In Charlotte's Web?

  Told ya the blogging could get spotty on occassion. But I must pre game blog for a game that in the past would usually be a walkover. The legacy that is the Bobcats comes to the Key Wed. night. In our current state we can not afford to take ANY team lightly. The Cats seem to match up well w/the Sonics. They are in Sacramento tonight and we'll see how they perform there.

 Seems Cat forward Gerald Wallace just earned Eastern Conference Player of the Week honors, a 1st for any Bobcat player and that includes Okafor. So Wallace seems to be becoming a force to be reckoned with. Emeka O is always trouble and Matt Carroll is a scrapper who ain't pretty but does the job. I actually read his blog on the Bobcats website...a decent read. Its our stellar 5-8 record against Charlotte's almost identical 5-9 before tonights game against SAC.

 My beloved Emerald City ballers (not bawler's, contrary to my last blog) are mentioned in the same breath and same caliber of play as the expansion Bobcats. Depressing, but the cliched "the season is still young" works for me right now. We got some streaks in us. I have an opinion of Weiss' coaching savvy and it is not a good one. McMillan was a motivator and the current Sonic team is in a bit of dissarray I feel.

  We were 0 and 3 last week and we have had a nice little break so lets crush the Cats. Attack the homestand and savor each expected victory. Hang with the tough teams and steal a few in the process. I haven't lowered my expectations of what I think this team is capable of. We are better than we are playing. Was it coaching magic last year and we really do suck? Possible but I don't think so. Cleveland looms but in our house, lets beat them also and be right back in the hunt.

 I'm a Seattle homer who is a little deflated. Plus I hate losing to the Lakers, more than anything. We will comeback, much stronger than the Limp Bizkit reunion. Oh, you didn't hear? Niether did I. And you can take that cookie and stick it...! I'm a little angry too, can you tell? Make it right this week at home Seattle, for my sanity's sake!

Don't be angry that your team lost to the Lakers, hon--they're the LAKERS, for goodness sakes. They're SUPPOSED  to win. Also, after all his snotty cracks about Kobe, it's worth a smile to see Kobe school Ray Allen. Maybe Allen'll keep his silly mouth shut from now on about a player whose sneakers he's not even fit to kiss.
