    I don`t. I try to stay interested, but they are dead set on giving up.

    I have a passive interest in them. They have missed on almost all their draft picks since they came in the league. That is why they have never been very good. They are rebuilding again now.

    I care about them. I actually prefer them to college basketball.

    Nope. Couldn't care less. The team is terrible, many years away from being a playoff contender (if ever). Plus, the NBA itself is very unattractive to me ( emphasises individual, self promotion, showboating).

    I'd trade them to Raleigh for the Hurricanes in a split second.

    First thing I would do is get rid of Diaw. He is about useless. He did not even shoot in the last game when Indiana basically knocked them out of the playoff hunt.

    i tried. i figured with silas back in coaching and the cavs sucking, it would be a good time to find a new team to follow. sadly, i feel like i had more interest in the cats winning that did anybody in the front office, so it's hard to pull for them.

    i wouldn't be surprised to see them go away. their biggest problem is lack of fan support and you're not going to get fans to show up with the promise of lottery picks each year. i know you guys think being a 6-8 seed is pointless, but you gotta walk before you run. the cats need to fill seats and the only way to do that is to win basketball games. once they've gotten some productive seasons under their belt, then you can talk about how just making the playoffs isn't enough anymore.

    Not renewing my season tickets after my one year. First they quit on LB and got him fired, and in the process dug a hole too deep to make the playoffs. Then at the very end of the deadline they make their one star and their coach look stupid by trading him for salary relief, ending with my gf in tears on his return. Thanks for the memories Bobcats.

    I might be back in a couple of years but I think next year is going to be very ugly. And that might result in them getting contracted or moved so I'm pretty much starting to distance myself until this whole labor situation is taken care of.

    I've tried to since they started but I can't build up any loyalty to them. I'm not sure it's the Bobcats and all their screwups ownership-wise that's the cause of it though. I just have no real interest in the NBA anymore. I haven't watched a full game in a long, long time and I don't see that changing any time soon. I'd rather watch college BB.
