If you had any question how well liked young Stephen Curry is in the Queen City, then that was certainly answered tonight. Returning home to Charlotte as a Golden State Warrior, the rookie received a standing ovation in player introductions and was cheered nearly every time he touched the ball. However, Gerald Wallace, DJ Augustin, and Boris Diaw helped the Charlotte Bobcats ruin his trip home, winning 101-90.

Nights like tonight are when I remind myself why I suffer through losing streaks, ownership issues, bad tv deals, and all the other problems of being a Charlotte Bobcats fan. Being a Bobcats fan means all that, but it also means an annual win or two against the Kobe Bryant-led Los Angeles Lakers, in front of a packed house sprinkled with fair-weather Kobe-lovers, Ric Flair, Bob Johnson, and MJ himself. Tonight was no different, and Gerald Wallace, Stephen Jackson and crew led the Bobcats to a win, 98-83.

The Bobcats vs. the Celtics 3/3/10
I started to worry after one pregame tape I watched in which ‘Cats Coach Larry Brown said Celtics Coach Doc Rivers must be glad to see the Bobcats on the schedule. The Celtics have had difficulties at home losing seven of the last twelve home games. Coach Brown said that the Bobcats must appear to Coach Rivers as a “cupcake” game that would help them get back on track at home. Unfortunately for the ‘Cats, that appears to be exactly what happened. …

I owe Rick Bonnell and apology. The Bobcats have been sold, or rather a controlling interest in the team has shifted from Bob Johnson to Michael Jordan. Details are slow in coming but it appears that Bob’s Cats have become Jordan’s Bobcats.
I am not sure what this means right now. I believe it will grow the sponsorships, I think that it will draw a bit of attention at first and that it’s going to be very interesting for all of us. Michael Jordan is a huge, …

I’m not blogging as much as I’d like and for that I appologize to you, loyal reader.  I started one last weekend but I was interrupted about 30-40 times by my Mother, Father and Niece asking “What are you doing?”  Or rather, when it’s my niece:  ”UN-kle! AN-DRAW!  You come play with my dooooollll-houssssseee?”  She’s 18 and we’re so proud she learned to talk finally (jokes, she’s 3 and the cutest stinkin kid you’ve ever seen).
I have been keeping up with all the goings-on with the Bobcats.  I’m very confused …

The strong showing (1-3 after the All-Star break) continued for the Bobcats as they drop their second game in a row, this one to LAC, (98-94). The team seems to be going in reverse after the All-Star break. Gerald Wallace had another strong double-double with 32 points and 12 rebounds. You might ask “what happened?” Well, what happened was this: 18 turn-overs that led to 21 points for the Bobcats but they were outplayed and out-defended down the stretch. The ‘Cats were also out-rebounded 55-44. …

Ever since we made that strong run in the month of January, we (the fans) have thought that it was a lock that the Bobcats were going to make their first ever playoff run, but with losses last week to the Nets and Bucks along with last night’s loss to the Clippers we are on the outside looking in. Technically we are in an 8th place tie with the Milwaukee Bucks but they hold the tiebreaker and if the playoffs started today, the Bobcats would be making vacation plans.
Somehow, …

Yes everyone, The Cleveland Cavaliers are now owned by “America’s Team”… your Charlotte Bobcats. The fact that we own these jokers is abundantly clear following the Bobcats 110-93 beatdown of the Cavs last night. We’ve beaten them 3 out of 4 games this year to win the season series, and I get the impression that the Bobcats wouldn’t be intimidated in the least to match up with these guys in the first round of the playoffs.  If I were the Cavs, I would avoid these Bobcats at all costs.
How did …

The veteran center from the Spurs will help shore up an injured frontcourt for the playoff push.

The Bobcats have traded for troubled but talented power forward Tyrus Thomas of the Bulls in exchange for Flip Murray, Acie Law, and a future draft pick.

Gather around the tree little children because tonight is one of the holiest nights on the NBA calendar. That’s right kids, it’s Trade Deadline-Eve!
Yes, that time of year when the merry Rod Higgins-Claus slides down the Bobcats’ chimney to deliver all of the goodies that we as Bobcats fans have been waiting for all season. Will we get a brand new power forward that actually likes to rebound and bang? Will it be a shiny new center with a set of healthy feet that does not have a set of …

In a league and on a team historically parched for big men, Nazr Mohammed is showing his worth on offense, defense, and the budget.

There are many good ways to spend a Saturday evening. Unfortunately for us Bobcats fans, none of those ways involved anything that happened in last night’s Bobcats game.
For starters, we had Emeka Okafor come back to town. Emeka is a nice guy, and to be honest with you he was one of my favorite players during his time as a Bobcat. With that being said, it was more than a little bit painful watching him put up 16 points, 7 rebounds, 2 blocked shots and 1 steal while playing solid …

The Charlotte Bobcats vs. the LA Lakers 2/3/10
The Bobcats fumbled away an in-bounds pass with 9 seconds on the clock giving Jordon Farmar a dunk. Flip Murray then hit a long 3 pointer, (needed to tie the score when the Bobcats fumbled their inbound), ending the game with a (99-97) lose to the Lakers. Give the Lakers credit for intense defense against a team that had beaten them the last two visits to their building. The ‘Cats again were led by Stephen Jackson who was the …
