Well last night didn't go as planned, but fortunately we have a quick turnaround and an opportunity to put last night behind us and move forward. Hopefully whatever was wrong with Batum will be sorted out and he'll be good to go come gametime.

There's not much difference this year from the 2 seed to the team that will get a crack at Ben Simmons.

Win-win

The Raptors are well-rested.

Hopefully the book is not out on how to defend the new-look Hornets by jumping the perimeter passing lanes.

Biz vs Cody is going to be such an interesting matchup for us to watch, but not half as interesting as Biz vs Jefferson would have been.

We need to find some offense in the paint or FT line, either post ups, fast breaks or drives to the rim. We got none of that last night and settled for passes around the perimeter and contested jumpers. We can't just rely on getting hot from 3pt line to win.

Only six hours until tip and still no word on Batum.

TinmanZBoy · Post #11 » by **TinmanZBoy** » Thu Dec 17, 2015 6:04 pm

even with Batum, I am worried with starters' d, just too loose...

When was the last time we had 5 or more pts lead after first quarter? Starters need to step up.

From TOR forum, "Honestly, I'd feel better in the playoffs against the Warriors, Cavs, West All stars, or the Monstars than Charlotte." What is that about?

we usually beat them. we beat them twice in the 7 win season lol.

but this time we dont have Gerald Henderson, who usually turns into prime Kobe against the Raps lol.

I expect Biz to crush us for 20/20 then RKO Kaminsky before leaving the arena

Trivia question for the day: what is Biz's career high in points?

Batum is doubtful. Jeremys will have to step it up if he doesn't go. Don't know which one will start.
