Game 50: Wizards vs. Bobcats


HeatCheck

Recommended Posts

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?

    • his height, size and arm will forever cause problems and limitations...that is what it is.  I think to a degree, the law of averages is just coming into play a bit with him.  So as he plays more and more, you just flat out get the decent days mixed in too.  Which is just going to happen. 
    • Good point. He's definitely better in 10-15 yards. I think that's his biggest improvement. But he wasn't 3-10 +15, he was 3-7, with at least one drop (minor but still). And with multiple passes at 14 yards completed. This passing chart doesn't look like at By one, lol. He threw more "deep" passes than Mahomes (NOT comparing him to Mahomes in a skill way lol), or at least more beyind 10 yards.
    • Karlaftis and Danna have been pretty inconsistent so teams have been doubling Jones and able to contain their pass rush.   But the good thing is that yesterday, we schemed well against Steve Spags Defense, Canales married the surrounding personnel with his QB through play designs within his comfort zone and was able to get downfield at will.  He was able to execute higher difficulty throws and look a lot more comfortable.  It tells me that Canales has a good system in mind, and had an edge gameplanning wise against Spagnuolo - which is nice to see.  It's a bit to see-saw at times with either going way too pass heavy or way too run heavy, but I think he's finding out what works.  It takes time to have it come together, and sure, I could see regression happen against a better front-7, but this was good for the entire system gelling.
