Game's not on television, but it'll be interesting to see how they rebound coming off a loss to an 0-18 team. For those wondering, Allen Iverson won't be playing until Monday for the Sixers, so we dodge that bullet for now.

Last time they played the 76ers, the Bobcats completely choked at the end of the game (sound familiar) and couldn't buy a basket. This is a team the Bobcats have the talent to compete with. They're at home on a Saturday, really need this one to rebound after a tough loss.

Elton Brand absolutely destroyed Diaw the last time they played. The sad thing is other than Diaw, we don't have another strong power forward. Brown plays the pf slot but I think he's way too small to guard guys like Brand in the post. I honestly think if we had another conventional PF, Diaw would have already had his minutes cut in half.

How can a guy who is a poor rebounder and poor defender get 40 minutes and only score 4 points (Diaw's total against the Nets)? Pathetic.

Is it just me...or does Diaw seem lost since Raja left? Granted, i havent see many games this year, including tonights, but he doesnt seem as effective as last year.

ed: hah! just read the box score. I knew that would happen! maybe i should stay away from the arena..they play better.

I was at the game, pretty empty, 76ers have like no fans down here so it WAS nice having only Bobcats fans.

Diaw lit it up, was hitting 3's, even had some defense going on. He's odd.

Felton was on the bench for a long time, but instead of Augustin, Brown played Flip. I'll say this right now: Flip is garbage. Guy missed shot after shot. I'm not talking about open shots, I'm talking about stupid greedy shots. He does NOT pass, he's selfish, and I don't know why he gets to play over DJ, it's stupid.

Also, Gerald Henderson needs to play more. Guy is good. Had a nasty block and a nasty dunk in short time.

I wish we'd run Nazr at C and Chandler at PF. Diaw can be a sixth man, if he don't like it, fine.

We won but we need to get to a point where we always beat teams like this, no questions.

id rather start chandler, i understand that nazr is playing bettr and i completly agree, but if we bring naz into the starting role, who will score off the bench? we need some scoring off the bench, plus he cant handle starter min so whats it mattr? now i do think at end of games he should be in there instead of chandler, but at the start? who cares..... id rathr have the points from the bench

ex.... who thinks roger mason should be benched for manu (spurs)?

I wanna see Nazr start over Tyson. Also, more UPS and Hendo and LB needs to stop being a prick and play DJ and bench Flip.

Its not like DJ has been tearing it up this year, in fact he is probably the biggest dissappointment on the team right now imo.

But I do agree that he should get more playing time to work through the slump he is in.

      This is what I mean. I am not some huge BY fan. I honestly don't look at QBs the way a lot of you guys do. Right or wrong, I've always looked at them as just another cog in the machine. Didn't want BY or even a trade up for a QB in 2023. We saw in the Super Bowl how important the rest of the team is on any given Sunday. Now... so PFF, who has no reason to prop up BY, says he's first in 2 stat lines and Panthers "fans" are arguing why it's either wrong or a made up stat just to make BY look good. Even though they have multiple stat lines where he's literally last in. Like 32nd in the NFL. Some he's even lower than 32. Take a step back. Try to objectively self analyze. This is just not sensible.  Same thing I see with other teams' fans and their QBs though. We analyze every single throw on every single play. For every other QB, most here are only using highlights to judge. Makes a difference. We saw Stafford miss throws when they played Carolina - both games. We saw Love throw crap up when they played Carolina. We saw Dak miss throws when they played Carolina - and Pickens was putting on a SHOW. We saw Josh Allen win a game with 163 yards passing against Carolina, but if BY does it he's crap and can't pass for 200 yards. Gents... come on.

      None of us think we're contenders this season but no reason we're doomed to 5 or 6 wins either. Dan has to have another 2025- like draft class and at least 2 key free agent signings. We're not Seattle but they don't win without 5 starters from their last 2 draft classes and Darnold and Lawrence in free agency.  Alas,  we'll have to wait one more season for a QB upgrade.
