The Cats are on the prowl! It took an OT to get there, but the Bobcats beat the Wizards Wednesday night to secure their place in the playoffs! And for a lot of you out there, what you just heard was “blah, blah, blah.” The Bobcats are on top of their game, but where’s all the love?
It was 94 to 88 over the Washington Wizards Wednesday night in overtime! A key game for positioning in the playoffs, but where’s the trending on Twitter, or the crazy fans wearing gear in uptown? It’s just not happening.
Of course we know all about the backstory: the arena controversy and the name change. But the arena is here to stay, and the Hornets name is coming back next year. Players are performing and not giving up crucial points at the end. It’s good.
Just think of the vibe that was out there when the Panthers went to the playoffs. The fans were crazy with the fever. And it’s not like everybody was loving them all season. Three months in, and they were calling for Ron Rivera’s head.
So if the Bobcats are performing to the point that they’re in the playoffs, why aren’t they getting the same kind of love? That’s what we hit the streets to find out…
