Game 79: Charlotte Bobcats (40-38) @ Boston Celtics (23-55)


Recommended Posts

We have a big game on the road tonight against the Celtics and we cannot afford to overlook them. On paper Rondo, Bradley, Green, Bass, and Humphries looks like a decent starting five and they also have Bayless, Pressey, Sullinger, and Olynyk coming off the bench.

Humphries will test Big Al on the defensive end because in all reality, Humphries is a stretch four playing the five for Boston. If you leave him open, he's capable of knocking down a jumper.

On offense, feed BIG AL!!! There is not a big on Boston's roster (Humphries, Olynyk, Anthony) that can stop Big Al. The key will be to keep MKG at the top of the offense so Jeff Green can't come down to double-team Al, and if Rondo or Bradley decides to help out; Kemba and Hendo need to make them pay.

With Washington playing Orlando tonight, we can't afford a slip up.

Go CATS!!!

Good points - gotta feed Al tonight and let him have a big game.  The Wizards gave him a tough outing, so he's due for a 40-20 night lol.

 

I'm with you on starting Pargo, but we both know that it won't happen.  On the bright side, he will get minutes, and if he has the hot hand, Cliff may leave him in.

    • I agree with this and I think it's worth mentioning too that Bryce is not consistent on his placement and especially velocity and that in large part is driven by his footwork. We all know XL doesn't have the best hands and I don't know that he can overcome that. Cam always had the heater that just hit your hands and sank into your grip, where Bryce has some that are harder thrown, some soft. Bryce stepping into a pass looks so much different than that hop throw thing he does. I think XL really needs to hit the jugs machine and start learning how to catch all these different touch passes. TMac and Coker don't have these issues. If XL doesn't get some work in he's going to be out of the league in the next couple of years. 
    • I think most people like XL from a personal standpoint. I don't think he's stupid either. Although if we are being realistic he is lacking in football IQ at this point in time and it cannot be disputed that he has not taken working on his craft seriously at all times given the body of work on the field. It speaks for itself. I myself have defended him at times given the circumstances of our QB room. But he is now in his third year and 25 years old. We are not in a position as a franchise to go around babying anyone especially first round draft picks. He needs to take his position and his football career seriously or he is going to end up selling used cars somewhere. I hope he realizes this and takes an extended break from social media because that mess certainly isn't going to increase his net worth if he ends up out of the league. And these hanger on types will disappear quick too once that money dries up and it surely will eventually. We'll see how he responds.
