Bobcats vs. Hornets

Taking my 6 year old tonight. Haven't been to a game this year. Can you still pretty much sit anywhere you want due to the place being half empty?

 

I think the seat police are pretty tight this year. I dont think your gonna sit down low if you have an upper deck ticket

Bobcats need to get a win tonight, especially with no Chris Paul.

 

What do you think attendance will be like? 50%? 75%? 95%?

 

I'm a season ticket holder and this was a trade in game, so I got the tickets, and was told it was a heavy attendance game. That probably translates to 60-75% full.

 

The game was announced as a sell out but it wasn't quite full. Good crowd though, definitely the loudest Bobcat crowd I've seen in the arena.

I got there almost an hour early and someone checked my ticket within 5 minutes of sitting down, we were in the second row in the upper deck. Disappointing result but like Larry Brown said, there's a big difference between being good and hoping to be good. Nazr and Diaw had 25 combined in the first half, nothing in the second. Crash looked a little banged up and shot too many 3s, they are still leaving him wide open out there.

Jackson looks imposing in person, his frame really helps him physically dominate a SG. Collison killed us (and kills me because I have Paul on my fantasy team and Collison was already snapped up before I found out about the surgery.)

Loving the Gerald Wallace Action Figure. I need a Stephen Jackson one now.

 

Okafor played his 226th straight game, Chandler missed his 22nd straight with us.....

 

That reminds me, before the game Chandler spent about a half hour shooting around with no boot. Hopefully he comes back soon.

Why didn't Nazr play more in the fourth? He was killing it in the first half. Don't know why we went small against an already small team.

 

Wow. I thought it was about 85% full. Crowd didn't seem into it at all. We left after the 3rd quarter. Found it boring as hell.

 

I don't understand why someone would leave in the second half but you weren't alone.

I'd say 85% capacity was fair, the upper deck was a lot fuller than I've ever seen it in person (I've only been to like 5 Bobcat games.) The most full was two years ago when Steph Curry played against Duke.

I didn't say the crowd compared to the old Hornets crowds but I thought it was pretty entertaining in the first half. Obviously the Bobcats sucked ass in the third so a lot of the enthusiasm left with the way they came out after halftime.

Disappointing.

 

Naz is a better player than he gets credit for. He ought to be in the rotation when/if Chandler comes back. He does not need to be starting though.
