Tonight's game at Time Warner Cable Arena is against a division opponent in the Washington Wizards. While in the grand scheme of things this game isn't make or break, it sure feels like a game we've got to have. After coming off a demoralizing loss to the Hornets after leading by 10 at half, we have to come out strong and beat a team we're supposed to beat. Wizards are on a high after coming back from 19 in the third quarter in their last game against the Magic to secure a 92-91 win.

In other news, Tyson Chandler could make his return tonight. He has been out since before Christmas and is looking to get back in the rotation. Although Larry Brown stated he wouldn't be starting tonight, he could see some minutes coming off the bench. Brown also stated that he sees Tyson starting once he gets back into the swing of things, which sucks for Nazr, who has performed well up to this point. With or without Chandler, this game is one we got to have. Go Bobcats!

This is the second meeting (of 4) between these two teams. Bobcats won convincingly back in late November 92-76.

Game is at 7 pm. No TV for tonight's game, so the only way to watch this one is in attendance or through League Pass.

Great write up on the game radio killer. And I agree, tonight is a MUST WIN. I want to see us go into the break above .500. GO BOBCATS!!!

Thanks man, and yes we need to win these next 2 to get above .500.

Also, did you make that Jax icon/avatar? If so, is there anyway you can make me a Wallace one if you get chance?

      Gameday Thread: KC-CAR

      By mav1234 · Posted

      KC has a very good defense this year. It is 5th overall. Yes, still worse than last year, but their offense is considerably worse. Their passing D may be their "weakness" but they still allow fewer than 20 ppg. BY completed several deep passes yesterday, and he was able to threaten downfield in ways he didn't seem capable of before the benching. I'm not necessarily worried about his ability to connect deep anymore. What to me was impressive was that he did all this without a run game. We used the pass to set up what little running success we had. Wild.

      Bryce developing before our eyes

      By Bear Hands · Posted

      Solid and fair assessment.   I will say, one of the big things I noticed yesterday was that he wasn't shy to step up into the pocket in the face of pressure.  He's trusting the IOL.  And they took care of Chris Jones yesterday.  We had clean pockets but also good success rate vs. pressure which just hasn't been the case with Bryce.   If he has more confidence the OL gets it done and he can navigate and step up for throws, that's huge.  It's one of the biggest things that's held him back.  He was previously bailing quickly and just too easily throwing away or making dead plays.     He was finding his 2nd to 3rd reads within structure/without bailing in the pocket.  That was nice to see, as much concern I have with him.  And the overall limitations will always be there. Time to back it up this week against the Bucs.

      Some Thoughts on Our Remaining Games

      By 45catfan · Posted

      Suddenly the Cowgirls look like our best chance for a win remaining. I think the Bucs are playing better than the Falcons of late.  Our lone game versus the dirty birds is in the ATL where we always struggle.  The Cardinals are marginally better than I thought they would be. We are not beating the Eagles, they are starting to roll. I'm saying two at most, next week at home versus the Bucs and the Cowgirls.
