So far this season it has been a pretty rough go of it for the Charlotte Bobcats. With injuries, a lack of talent, and a franchise record 16 game losing streak, the Bobcats haven’t had many good things happen to them. But hopefully that is about to change.

Head Coach Paul Silas went with a small lineup which included D.J. Augustin and Kemba Walker for all of the fourth quarter and overtime which helped erase a 12 point deficit. Add on Tyrus Thomas, Boris Diaw, and Byron

This is my all new post called “Phifer’s Points” where I will post some quick comments and observations about what I saw from the last game. • This was a game on the Bobcats schedule that they had a good chance of winning. But the poor performance on defense and giving up uncontested shot allowed the Cavaliers to score at will. Cleveland had 100 points with

The Charlotte Bobcats welcomed the Miami Heat and the “Big Three” into town on Wednesday night and for most of the game Charlotte was the dominant team. In front of 19,614, the largest crowd for a Bobcats game in franchise history, the Bobcats led for almost the entire game but when it came down to making the big shot Dwyane Wade made sure he got the last laugh.
