Learn More about the Bobcats:
An obsession with Charlotte Bobcats jerseys necessitates an obsession with their history as well. Based in North Carolina, the Bobcats play in the Southeast Division of the NBA's Eastern Conference. They were first established as an expansion team in 1994, after the original Charlotte Team, the Hornets, moved off to New Orleans. Today's Bobcats play at the Time Warner Cable Arena when they have home games. The only time they qualified for a post-season was in 2009-2010.
Nevertheless, the Bobcats have begun rebuilding since late 2010. Although they have been struggling, they work with Michael Jordan, as well as new coaches who want to see the team sizzle before it fizzles out. Despite some setbacks from injuries on the court, the Bobcats are still going strong.
The city used to be home to the Charlotte Hornets NBA team, which owed their name to Charlotte, North Carolina once being referred to as a hornets' nest by the British during the Revolutionary War. Take a whiff of this city's resistance as you go through its historic districts, and get a taste of the new Charlotte in its burgeoning downtown financial district.
