Win.

Bobcats are 4 games behind in the L column & will be 5 games behind in the L column at the end of the evening.

Must win. We have a home and away with the Bobcats sandwiched between a home game against the C's and a game at Dallas. The Cats have Portland and Houston sandwiched between these games. If we go 4-0 in these 4 game span we all but gaurantee ourselves a top 6 seed. The game at Dallas won't be easy though.

Two games back of the Bulls who have a home and away against the Sixers in there - 2 easy wins and a home and away against the Pacers - two tough games.

Half game back of the Wiz who have four game west coat trip at Sacramento, Portland, Lakers, Denver. They should drop one, the Portland one and hopefully another maybe the Denver game.

Every game matters. This team is a much better home team. It would be such a boost to have home court in the first round.

every game until we have a 1+ game lead over the 5 seed is must win. we arent advancing in the playoffs without home court.

if we play like we have been we should win. guys seem to be playing hard, if we play hard we are a tough team to beat

OT--- Any possible way we can look into acquiring Al Jefferson for the remainder of his contract. He has an opt out clause in 2015/2016. He is having a tremendous season in terms of FG%, Rebounding, and scoring. He is a 20/10 guy.... Only question is, does anyone know how he is defensively? I would assume he is a realistic target.

Jefferson actually knows how to post up and has moves in the post. There was a point in his career where he was legitimately the best back to the basket player in the NBA.

He also rebounds.

Defensively I don't think he's anything special.

Al Jefferson will have a 20-20 game, Brook it.

Well Washington lost tonight so here's a great opportunity to get out of Miami's way in the second round

We did a really good job on Al Jeff last time. I bet he comes out with something to prove. I'm sure we'll be doubling him very hard. Not excited to see Plumlee and his inexperience against Jefferson on the block often. We'll be ready for that though. It's the only thing to worry about with Charlotte.

I would love to see a big game from Deron. Kemba is a small-ish PG. The type of PG he used to bully down low back in the day (last year). Would love to see us run some stuff for Deron in the post. Charlotte doesn't really have shot blockers either.

Just like that, we're only 2.5 games back from the Division and own the 5th seed again.

This is a must win game. Charlotte faces Houston and Portland after before facing us again, Washington faces Portland and Phoenix, Toronto faces New Orleans, Oklahoma, Atlanta and Chicago has Philly, Indiana, Philly, Indiana, Portland.

It really doesn't get any more favorable than that. We cannot drop the ball this week if we want the Division and HCA.

How would we get him?

He is the bpbcats best player and on a good contract for them and they arent tanking. Jordan wants to win, he wont dump him unless it makes them better

It's going to be tough to catch the Raptors since we really need to make up 3.5 games, finish with a better record, because they're going to win the tie breaker. They have a really soft schedule from here on out.

Hopefully, Davis puts up another 40/20 game and the Pelicans can beat the Raptors on a back to back tonight.

And King is such a moron. Davis was worth tanking for, but instead we trade for Gerald Wallace with the intention of winning a few more games so we'd have less of a shot of getting him and give up a first round pick in the process when we could've just signed that bum in the offseason.
And people think King isn't dumb enough to trade Brook for a player whose contract runs past the summer of 2016.

Kemba has had some big games againsy us and is the speedy kind of pg gaurd that gives us trouble. Cant take him lightly

I feel overall at this point in the season the Bobcats shouldn't be taken lightly... But on the otherhand, if we can bring the energy we've had of late (and if AK plays) I see us snagging a solid win. Our defense is still growing and Plumlee is learning to really play his starting role strong.

My only fear is that Kemba uses his size and speed to poke holes in our D.

This is a game that needs lock down D no matter what

Concerned about how we're going to guard Jefferson. Kemba is also lightining quick. Other than that, this Should be a win.
