Keys To The Game:

Rebounding: The Bobcats have to keep the Hawks off the offensive glass Brezec and Ely are gonna have to step up Zaza is a machine on the offensive glass box him out and dont let the Hawks get second chance points.

Defence: In the last two wins the Bobcats have held their opponents to under 85 points per game and making them shoot under 41% they have to keep that up with there top 2 scorers injuried and not playing.

Good Start: The Hawks are a young team like the Bobcats if the Bobcats can get the Hawks down early they may shake their confidence and get an easy win if the Bobcats dont let up in the game.

------------------------------------------

Prediction:

This can go either way the Bobcats can get an easy win or get blown out by the Hawks its a matter of how they come out to play.
