			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div>Thank you for the last 9 years.<br />
<br />
I want to shout out all the supporters of the Bobcats, all the fans who been coming out and supporting ever since Season 1 in the old Charlotte Coliseum. Your loyalty, support, and overall belief in a franchise that didnt win a lot like the Bobcats amazes me. No one can ever call our fans &quot;bandwagoners&quot; or &quot;fairweather&quot;<br />
<br />
Thank you Ziggy for this website and resource that has been a blessing for all of us Bobcats fans. Bobcats Planet is one of the best websites in the CLT area and the best about CLT sports.<br />
<br />
As we shift away into an rehashed identity and bring in &quot;new&quot; fans, I just want to tell our &quot;old&quot; fans its been a blast.<br />
<br />
I'll never forget the triple OT game vs. the Lakers in 07. I'll never forget a Bobcats game was the first game my lil nephew attended. I'll never forget all the close ones we blew at the end, all the upsets we pulled, and our magical playoff year in 2010. <br />
<br />
I don't know if the Bobcats will be &quot;appreciated&quot; by the city in the future, but as a native Charlottean I will always remember and understand it was the Bobcats who brought NBA basketball back to Charlotte. It was the Bobcats that even when they werent embraced, wanted to win for this city and community. And even as a former Hornets fan in the 80's and 90's, it was the Bobcats that resonated with me further as a fan.<br />
<br />
Peace to all the die hard Bobcat fans and supporters, and remember, its still BOBCATS 4 LIFE over here! Peace and blessings.</div>

A million thanks to the BCP community for putting up with all this insanity for the last little while.  There's not a better, more insightful fan page out there, so having y'all humor our little 'Movement'...it's been an honest pleasure.  Looking forward to shooting the breeze with y'all for years to come.<br />

But yeah...tomorrow...SHOW YOURSELVES!!!<br />

			Rooting for a perpetually hopeless franchise will drive you insane for a number of reasons. You know this. But you know when it gets really bad? The playoffs, when you have to watch players your team passed up dominate on another team. Actually that's not it, either. It gets REALLY bad when you watch someone like Kawhi Leonard dominating for the Spurs and realize that this never would've happened if he'd landed with your team.<br />
<br />
This epiphany is the most crushing truth of them all.
			
		<hr />
	</div>
</div> That's from this Grantland piece: <a href="http://www.grantland.com/blog/the-triangle/post/_/id/62485/the-kawhi-leonard-conundrum-and-why-life-is-unfair" target="_blank">http://www.grantland.com/blog/the-tr...life-is-unfair</a><br />
<br />
Maybe we could call it the Harrison Barnes conundrum for this board? I thought it was fairly accurate and quite pertinent to some of the issues we've been discussing around here lately. You guys have any thoughts on this issue?<br />
<br />
At the same time, I feel like the Bobcats will be set up for success in the near future, mostly because the team has targeted hard working, driven, and high character guys and that is the secret to getting out of this mess. I don't think we have the culture there yet obviously, (and the Dunlap firing worries me) but hopefully the attitude of our guys will get us there eventually.<br />
<br />
Also, on a semi-related note: <a href="https://twitter.com/NBAGuru/status/335961021032312832" target="_blank">https://twitter.com/NBAGuru/status/335961021032312832</a><br />
<br />
In case anyone needed refreshment on why it is important for this team to suck so bad. The question is how and when do you stop the sucking and get it together. Talent is obviously enormously important, but I think there's more to it than that.</div>

<img src="http://images.halloweencostumes.com/mens-muscle-chest-devil-costume-zoom.jpg" border="0" alt="" /><br />
<br />
What I need to know: <br />
<br />
1. Is there a clear tier of players at the top of the draft or is it a pretty shallow blend through the lottery? <br />
<br />
2. Who is starting to look better as a result of the combine? Anyone entering in your top 5 that wasn't there previously?<br />
<br />
3. If we go for a big early, is there a sg in second round territory that might make it worth seeking a second round pick?</div>
