Playoff Game 1: Charlotte Bobcats @ Miami Heat

[Alcatraz49ers]

Charlotte is gonna surprise some people in this series. The 0-15 record vs Miami is irrelevant, that was before Big Al. Charlotte barely lost 2 games this year by what 1-2 points? Both games they probably should've won.

Miami won't blow them out.

Would be nice to push them to 6. Then MJ can say looky here Memo, we're for real. Come put us over the top.

You wanna see LeBron rip up his contract & run to LA? Push him to 6 then sign Melo.

I really wish JT was healthy.

There is going to be time in this series when MKG gets two early fouls and we are going to have no one to guard LBJ.

I wonder if Coach Cliff would ever consider going zone for that period.

[Brooklyn Bully]

Heat in five.

 

Nets in seven.

 

As for how you played the Heat in the regular season, the Playoffs are a different beast.

[Riverboat Ron]

Can't wait for us to sweep the floor with the Heat in 4...

All the more reason to give us a chance.

Everyone starts out 0-0, that benefits the underdog Bobcats who have absolutely NOTHING TO LOSE.

Game 3 is next Saturday. The hive is about to swarm!!

My seats are a coup,e of rows behind the Heat bench and I'm gonna let them have it.

How about push them to 6 and then sign Lebron.

Michael and LeBron do not seem to like each other at all. On the other hand, Melo is a Jordan Brand guy.

This might be trivial, but it's something that irks me. Why do people insist on calling our arena, as well as the old coliseum back in the day, "the hive" and want honeycomb courts/uniforms again?

Bees make hives, hornets make nests. There are also no honeycombs in a hive. I get the general idea, but it is really stupid if you think about it.

I should start a campaign to get people to call TWC the "the nest." Knowledge is power.

Cliff will have them prepared to play their best basketball. They won't play scared. We have to defend them well. If we do that, that will give us a chance to get a win which would give them confidence

It's basketball, not a science class.

LeBron is still a mental midget. He's also a whiny bitch now from playing with Wade & Bosh.

If the team doesn't play scared & smacks Miami in the mouth it will get interesting.

It's still fuging dumb as hell. It also isn't science that hornets don't make honeycomb hives.

[Omega Atrocity]

The Heat are only 11-14 since LeBron dropped 61 on us. I don't think it's a given they "flip the switch" or whatever dumb analogy you want to use.

If you study particular animals (i.e. the Hornet), it is indeed a science.

 

As for the reasoning of the nickname, "The Hive" flows, it sounds like a cool nickname for an arena... "The Nest" not so much; maybe if we were the Charlotte Blackbirds or something similar it would work.
