    They're trying to hold on to whatever fans remain.

    $100 Million+ penalty if they move....no, that's not happening

    Guys this is something we really need to start worrying about. The penalty to leave is on a sliding scale, if this team continues to fail, it won't be long before some rich guy buys the team at a discount by agreeing to absorb the teams debts (MJ did this) and moves the fucking team....

    This is the sign of a fucking desperate franchise.

    add 100 million to our team value and we probably still are below league average. not that big of a deal to an investor because in the end we are still an NBA team like anyone else but our value is deflated because of our location and current revenue. a move to seattle with a new arena coming could wipe away that 100m hit in team value literally in a day

    Technically speaking, we'd be 13th.

    Been saying this for a while... we had best hope for a good turn soon or else. They won't make it through another few seasons like this past one unless there is high promise and a franchise type guy in the wings (which there currently isn't). They've had little to no success with this organization since it's come back to Charlotte.. we need some luck in a hurry and after today it's not looking great but I'll hold out till the end.

    Is this actually something you guys are worried about? I only ask because I'm going to be moving down to Charlotte soon and the presence of an NBA franchise was seriously one of my deciding factors in choosing Charlotte (the NBA & NFL are by far my two favorite pro leagues). I realize the Panthers moving isn't a concern, but that only provides 8 games of entertainment per year (not counting preseason & playoffs), whereas the Bobcats provide 41 dates.

    Regarding this offer- I had actually purchased season tickets a couple weeks ago (cheap seats, upper baseline), but when I saw this deal on the website I contacted my ticket rep right away. He was able to get me better seats (albeit only slightly better) for an additional $387 and I now have tickets for a 2nd year. Great deal & fantastic customer service! With all the headaches that come with a major move, it's nice to know that such a big chunk of my entertainment for the next 2 years is taken care of (and paid for!).

    Also, unlike the "Pay the Pick" promotion, I was assured that this deal still affords you all the rights & privileges of a season ticket holder: Cats 365, ticket trade program, team store discount, early entry to arena, etc.
