The Mighty Bobcats will travel to the Staples Center tonight to face the defending champion Los Angeles Lakers. Going up against the Lakers always seems to bring out the best in the Bobcats and Im expecting no different tonight. The Bobs are not afraid of the bright lights & stars of Hollywood and have played well in their last few visits to Staples. The Lakers are led by Kobe Bryant, future HOF 2 guard who just passed Jerry West as the Lakers all time leading scorer. The Lakers big men, Gasol, Bynum, & Odom can be a force in the paint, so if we dont get a big game from our frontcourt, we have no chance tonight. After getting beaten soundly by the Blazers 2 nights ago, I want to see us bounce back and play one of the NBA's elite as tough as we can on their home floor. GO BOBCATS!!!

I have been looking forward to this one all season. We have owned the Lakers in the last 3 or 4 years but the matchups were always in our favor. Raja could give Kobe fits and I am interested to see how Jax will do in this system against him. Artest has been problematic for us every time we play him so Gerald will need all of that intensity.

The Gasol/Bynum tandem will be hard to guard against too without a premiere 5 defender. Boris needs to stay out of foul trouble or else their big lineup could pose problems. It would be awesome if Tyson could play tonight! Go Cats!

      Bryce Young is the worst QB in Panthers History

      By jb2288 · Posted

      agree to disagree you are entitled to that opinion even though I find the argument completely bizarre based on data. I could type out a long paragraph discussing those areas but what’s the point. I posted a screenshot that showed Bryce in a similar post snap situation with a free rusher in his face which resulted in a TD - that’s what happened on the play so I posted it.

      I've already addressed this notion in a previous reply. You are basing your assertion outside reality if you think Bryce would have not only been more successful but defeated the Patriots in place of Herbert. Bryce got blown off the field by that Patriots team with the highest paid OL in the league. We've seen Bryce with an OL that gave up 65 sacks and it resulted in the #1 pick. And that is not a defense of Herbert or arguing he is a great QB in any way. He has physical talent but he has been similar to Darnold early in his career in terms of his very up and down perfomances. However that does not change the fact that they have significantly less invested in the OL than the Panthers.

      This Bryce Guy (General BY Discussion)

      I think Tepper has been setting the stage where pending there is no miracle he wipes it all clean.  Think you already have been told that with small things like Evero staying.  Bryce is the guy next year.  OC, DC, everything stays the same.  QB room largely the same.  Nothing would really matter there.  They basically get one more shot and it goes how the schedule paired with our 27th ranked O predictably most likely goes.  Everyone out the door together.  Bryce is a bridge tier QB.  I don’t see Dave surviving where he could be bridge QB here in reality.
