If they smash the Hawks next, I will forgive them for this one.

I don't see how people can say that Jackson would have helped us tonight. He's obviously hurt. He's not getting proper push on his jump shot, and it's not stopping him from playing a more conservative game and being more of a distributor. He was 3 for 12 tonight before being pulled. He was a -11 tonight and Hughes was a +1 for what that stat is worth.

Felton was also 4-12 on the night, which was terrible. DJ should have seen more time. Two steals, a dime, and eight points in 15 minutes. 2-2 from behind the arc. Felton didn't have his game tonight, so it doesn't make sense why LB didn't treat him the same as Jackson and give them less minutes.

This team goes as Jack goes and we'll go as far as he takes us. Nobody else on the team is capable of taking over a game the way he can. Conversely, nobody on the team is bold enough to miss as many shots as he does either.

The important thing is that Jack gets some rest because he needs his legs to get under those shots. He didn't have them tonight.

Welp, that was a tough loss, but gotta forget this one and get ready for the hawkies. Really needed Jax in this one, hopefully he'll have his head together and be ready for the Hawks. Cat's are still sitting pretty well, but cant get too comfortable. On to the next one..

Painful game to watch.

So many things went wrong. The Bulls just wanted it more and you could tell that from the tip and the offensive boards. Jackson had an off night. You can say it was the hamstring but last night he was dealing with it and he went off. Also, Felton got absolutely raped by Rose tonight. I am truly hoping we have a spot clinched before the last game vs. Bulls because I have no idea how we will be able to handle the pressure. Bulls have been there before but this team hasn't. Still think we have a better team but it'll be tough last game.

But time to move on get our rest for Tuesday against the Hawks. Good thing we are playing them at TWC Arena because they have been playing well at home.

You almost always lose on the back end of a back to back after playing a physical team into overnight on the front end of the back to back. Just sayin

[Zaximus]

Bobcats lacking a lot of energy tonight. Going into double-overtime last night and then playing on the road against the Bulls, doesn't help.

I hope we can get the win, but I'll be shocked if we do. Chicago is just running all over us and out-rebounding us, simply because they want it more.

Not double over-time, but yeah. No excuses, if they can't make a short plane trip up to Chicago and play then we shouldn't be in the playoffs.

my observations from the game, if it's not apparent now we need jax to beat most good teams ,his off. versatilty and will to win are hard to replace, would like to see crash demand the ball more when we need a basket and would also like to see the cats run some iso with him during certain times during the game. we need to let jax go all out against atlanta and houston and sit him against new orl and detroit
