    Charlotte Bobcat's may be the most under rated team in the league
    This team has beaten Cleveland, beat up on Denver, Philly, San Antonio, Phoenix, etc.

    Now they are punking the Laker's and should have beat them in Staples.

    I sure hope my Cav's don't meet this team in the playoffs. They are a scrappy bunch with Stephen Jackson, Tyrus Thomas, Augustin, Wallace and Chandler. Very long, athletic team that can block shot's out of the ass.

        On road they are far from average. One of the best teams in the league when at home, one of the worst and most inconsistent when on the road. That being said, nobody wants to play this team in the playoffs.

          At home = good team.
          On the road = bad team.

              This is a dangerous team. They're defense is tough as nails. They are going to take someone to 7 games if they make the playoffs. I think they matchup better against the Cav's then Orlando. I don't want to see this team in the Loffs.

                  Some team's match up well with other teams. The Net's are a lot better than most people want to admit. They are young and athletic as well and can uptempo the Bobcat's which very few teams can do.

                  I'll bump this thread when Charlotte is taking someone deep into the 1st round playoffs.

                      They just don't know how to close games. They've lost a bunch of games in the 2nd half where they were playing well in the 1st half. They've also lost a bunch the last few minutes of the game as well. I think they're about to improve and will be tough down the stretch.

                        I wouldn't have agreed with this before tonight, but I gotta agree with this now. They don't seem to get much credit, but they are quietly putting together a decent season, especially for the Bobcats.

                          talk about underated? the Bucks are underated and the Cats are just inconsistent that is their problem. Cats will make the playoffs as tonight's win gave them the confidence they needed especially since the Bulls will be fading fas. Supposing the Bobcats decide to play inspired ball they can beat almost anybody.

                              But NJ also beat Boston on the road.

                                  Say what you want about them being a crap team on the road, but their performance at home shows what they are capable of when playing their best. Look at their west coast road trip where they outscored the Suns, Warriors, and Kings, and almost stole one from the Lakers at Staples Centre...

                                  Not a team you want to face in the first round...

                                    They are not underrated; they're rated just fine in my opinion -- a team, that can give any team in the L a legitimate scare in a single game but also one that can flat out stink against any team in the L

                                        all because of lakers game tonight? lakers historically have problems with the bobcats, bobcats at home, lakers on a back2back...i agree but let's not be reactionary.

                                          Not just because of the Laker's game... Look at how the Bobcat's have dominated Cleveland as well. This team is improving every week. Yes, they are inconsistent, yes they can sometimes be awful on offense BUT they are long as shit and can give you fits with their smothering defense. This team lack's leadership and confidence which is why they are inconsistent but if they get it together, watch out.

                                          Yes they can lose to anyone but they can beat anyone as well. That's a scary mix... I'm hoping and praying they don't play my Cav's. As a Cav fan, I'd rather play Boston and Atlanta then these Bobcat's.

                                              The up-and-down Bobcats have now beaten Cleveland, Orlando and the Lakers this season and are jostling for playoff position in the Eastern Conference.

                                              There also on a 6 game win streak...

                                                      Calm down Mac. I went to that gay ass game tonight, and my boys(especially Rashard Lewis) didn't give a good effort in this one. Not making excuses but those bitches were going through the motions tonight. Charlotte is alright, but they ain't getting out the first round.

                                                            Bobcats are one of best teams covering the small spread, they seem to always keep the games pretty close.

                                                              If Charlotte had anyone else on the court but Larry bullshit Hughes, they could have taken this game down the stretch. LH is God awful and shouldn't be playing for any team down the stretch. Bastard.

                                                                Love the way the Bobcats responded in the 2nd. They need to steal one in Orlando in game 2. > which i think they can.

                                                                If this is 1-1 going back to Charlotte.... Watch Out.
