!
Just keep it up, kitties

[MasterIchiro]

the jefferson haters picked a really bad day to try to convince anyone that jefferson made us worse.

A horrific signing indeed. Total panic mode by Cho and co.

[Eoghan]

The Lakers are terrible, they should be contracted. You know they're bad when Kendall Marshall is one of their best players.

It was a game until Jefferson checked out. Hmm...

Jefferson Substitution replaced by Biyombo 00:31.6
00:31.6
[LAL 27-30]

Henderson Free Throw 2 of 2 (8 PTS) 06:51
[CHA 46-34]
06:33 Kelly Hook Shot: Missed
Biyombo Rebound (Off:1 Def:2) 06:32
McRoberts 3pt Shot: Missed 06:15
06:14 Team Rebound
Biyombo Substitution replaced by Jefferson 06:14

Went from a 3 point game to a 12 point game without Al Jefferson. (And the lead immediately shrank to 5 points when he came back in)

i think you are really grasping at straws with that last post BD.

jefferson was +11 in the game, biyombo was -1.

i get everything you are saying about jefferson. over the course of a season or two, it may prove to be correct. jefferson certainly wont be able to sustain his recent level of play. however, i would have a lot more respect for your opinion if you were able to step away from your argument for a few minutes to recognize that jefferson has been unbelievable during the past 10 games and was particularly unbelievable last night.

as much as a despise ben gordon and think he is the worst defensive player in the league and an overall net negative every time he steps on the floor, if he had a run of games where he was averaging close to 30ppg on 50%+ shooting and we were winning games, i would be happy to watch. i most certainly would praise his purple patch.

[KembaWalker]

The whole pessimist shtick is getting kind of pathetic. 40 points/18reb and people are calling him overpaid/overrated and expecting to be taken seriously. Not today

[LamarMatic7]

Al could have scored 50, grabbed 25 rebounds, went back in time during a time-out with a time machine to stop the JFK assassination and Brother Dave would still be on his case about him not saving the other assassinated presidents.

[Eoghan]

All I'll recognize is a torrid pace that is highly unlikely to be sustained. He's throwing up 18 shots a game with under half going in for the year, that's the player he'll return to and that's the player that doesn't move the needle one iota for us. The only reason we're winning now is we keep catching teams without their best players (Chris Paul, Ty Lawson+Galinari+McGee, Kobe+half of the LAL, etc). It's just a star alignment scenario: hot Al + banged up opponents = gonzo stats for Al.

You guys have fun on your roller coaster though.

I'm not exactly on the Al Jefferson bandwagon either but I'll recognize him having a great streak of games.

Yes, we will have fun and enjoy a Bobcat throwing up numerous 30-point games. That's some pessimistic logic you have, my friend. If Kemba had a similar streak, would you also not enjoy it and point out that he's soon returning to his usual 0.42 FG% numbers?

[LamarMatic7]

what the hell was going on in this game thread though!?

Good call, with Ty Lawson and Chris Pauls elite post defense Al would have been totally shut down. What a couple of fraud performances.

zack, jdr and roll tide all apparently took 5 hits of acid earlier in the day and were peaking at the same time during the game. thats my best guess.
