Its still early but it sucks to see Blair and Hill playing the way they are. They have the most trade value so if they continue to suck, one of them could easily be out of here.
You know what they say, hes a magician.

Hopefully RJ can get it going in the second half. He is just 1-5, but has only played 10 minutes.
The Bobcats interior D has been great.
TP is doing it. This is magnificent defense from TP this season. I am very impressed and it's the way I think he can play on D. GREAT JOB this season so far TP.
They need to start attacking and moving the ball more.
If Tony can regain his scroring efficiency, he's gonna be scary...
Blair's actually playing like a #37 pick so far this year...
Spurs were shocked by the defensive energy the Bobcats brought to start the game. If this team has any heart they will out of the locker rooms and step on the Bobcats throats.
I'm not saying that spurs defense has been good based on how much the bobcats have scored.
I'm saying the spurs defense has been good based on what I've actually seen.
For example, I saw blair play excellent defense on one possession, and his man still scored. That doesn't take away from the fact that Blair actually played good defense on that possession, and this is clealry not reflected in the score (since his man ended up scoring anyway).
You're working under the implicit assumption that just because the opponent team scores that it means our team must have played poor defense. This is an incorrect assumption.
We need RJ and Hill to really wake up in the 2nd half...
At least were getting what we paid for.
blair should probably stop starting. mcdyess should replace him since blair seems to be struggling against the starting bigs of the NBA.
Seriously folks, give some credit to Larry Brown. Their play in the first half was no accident, especially on the defensive end. They had a game plan specifically for the Spurs, and it was a good one.
Yeah, Charlotte's interior defense definitely deserves credit.. they are contesting and blocking shots. I don't mind if we take it in and get rejected though, at least we are being aggressive. Manu looks scared to take it in and just keep launching 3's, he looks very fatigued.
lol.. fan in the background...
Yeah, but RJ has played well despite the shots not falling. He has made good decisions with the ball and had good looks. He could easily be 3-5. He played passible defense and rebounded well.
Manu on the other hand put up some nice stats, but really killed the flow and made some bad decisions.
Tim played well except for the decision making. TP has done a very good job on defense and was solid offensively.
Neal played great d on jackson.. neal and anderson need more playing time
Seemed like ginobili was dodging all contact when he would fake a shot.
Spacing. If the Spurs were better spaced the Bobcats couldn't swarm as much. They are packed in too tightly. There are no driving lanes.
Spurs also need to play through Tim more.
We'll be fine guys. Spurs were playing like in the 1st Half and we are only down by four points. And the Spurs have been doing a good job at turning things around and playing much better at the start of the next half. We should come back a lot better in the 2nd.
I think we got this, but they gotta go out there and take it.
Seems we aren't running as effective against them either, that could be there transition defense as well.
Very winnable game. We'll see if the Spurs can buckle up, take care of the ball and up their toughness.
I dont think he looks scared or tired. Hes been able to get to the rim all season but it seems like its only when he really wants to. Otherwise he just launches 3s. I think Pop said easy on the physical drives and ill give you the green light on 3s.
I miss Bon Bon..
