    There is nothing funny about losing to the Bobcats.

    Haha. Who the hell am I kidding? Yeah there is! :grin: That'd be sad. :(

    If he has to guard both at the same time, he'd better conserve energy at the offensive end and hand the ball to harden and stand in the corner.

    McHale might have lost the team already. I expect a loss.

    ... unless McHale accidentally comes up with the right substitutions and the players ignore McHale's game plan.

    Regardless of the outcome, things I would like to see (yet will never happen):

    1- Beverly-TD backcourt with meaningful minutes.
    2- Asik-Smith being on the court at the same time for parts of second half or just the 4th Q.
    3- Morris at the SF to see how he performs there.
    4- Rookies getting minutes.

    Lets give dmo and Anderson some time. Harden shouldn't be playing 40,Minutes against Charlotte

    I'm more scared of Ben Gordon. Harden has a propensity to lose his man on the perimeter and doing that with Gordon will be devastating. The guy is a shooter.

    Yeah, this is a trap game, but the Bobcats are no longer desperate for wins. They are 10-30, so it's tanking time for them.

    Hopefully the 8th straight loss, to the 2nd worst team in the league, will convince Morey to finally face the truth and blow up this rotten team.

    Let's hope so. The way we're playing we can only win against a team tanking hard.

    We got our 1 day rest. Rockets should win this one. No more excuses.

    there is ABSOLUTELY ZERO excuses for us to loose this game.

    the guys should be all fired about from the loosing streak, they had a day off to rest, no injuries (at least nothing serious) and the coach should be under some pressure as well. I can not think of a reason how we would loose this.

    We just lost to a bunch of D-Leaguers. I wouldn't be surprised if we lose to the Bobcats. The Bobcats have beaten the Bulls, Mavericks, Pacers, and the wolves when they were still healthy. Didn't we all expect we beat the Wolves on Saturday? Anything can happen. If we do lose, I hope it wouldn't be a blow out. That would be truly embarrassing. :eek:
