NBA: Charlotte Bobcats History: "The Charlotte Bobcats are a new addition to the National Basketball Association as of 2004. The Bobcats came to Charlotte after another fairly recent expansion team, the Charlotte Hornets, relocated to New Orleans.
The decision for the Hornets to relocate away from Charlotte was an interesting one in the minds of many. North Carolina is known for its love of basketball and many saw the state as a place that should have a basketball team.
The Bobcats have quickly seen success in the NBA. Despite the fact that they had to start with a clean slate, using an expansion draft to field a team, the Bobcats have already managed to make the playoffs. Their playoff run this year was largely led by someone that joined the team in its conception, Gerald Wallace." ...
