The Bobcats haven’t won on the road yet. The Bobcats have only won 3 games so far. The Bobcats have looked bad in some of the losses. It’s frustrating because there is no consistency of play and therefore, for me, there is nothing to say “That’s the problem” about. I wish I could say the lineups suck. I would love to say it’s all about injuries. It’s just this very nebulous, questionable, loose, flat way of playing, coaching and being a professional team that …

If you believe in heaven, this could be a match made there, if AI and LB want it to be that way. But if not, well, it could be one made in that other place…the one George Shinn is going to.

We’re done. Stick a fork in us.
Don’t get me wrong, I would love to have the basketball gods prove me wrong and have the Bobcats win their final 5 games while either the Pistons or the Bulls lose their final 5 games, but lets be realists here… That’s not going to happen.
What accepting the Bobcats’ fate does for me now is that allows me to fully reflect on this season without being pulled in a direction by my basketball psyche that’s screaming “We can still do this!!”. After the loss …

This is a big BIG BIG game.  The pregame interviews show that the team knows it.  Need to close the gap with Detroit and get the tie-breaker in case of a tie with the Pistons to end the season.
Cartier Martin makes the start.  My first thought is, not a good idea.  Really though, who else are you going to play?  Go big with Diop and shift everyone up?  Go small with DJ and risk foul trouble for both of your PG’s?  You could start Vlad but I don’t like him …

If you take the win % of Charlotte and add it to the % of games won by Detroit you get .997.  Does that mean these two teams that will face each other tomorrow night at the Palace of Auburn Hill are polar opposites?  Charlotte at .368 and Detroit at .629, ummm I’m going to have to go with yes?  Is yes the right answer?  Well lets look at the history: Charlotte is 4-12 all time against the Pistons, not the worst but close to it.  The biggest most obvious angle is Larry …

Have minutes, will produce: Nazr had a nice
double-double outting in his first game against his former team. In 31
minutes off Charlotte’s bench Nazr scored 19 points, grabbed 13 boards,
and blocked 3 shots. It’s good to see Nazr on a team that really needs
him, and also good to read that he has no harsh feeling towards the Pistons.

Somehow, the Bobcats found themselves playing their third game of the season against the Pistons, despite the fact that we’ve only played some teams in our own division once. I don’t like to look at what’s ahead on the schedule (mostly because I envision them all being blowout losses and then I get depressed), but at this rate we better close out the season by playing Atlanta, like, 5 times in a row.
On the other hand, we’ve now taken 2/3 from Detroit, so go figure. Perhaps at halftime …
