Game's not on television, but it'll be interesting to see how they rebound coming off a loss to an 0-18 team. For those wondering, Allen Iverson won't be playing until Monday for the Sixers, so we dodge that bullet for now.

Last time they played the 76ers, the Bobcats completely choked at the end of the game (sound familiar) and couldn't buy a basket. This is a team the Bobcats have the talent to compete with. They're at home on a Saturday, really need this one to rebound after a tough loss.

Elton Brand absolutely destroyed Diaw the last time they played. The sad thing is other than Diaw, we don't have another strong power forward. Brown plays the pf slot but I think he's way too small to guard guys like Brand in the post. I honestly think if we had another conventional PF, Diaw would have already had his minutes cut in half.

How can a guy who is a poor rebounder and poor defender get 40 minutes and only score 4 points (Diaw's total against the Nets)? Pathetic.

Is it just me...or does Diaw seem lost since Raja left? Granted, i havent see many games this year, including tonights, but he doesnt seem as effective as last year.

ed: hah! just read the box score. I knew that would happen! maybe i should stay away from the arena..they play better.

I was at the game, pretty empty, 76ers have like no fans down here so it WAS nice having only Bobcats fans.

Diaw lit it up, was hitting 3's, even had some defense going on. He's odd.

Felton was on the bench for a long time, but instead of Augustin, Brown played Flip. I'll say this right now: Flip is garbage. Guy missed shot after shot. I'm not talking about open shots, I'm talking about stupid greedy shots. He does NOT pass, he's selfish, and I don't know why he gets to play over DJ, it's stupid.

Also, Gerald Henderson needs to play more. Guy is good. Had a nasty block and a nasty dunk in short time.

I wish we'd run Nazr at C and Chandler at PF. Diaw can be a sixth man, if he don't like it, fine.

We won but we need to get to a point where we always beat teams like this, no questions.

id rather start chandler, i understand that nazr is playing bettr and i completly agree, but if we bring naz into the starting role, who will score off the bench? we need some scoring off the bench, plus he cant handle starter min so whats it mattr? now i do think at end of games he should be in there instead of chandler, but at the start? who cares..... id rathr have the points from the bench

ex.... who thinks roger mason should be benched for manu (spurs)?

I wanna see Nazr start over Tyson. Also, more UPS and Hendo and LB needs to stop being a prick and play DJ and bench Flip.

Its not like DJ has been tearing it up this year, in fact he is probably the biggest dissappointment on the team right now imo.

But I do agree that he should get more playing time to work through the slump he is in.

      Slowing my roll on Ward (for now)

      Him and Sanders are the only QBs I would consider in the first round. I won’t be upset if we take Sanders, unlike some people on the board. Both have potential to be really good NFL QBs if the teams can develop them.  But as we have seen teams are not willing or are unable to now properly develop rookie QBs.

      I remember the last time we had a Cam at QB in Charlotte

      Because Young is so historically bad that it just skews too far outside the normal deviations that perspective is easily lost. That or they just don't want to believe it.  The struggles last year would have been more about the infighting and poor roster building or idiot owner's hiring practices than with Stroud. He wouldn't have been as good but he wouldn't have been ruined here and the pressure was not Carr-esk if you take out the Young created portion from his playing style.  Dude is a young guy on a team coached by a Defensive guy building a good D but not building up the O in year 2 of his HC 1st time gig. Seems familiar... Go look at his output this year and not just some crappy Thursday night implosion game, I would take that in a second and never ever look back every time without a shred of doubt while eating 4 of those games a year with a giant smile on my face.
