Bobcats Starters

Since no one was assigned to this game. I'll let the fans dictate what should happen in this game.

This road game is a key test. The Babycats have talent, but are not a team. If the Magic stay focused on defense, this will be a blowout. But, this game can be lost.

A win here, and everyone is professing good things again. See what a putative two-game winning streak can do?!?!?

Howard will go off in this game. But to win, Nelson and Arroyo need to be clutch.

It will be interesting to see if Cook continues to be part of the rotation.

Bobcats hace been paying off the wall awesome lately. It will take a good. G.Wall and J.Rich will look to get their 20 + but if we can keep okafor off the boards and Nazr from having a career night i think we will win.

I expect a close game

this game WILL be tough...mark it down...Cats have been hanging in there, Wallace and Rich are combing for like a kajillion points over the last 8 games...Emeka still blows, sadly...but, Nazr, yes, Nazr has been holding them down and Raymond has beel playing "decent"...

we'll see...

Hopefully we'll see this more aggressive attack by Lewis continue tonight, that can only help us.

I think we win this one, but it will be close as charlotte has talent, Howard should have a monster game and hopefully Shard and Cook continue their good play

MagicFan3 · Post #16 » by **MagicFan3** » Wed Jan 16, 2008 9:08 pm

I expect Rashard to play well again tonight, because hopefully now he sees what works best for him.

why cant we adopt the philosophy that other teams have for us? Guard up on their stars but let them do their thing and cover the hell out of the rest of their squad? it's always the other teams bench and role guys that kill us...

Thats a good point. For example the Magic have to keep guys like Mohamed and Carroll in check.

Go Magic!
