Game 40: Trail Blazers vs. Bobcats

[King Taharqa]

Portland is in town tonight to face the Bob's coming off their huge last second win in Detroit. We won our last 2 meetings against the Blazers, but this season they have done well against the East. I dont consider this one a gimme game as the Blazers have a very good young team, but I think we can beat them in front of our home crowd. Should be a good game. GO BOBCATS!!!

I wish we could see Diop against Oden.

Bobcats goin to OT with the Blazers. 9 seconds left in regulation, Larry Brown calls an iso play for Raymond Felton who in turn shoots a contested 20 footer that misses. LOL. Im proud of Ray's big shot against Detroit but I dont understand the logic in him taking last second shots. I feel we should give another 1 of our guys a chance to score at the end of the game.

Bobcats win!

Bobcats win!

3 in a row. 2nd straight win against a winning team. Looks like things are really turning around for this club.

9-8 since Boris and Raja arrived. Maintaining that winning percentage would put them in striking distance of the #7 or 8 seed in the playoffs. Unfortunately they have many more road vs. home games left (six more I think).

This new team makeup really has alot more veteran savy than bobcats teams of the past. Its nice to see things actually seem cohesive and in control on the court. Go Cats!

Even if we don't storm into the playoffs this year, it's good to see that Larry Brown is getting his pieces to play well together.

Augustin is going to come back to help soon enough as well.... that will be an added bonus.

Diop, Diow, and Okafor give us three athletic bigs who can block shots, rebound, and create matchup problems.

Brown seems to be doing his magic here. Making some decent trades, dumping Carroll. If he could get rid of Nazr that would be amazing. Next year we'll be ready to make some noise.

wow... on oden too

this team does look to be playing more controlled basketball im leaning towards thinking Larry is going to try to see this team through contrary to his reputation

LB is doing what he does best: making contenders.

Yup. I really like the way things are shaping up. back to back wins against quality opponents.
