    I've watched a few games on TV when they weren't on C-Set but it was hard. There's no Kurt Rambis, Tim Kempton, Kelly Tripuka or Mugsey to Cheer for. In fact, after Bezec, Okafor, Knight and maybe Wallace, there's not any real NBA calibre talent on the team.
    The birth of the Hornets was something really special for Charlotte and the Carolinas. It marked our emergence as a major league city and it would be naive to expect that the Bobcats, for all their noble intentions, could replicate that experience.
    I understand that Bickerstaff wants to build with young talent and not take on big contracts until they have a core on place and a full cap to really make a splash. But I wish they'd brought in somebody who could put the ball in the basket, somebody we could cheer for, somebody worth the price of admission. Right now as much as I appreciate the players effort, they're just painful to watch.

    When a man named Bob bought a team and named them the "Bob"cats, it was all downhill from there.

    I'm excited about the teams future. They have set themselves up beautifully cap wise so that in year 3 we can be competitive. We have 2 first round picks next season and will be alot stronger team.

    The new arena will be a draw despite what some critics say. If that place becomes "The place to be" people will show up that are just casual fans and they will fall in love with how hard the team plays.

    The CSET on digital was a terrible decision but, will be corrected next season Im sure.

    If we land a top 3 pick and can get a Bogut, M. Williams or Chris Paul, That would create some buzz and give us a solid 1-2 punch. With Clevelands pick I would love a PG like Felton(if we go big early)

    Next season will be better all around.....

    One thing we have now that we didn't with the Hornets is HOPE.

    We will build a winner and this expansion season of losing is a neccesary evil to get where we want to go.
