Game 49: Hornets vs. Bobcats


King Taharqa

Recommended Posts

For the first time this season, Charlotte's old team will face its new one when the Hornets go up against our Mighty Bobcats tonight at Time Warner Cable Arena. All star point guard and Winston Salem, NC native Chris Paul is out recovering from a knee injury, so rookie point guard Darren Collison will get the start. Collison has played well for NOLA (despite them losing 3 straight since Paul went down) and guys like Peja Stojakovic, former Bobcat Emeka Okafor, and David West have all stepped up in cp3's absence. Tonight the Bobs get to play in front of the home crowd after a long successful west coast road trip. The Bobs enter tonight's contest as the 6th seed in the East and have a chance to build on that tonight. This is a winnable game and Im expecting a HUGE performance tonight with the return of G-Force to the lineup. GO GO BOBCATS!!!

Charlotte All-Star forward Gerald Wallace, who missed the Lakers game with s strained left hamstring suffered late in Mondays 98-79 loss at Portland, practiced Friday and is expected back in the lineup tonight.

"I'm good," Wallace told the Bobcats' Web site on Friday. "I woke up this morning and felt a whole lot better than I did two days ago, so hopefully it won't linger on."

    • Agreed on the last part. They can’t afford to lose all these games with Martin and Perets. 
    • Yes.  And this converts directly to confidence.  Does the coach have confidence to call a deep dig or seam route?  Does Bryce have confidence in his ability to be the Alpha?  Do his teammates have confidence.  About film--when I see Cam Newton's pre-snap confidence vs. Bryce's, it is night and day.   Film--tells you if the WRs are open (why l love watching the Replay telecasts from the end zone cameras--you can see it.  I have seen 2 WRs open and Bryce's eyes are on the outlet WR or the pass rush. )  You can see progressions, and he has improved a bit--but he is very quick to rush through 1 and 2 and checkdown--that is a lack of confidence in his ability to read the defense.  I had a former NFL TE (Deems Maye) who played QB in high school (not sure about college) tell me that the best QBs read the defense by knowing where everyone will be when the ball is to arrive--not where they are.  I think his QB at the time was Humphries.  He said that Humphries would throw the ball into coverage before the cuts etc.  because he understood DB momentum, zone areas, etc.  and he could just see it.  Said so when people say nobody was open, they are usually right because nobody should be "open" when the QB has the ball--when the ball arrives, everyone should be open.  He said Humphries was never "great" but his skills were limited--from a small school--but his ability to read a defense made him never give up on a route.
