Game 77: Hawks @ Bobcats

[bLACKpANTHER]

Big game for the Cats to come back home after a tough loss to Chicago, but an even bigger loss of Captain Jack for the next few games. Joe Johnson is expected to miss tonight's game with a sprained thumb- so with both team's best scorer on the bench, the Cats have a much easier game without their leader. This game right here is why the Cats signed Larry Hughes- he needs to step up in the absence of Jack and have a nice scoring night. We also might have Nazr back in the lineup too.

[EDIT] Jack plans on playing tonight vs Hawks

With Toronto @ the Cavs and Milwaukee @ Chicago- 2 teams that the Cats are jocking position for will most likely fall and this would be a huge win! GO BOBCATS!!

I really feel we need this one to bounce back from the CHI loss... Also, I hope we go ahead and wrap a spot up ASAP so Jack can get some rest. I don't feel very confident about our chances tonight, but I'm hoping for the best.

Now that College Ball is done, my attention fully goes towards to the Cats.

Huge game tonight, we play up to the better teams. So I fully expect this team to win.

Let's go Cats!!!!

Same here... Sorry about your lost last night. It hurt me so much I couldn't even watch one shining moment for the first time.. I can even step foot in the college basketball section anymore.

Big big game.... I really want to get into the 6th position in the east. We need a win tonight to do that. I know I am asking for a lot, but more than make it to the playoffs I want to make some noise!!!!

I do not think Joe Johnson will be playing tonight. I heard he was suppose to miss at least 2 games.

So hopefully, the 'Cats can take advantage of that.

Edit: Johnson will not play tonight.

We need to take advantage of JJ not playing. Chicago will also get a break with Bogut out. I have a feeling we'll bounce back and win. We'll see.

Securing a playoff berth will do wonders for the aches and pains.

Yesssssssss!!! No joe johnson hahahahahaha!!!

Bibby might be out tonight too with an ingrown toenail... I think he'll play, but speaking from basketball experience with that injury, it definitely affects how you play...

Last night's one shining moment was one of my favs. Just because we were in it so much. I almost didn't know how to react to the loss, just because I got so use to them winning. Can't wait till next year.

Yea, I want that 6th spot bad, I do not want to play the Magic, I'd much rather play the C's or the Hawks.

Lets go Cats!! Gotta get this one baby.
