Site: Bobcat Arena (Charlotte, NC)
Date: December 6th, 2008
Time: 12:00 PM EST

Opposing Team: Davidson College (5-1)
Location: Davidson, North Carolina
Nickname: Wildcats
Conference: Southern Conference
Head Coach: Bob McKillop, former assistant at Davidson, coached HS teams in New York
Last Game: 78-48 W vs. Loyola (MD)
Leading Scorer: Stephen Curry (29.2 ppg), (35 ppg if you discount the last game where he was doubled-teamed the whole time)
Leading Rebounder: Andrew Lovedale (10.7 rpg)
Assist Leader: Stephen Curry (7 apg)

Easily the toughest game of the season so far. Only loss this season was to a very good Oklahoma squad.

Keys to the Game: This one is easy; contain Stephen Curry. I don't mean contain him as in double-team him the whole time even when he doesn't have the ball. Fells seems like the ideal defender but he's going to have to play tight the whole game and stay out of foul trouble. This team can definitely shoot so look for a man-to-man defense most of the game. We need to keep going inside with McCauley and Smith as they have been very productive the last couple of games. I'm still waiting on Costner and Williams to show their stuff and begin playing like starters.

Didn't we have Degand when we beat them last year?

What are the odds we get him back for this one?

I will be the heart of the Davidson section. My mom is a season ticket holder for Davidson bball and the lady she sits next to is a State grad. I grew up going to Davidson games and was the waterboy when I was 7. This game is tough for me because I know both teams. I need an injury free game please.

^just hope Johnny Thomas doesn't see the floor.

I like the guy, but I keep thinking he'll descend from a jump and bust his legs like Kyle in that one episode of South Park.

Nice should tailgate for both. If you know where i can find the cheapest ticket possible for the davidson game that would be awesome. Of course I already have my MNF ticket.

Driving into work this morning the radio said that there were still good seats available and to go to Davidson's athletic page to order. You'd probably have to do either will call or print the tickets out on your own.

Davidson's site just links you to ticketmaster, where you cannot find a lower level seat...not surprising though since the tickets went on sale 2 months ago...you can still find midcourt seats in the upper leavel though...$25 + convenience/processing fee

It'll likely be Javi vs. Curry, which is kind of scary. In his defense, he's got incredibly quick hands, which might lead to some deflections, steals,etc. We've just got to be sure we help out when Curry gets around him on the penetration (and he will get by him fairly often I'm sure).

^where are you getting that from? If you are basing that solely on the fact that both Javi and Curry play PG then you are retarded. I would assume that since Fells is our best defender that Fells will guard their best player.

If you're going to make a comment like that, seems like you'd follow it with your opinion of who is.

Harris?

Horner?

Last year we had to trade off on who guarded him, and that is likely what we will do this year. It's because whoever is on him gets run ragged chasing him all over the floor and having to constantly fight through screens. You can't stick just one guy on him for a whole game.

i am going and damn excited about it. i was born and raised in davidson so i am very excited about going. i will be cheering on my pack and just happy to see two teams i like play each other. i have been to a concert at bobcats area but not a bball game so i am excited about that. should be a hell of a game. i assume fells will start on curry. he is our best transition defender so i hope he doesn't get into foul trouble since curry scores so much in transition. should be an awesome game.

It's been like that for a few months. I ordered my tickets well over a month ago and they are midcourt upper level but just a few rows up. I don't think Time Warner Cable Arena's seats are as high as the upper portion of the ACC. The point is that you would be there supporting the Pack. So what if you aren't courtside right behind the opposing team's bench. It's basically Davidson's home game. They get priority for their season ticket holders and students. They will have a student section there behind one of the baskets.
