Games 14 + 15: Home and Home VS. New York Knicks


Panthers128

Recommended Posts

Ouch, this is a huge loss. Gonna be a long year for the Bobcats.

The defense this year isn't good enough and I'm not sure why. The team is leaving wide open shooters on the perimeter and there isn't as much hustle. Gerald Wallace has probably missed 4-5 layups and dunks the past couple games. He's been in a slump.

DJ and Thomas are starting to become better players but we're not winning games. Confuses me.

This team is hard to watch.

I think at this point coaching is losing us the game. Our defense game-plan is bad, as in, we're getting crushed by teams shooting the 3 over and over, game after game. We just don't have enough shooters on our team to counter that.

We lack a go-to scorer. The Knicks have Amare at the end to finish plays, we have, nobody.

When just ONE of our guys is off (Wallace) we barely put up enough points. We need a legit scorer, and until we get one, we're going to keep winning a TON of games by less than 5 points.

Props to Thomas, who had an amazing game, and showed what he can do with enough minutes. Props to DJ for continuing his assist-to-turnover goodness. Jax was good enough tonight for the most part, other than a really bad 3 attempt late in the game when he tried to shoot over someone. He's open SO much but his shot takes like 10 seconds to develop so he can never let fire.

I'm kind of ready for a new coach, I think Brown is amazing at practices and developing players, but when it comes game type, I question the things he does.

We kept our 2nd team out there WAY too long, they were getting crushed. We should not have Caroll on the team, he's horrible, if he isn't even making shots it's pointless to have him on the court.

Add another 15+ scorer to this team and our record is a lot different than it is right now.

I don't think we'll make playoffs this year, but we'll come close.

Caroll is trash and is way overpaid. He's a shooter that doesn't make his shots and someone we don't even use correctly. The fans get all excited cause they see a white guy go onto the floor.

We have HORRIBLE perimeter defense and it's killing us. Teams easily knock 10+ 3pt's on us nightly. We just can't compete with that.

Sorry for jumping in late, just finished watching on DVR. I had to double-check, I was sure I was watching a different game, since so many Bobcats games follow this same pattern - start slow, dig a hole, frantically play catch-up, get the crowd in a lather, run out of gas in the last minute, lose game.

To see guys like DJ and Tyrus lighting it up, but then hot and cold Jack is frustrating, plus Crash is way off his game. I used to say that no way is Gerald "touchable" in a trade scenario, but if it could get us a wing who is a clutch scorer, then I don't think I would have a problem with that. I don't have anyone in mind, but this team lacks an offensive spark-plug. You have to give in order to get.
