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 …

Last night the Bobcats defeated the Cleveland Cavaliers 94-87 and extended their win streak to 3 games. In the process Gerald Wallace had a gianourmous game. He dropped 31 points, 14 rebounds, 3 steals and 1 posterization on the Cavs.  Speaking of that posterization that Lebron wound up on the wrong side of, It seems to be twitterverse approved. This is what they had to say about it:
Jay_Chips LeBron got Od’ed on by Gerald Wallace,lol
TEARS_OF_FIRE LeBron got yammed on by Gerald Wallace….WHEW, BUDDY!

In case you didn’t get a chance to see last night’s pre-season game,  here are a few highlights for you to enjoy.

Even though the Cats lost, there were a couple of positives to take away from this game.

Gerald Wallace was solid with 18 points and 5 boards in only 18 minutes.
Alexis Ajinca had a one man coming out party ( no, not this kind of coming out) with 15 points, 7 rebounds. 2 blocks in 18 minutes off the bench.  He also did most of his work in the paint …

Updates from the first three preseason games, why you can’t listen to the games online at WFNZ.com, and more!

Anyone that didn’t get goosebumps when they watched this last night should have their NBA fan card immediately revoked.
This was truly Amazing.

Lebron James should be illegal, or at the very least he should be monitored as a controlled substance and only be allowed contact with other basketball players under the most critical conditions. 
If you’re a Bobcats fan, watching these highlights may cause dizziness, blindness and sporadic vomiting… You’ve been warned.
If you’re a Cavs fan your only concern with watching these highlights is having to watch your team in quite possibly the ugliest throwback uniforms in the history of ugly throwback uniforms.  Seriously, What the Hell was that on the front of …

Gentlemen…
I’ll be liveblogging tonight’s game versus the Cavs. Despite an unimpressive preseason record and a gaping chasm at power forward, I’m still filled with optimism going into tonight’s game and into the season. The reason for the optimism is simple Larry Brown > Sam Vincent. If you wan’t to get technical, I guess you could even say (Larry Brown + anyone with a pulse ) > ( Sam Vincent + Jeff McInnis).
As we like to say around BobcatsPlanet “In Larry Brown I Trust”.
Tip off will begin shortly, Let the …

Charlotte BobcatsLast Years Record: 32-50Key Losses: The epic suck of Sam VincentKey Additions: Larry Brown, DJ Augustin,a healthy Sean May & Adam Morrison.
1. What significant moves were made during the offseason?

Easily the most significant move of the off season was the firing of Sam Vincent. Its hard to truly capture in a few paragraphs how truly bad of an NBA coach Sam was, but I’ll try to give you a picture of what Fine Ham Biscuit did for the Bobcats last season.
Exhibit A: He started Jeff McInnis at the …

On Friday night the Bobcats entered a festival-like atmosphere in Houston.  With the Rockets poised to capture the second-longest winning streak in NBA history, the crowd was ready to party.  Even the announcers, Clyde Drexler and whoever does Houston's play-by-play, were more like red carpet fashion reporters.  They were full of kind words for the Bobcats too, because—let’s face it—Charlotte had no chance, so why not patronize them? 
Listening to them extol the coaching efforts of Sam Vincent (“he’s really done a great job developing this young team”), I thought they …

Call it the “Dime Magazine Cover Jinx.” The very night I got the latest issue of Dime, which promised an in-depth article about Gerald Wallace on the cover, Crash got clocked by a Mikki Moore elbow and knocked more unconscious than Trent Green. Opening the magazine, I became uncomfortable straight away when the article began with a quote from Arthur Ashe. These comically earnest attempts to hold up athletes as transcendent, Christ-like figures are never a good idea, and unless the subject is Mohammed Ali, authors should avoid it (especially …

Thumbs Up: The Utah JazzThey’re off to the Western Conference Finals, even though they were mostly dreadful last night.  With 25 turnovers and 21/33 shooting from the free throw line, they were like a team of Inspector Gadgets.  Remember Inspector Gadget?  He used to solve all the cases despite never having any clue what he was doing—he would always come out on top essentially by accident.  Meanwhile, Kirilenko (21 and 15) and Boozer (21 and 14) were sort of like the “Penny” and “Brain” of the group and did all the …

Okay, let’s face it: the Bobcats aren’t making the playoffs this year. Worse, they’re probably not terrible enough to get a very high draft pick. So we’re just playing it out right now, and if the Bobcats’ season were a Megadeth album, it’d be Countdown to Extinction. But I’m going to keep watching, because they play hard and because I love them. And that’s what love does to you—like my man Huey Lewis said, it’ll change a hawk to a little white dove.
And how satisfying was the ‘Cats win …

I have one request when it comes to playing the Cavaliers: ABDJ, which stands for “Anyone But Damon Jones.”  Really, I will accept any other form of loss to Cleveland: LeBron James could be awarded thirty free-throws, Anderson Varejao could go for a triple-double, Scott Pollard could tip in the game-winning bucket off his Mohawk—anything, just don’t let Damon Jones stand there and make three’s.   So the good news was that Jones didn’t beat us last night.  Unfortunately, the rest of the Cavaliers did…   They say basketball is a game …

Cue the theme to The Jeffersons: I’m so excited to announce that I’m now a member of the “Bobcats Planet” staff! From now on, my loyal readers—both of them—can catch my recaps either on my own web page or on www.bobcatsplanet.com/joomla/. There are several great aspects of this. First, the name: “Bobcats Planet.” Let’s face it, if there was a requirement to name our site in accordance with the team’s present fan base level, we’d probably be forced to call it “Bobcats Village” or possibly “the Township of Bobcats.” But …
