Game 64: Clippers vs. Bobcats

Recommended Posts

Bobcats will face the Los Angeles Clippers tonight at the "Cable Box." We've now won 4 straight and look to be hitting our stride at the right time. Last month we faced the Clippers in LA and lost in convincing fashion. 6 Clippers reached double figures in that game and we did a poor job of defending overall. Tonight, I expect a much better performance from our guys at home. You also must consider the fact the Clippers have lost 8 straight on the road and 20 of their last 22, making this a "winnable" game for our Bobcats. We need to maintain the momentum we've built over the past week and continue to move up in playoff seeding if possible. GO BOBCATS!!!

Tonight at 7:00 the Bobcats face a Clippers team that has lost 5 in a row. I remember last game we played Clippers we lost a close one but it didn't need to be. The Clippers are a team we should beat and we need to make sure they get their 6th straight loss. It wouldn't shock me if the Clippers run zone against us considering that we take a while to get used to it. But regardless of what they throw at us the Bobcats need this win at home. Go Bobcats!

Gonna have to record this one since I'll be on my way to Asheville.

By the way, was the HD channel (TWC) for anyone else TERRIBLE during the Heat game earlier in the week. I ended up watching most of it on the regular FS channel.

It was fine for me, I wish more were HD. But who knows with TWC, there always seems to be some kind of problems.

    • A team should always be putting at least one or two draft picks in at tackle and guard each season. Those guys just don't last nearly long enough and those that do get very, very expensive. In our situation, we need a little more time to see what the Icky injury works itself out to. Njiman performed really well out there and if this injury lingers into the next season, then he might do well enough there to hold the line for the team. Or we could draft early if there is a stud LOT in the draft when our spot comes along.  Honestly, we may be looking at replacing both LT and RT this season at this point. Moton is getting long in the tooth and while he deserves a shot to go for a playoff run with this team, I don't know whether we will really see him come back next season yet. It's still so darned early in all of this to say.
    • Because we had a ton of things go our way this year and made the playoffs with a -70 point differential.  This year was the outlier.  Regression to the mean is unavoidable.  So the team will have to significantly improve to beat 8 wins next year.
    • One thing I noticed in this game (and I say this as the biggest of Bryce Young haters) is that Bryce did do a solid job of throwing into voids in this game, and leading receivers on crossers.  There were a few times where I was thinking "where the hell is he throwing it" only for a receiver to appear out of nowhere and catch it in stride.  Mike McDaniel might be a guy that can squeeze a little bit of production out of the otherwise ghastly Bryce Young. His offenses heavily feature that style of passing game.  I've heard Idzik is drawing interest from other teams.  If so, bringing McDaniel in at OC would be a stellar move.  I know it'll never happen, but fun to think about.
