Can you believe this? The Bobcats defeated the Heat 94-92. The Centers had huge games, Shaq with 26 and 16, and Brezec had 27 and 11. Apparently Jones missed a shot to tie the game, and Wade got the ball and got fouled with 4 secs left, and he made the first, missed the 2nd (not sure if it was intentional; it shouldn't have), and he got his own rebound and missed a 23 foot jumper at the buzzer. It reminds me of the Raps expansion season when they beat the Bulls...of course the Heat or not close to those Bulls, but it's comparable. Huge confident pbooster for the players.
Of all teams, you wouldn't expect the Bobcats to beat them, but it happens, I remember a few years ago when Denver sucked, they had some pretty good wins, and the Hawks last season too. Brevin Knight is really making himself look like one of the best passers in the league, I know Nash is beating him in APG, but look at his team, and his assist to turnover ratio is also better. this guy is really getting back in the scene. This is not a hindsight situation, but I actually wanted the Raptors to sign him last off-season, I thought he was a good bargain PG, but no one seemed interested. He's a FA again after this season though.
I just saw the highlights, and it looked like Wade missed the FT intentionally, and got his own bored at around the FT line, and for some reason, he dribbled quickly to the the corner and launched a 3. Did he think they were down by 3? I didn't see why he had to miss the FT in the first place, and then he gets his own bored and goes outside and attempts a 3. Not good awareness at all right there. Reminds me of Chris Childs a few years ago, kinda, except Wade is not a dopehead, and it isn't in a playoff game. Oh well, today we realized that Wade is human too... Okafor injured his ankle after landing on Shaqs foot. He left the game, didn't return (not posistive on that). But who needs Emeka when you got Ely?
heh, i remember that. Big boys had some huge blocks. Bulls always give the Lakers a hard time for some reason. Of course, Bulls are just a better team than LA now.
when when i first saw the score on NBA.com I checked another website to make sure it was correct. DAMN!!
Like Van Gundy said, we didn't deserve to win but Charlotte did and I agree with him. We played poor defense and let them have their night. I don't know what Wade was thinking but we only needed 2...Oh well what's done is done and I hope that our guys have learned a good lesson from tonight's loss. And wade also to remember the score and shoot 2 when you don't need 3. Props to Bobcats and good luck in your future.
wow i had a great night for my teams!!!!! first my pistons beat the celtics wich are my best friends favourite team so i get to rub it in his face and now the bobcats, an expansion team beat the allmighty heatthis is too good
I was watching Cold Pizza the other day and I think it was Woody Paige who was talking about how the Cats` have really came out and suprised the NBA because they were sometimes hard to beat with their players such as Okafor, Wallace, Knight, just to name a few. But like I-Miss-MJ said, these things do happen.
