Game 7

Recommended Posts

there is a better chance of dave gettleman completing a marathon than charlotte winning game 7..we had our chance to close it last night and everyone besides Kemba choked

also, why would a key to winning be giving deng open looks when he has been on fire this entire series?!?

I see this going one of two ways:

Pessimistic View: We have a hangover effect from Game 6 and come out flat. Miami is hot again and starts hitting their shots. We try to compete but can never pull it close.

Optimistic View: We come out determined and locked in after lousy showing in Game 6. We realize that we played poorly, minus Kemba, and still came close. This gives us hope that we can close the series out if we can get more out of guys like a Lin or Marvin.

I wish I had a better feeling about this.  I can't help but think back to 2001 when we had the series won at home in game 6, gave that game away, and got bounced in game 7 on the road.

I know this isn't that team of course, but I wonder where the mentality of these guys is.  The announcers during game six said it best, that Charlotte would need to bring everything they had to win that game, and couldn't rely on the home court/crowd just carrying them to the win.

Now backs are against the wall, and maybe our inexperienced team will thrive off of that.  Either way, it's the biggest game the Hornets have played in 14 years, so I'll try to enjoy the moment regardless.

    • i think i go in the opposite direction of most. my ideal retirement is living in some old downtown area in a flat above some shop or something.  life out in the country was just something i got real tired of. My kids actually miss some of living out there, which i understand. that was where they grew up for the most part. 40 acres with a 2.5 acre pond. it was beautiful, but also way too much (and too expensive) for me to keep up with. 
    • FLASHBACK: I remember back when ESPN was just starting--he was their anchor.  They used to show stuff like Rodeo and field hockey--I remember laughing when he went to a commercial mocking a cycling competition in Utah (or something similar--I made that up) and I laughed.  I told my dad, "We may have us a new anchor when we get back from commercial."  When they came back from commercial, Berman was looking very serious and he said, "Any comments by me do not reflect the views of ESPN....The men and women who cycle are dedicated athletes and we are honored to shine light on their sport." (Paraphrasing).  Dad laughed hysterically. My first memory of him--and that was like 1980.
    • Might not have a team without them. Although that probably applies to the Panthers, too.
