They're definitely bad enough to set the all time worst win%. I'm not sure they have a single player who'd start for another team in the NBA. But I'm worried about the last couple games when coaches start resting their guys for the playoffs. Charlotte might be able to steal one and ruin what would otherwise be a historically bad season. It'll be exciting to see how things play out.

Tonight: 100-68 home loss to the Bulls. Ouch.

Next up: home game versus Memphis this Friday. Luckily Memphis is still vying for playoff position, so I think they'll be playing to win.

BREAKING NEWS: Charlotte Bobcats Still Practicing for Some Reason

Tonight: 85-80 home loss to the Grizzlies.

Next up: Home game versus Sacramento on 4/22.

Sacramento is their best remaining chance to notch a W. After that, they travel to Washington, travel to Orlando, and then host the Knicks.

We ought to know Sunday if a team is going to break the 1972-73 76's record for worst winning %. If they can get by the very bad Kings, they're just about home free to stake their claim on history.

It will be interesting to see how orlando fares against them, and for that matter how orlando does the rest of the season.

Bobcats could get them, our orlando could respond like post melo trade denver.

From Grizz Bobcats game:

“Biyombo told me, ‘This is my house,’” Gay said, smiling afterwards. “I told him, ‘You have 7 wins. It’s everybody’s house.’”

Gotta make hay while the sun is shining.

This loveable band of losers isn't going to go quietly into the history books as one of the worst. They've got their eyes dead set on taking down the 72-73 sixers.

Tonight: a 114-88 loss to the 20-43 Kings. This was a big, big loss for the boys from Charlotte. It takes grit and guts to make history and losing by almost 30, at home, to a ~.300 team shows that they've got both.

Next Up: away game versus the 17-46 Wizards on 4/23.

If they lose this, they should lose out. No way they beat either Orlando or the NYK

Bobcats! My brothers of the roundball! I would rather fight beside you than any army of thousands! Let no man forget how menacing we are, we are lions! Do you know what's waiting beyond that beach? Immortality! Take it! It's yours!

Possibly, Kentucky doesn't have a salary cap

Tonight: a 101-73 away loss to the 17-46 Wizards (2nd worst record in the league ahead of only the Bobcats)

Next Up: Away game on 4/25 versus the badly slumping Magic, who have lost 3 in a row and 10 of the last 14.

Hey, nobody said making history was gonna be easy. That said, Charlotte's leading rebounder is grabbing 5.9 board/game and their leading scorer is averaging 15/game. They're 30th in points scored/game and 27th in points allowed/game. They just lost to the second worst team in the NBA by nearly 30. If anybody can lose to a team mired in drama, it's the Bobcats.

Not sure whether to put this in the Bobcat or the Flopping thread, but the Bobcats were victims of the flopping last night.

:15 second mark, or so.

Probably would have made a 40 point difference last night.

Actually, the refs buying this crap pisses me off. Review it before kicking a guy out when there is no contact being made, and fine the guy who flopped.

1 game to go. Can they go 0-2 on the back to back, and finish 7-59? Time will tell, but this team has a fire in their eye.

After trailing by 2 at halftime to the Knicks, the LOLCats were outscored by 18 in the second half.

I love witnessing history
