With this round of the playoff closing in, can’t say I would have wanted anything different with the playoffs - Detroit and Lakers leading. Orlando Magic is another Dark Horse to watch out for… my bets are on them…

We had some real close games, controversies; all in all a complete action packed season. Though I personally feel it was shame to hear that Avery Johnson got sacked as coach.
Well I’ll let you on to the real reason for me being so upbeat, a few days back a friend of my introduced me to this AWESOME mobile app which streams live scores on to my phone, YEAH!! I got to keep track of the game – it was Lakers vs. Denver, I said to myself, “How come I didn’t have this before?”

Since then I have been hooked on it... for live score updates for all the games in progress, info of my favorite teams – schedules, standings, breaking news, the whole work at a glance no matter where I go. The latest info is automatically pushed to the phone. I have been finding this a really handy to stay in touch with all the coverage surrounding the game while I am on the go, trust me when I say “I haven’t missed a game ever since”.

It’s a Free app and you can get it by visiting http://nba.plusmo.com on your phone.

Am all geared up for the upcoming NBA Finals in June. Have definitely scored a 3pointer with this mobile app.]]>

We hung on to beat the 76'ers 115 - 109. Ended the season 32 - 50 after last year being 33-49. Very disappointing, after such high expectations with J-Rich coming in and Dudley in the draft. But May and Morrison being lost for the year really hurt, and the team had to get use to a new Coach and the Coach to the team. Still, we were better than out record indicates.

J-Rich was solid with 29 pts and 7 reb
Okafor with 24 pts 9 reb
Ray with 18 pts and 12 asts
Matt with 19 pts and 8 reb
Nazr with 12 pts and 5 reb
Solid bench play also.

Well, with the #8 pick, unless the ping pong balls help or hurt us, and with May and Morrison back (hopefully) and with whatever changes await us personnel-wise, this will be an interesting off season and it leads us to a hopefully much better next season!]]>

As you know, things on the BobcatsPlanet got very excited about the new Arena Naming and Broadcast Rights Deal. Lots of very happy people and I think it will greatly expand the popularity of the team.

Michael, here in the Upstate of SC, I was very excited about seeing the game tonight on Fox Sports South. But at 7:00, it is the Best Damn Sports on my channel, not the Bobcats. On the sister channel of SportsSouth which is to show Wednesday's game vs NY, they are showing the Braves game tonight. One of my talking buddies from the BobcatsPlanet is also in the Upstate, and he is as livid as I that we are being left out of the Fox Sports South showing. What is the deal? Our Cable here is Charter Communications, so does that have something to do with it? We are only 1 hr from Charlotte, but the SportsSouth and Fox Sports South have shown a lot of Atlanta sports that past couple years - the Hawks, Braves and Thrashers. Atlanta is 2.5 hrs away, so we are a Charlotte market. Are the Upstate Bobcat fans being thrown out to the Atlanta teams for some reason? Can you help us to find out. I know that today the team said the fans in NC and SC would see the game tonight on Fox Sports South, but that is not so. Please help us if you can.]]>

Crash beginning to look more himself with 21, and J-Rich had 26, but with 7 TO's. Good Bench play, and Ray looked so-so as the PG. Uninspiring play from Nazr at the Center tonight, and Okafor showed why most want him out of Charlotte. 4 pts and 2 reb. He is just not showing any desire at all to play the game. Very sad turn of events for him and for Charlotte. He turned down $13 mil per yr to prove he was worth more, and now he has lost millions of $ by looking very bad. And Charlotte will likely lose the face of their franchise after this coming season. Actually, I anticipate a Sign and Trade once they lift the moritorium on signing those going into their last yr.]]>
