Last season the Bobcats made franchise history by making the playoffs. Their playoff stint didn't last long as they were swept by the Orlando Magic. The Bobcats are hoping to build on that experience and return to the post season. They will once again be lead by the tandem of Gerald Wallace and Stephen Jackson. After acquiring Jackson early last season the Bobcats took off as Jackson played like he had a point to prove after a messy divorce in Golden State. DJ Augustin will be the full time starting point guard with Raymond Felton fleeing for the big stage of Madison Square Garden in the Big Apple. Tyrus Thomas will be the starting power forward and DeSagana Diop will be the starting 5 man taking over for Erick Dampier. Boris Diaw figures to be the Bobcats 6th man . Diaw has been the subject of trade rumors all off season and it remains to be seen how long he remains in Charlotte. Last years lottery pick Gerald Henderson will be another key member on the bench. The rest of the unit includes Nazr Mohammed, Kwame Brown, Matt Carroll, Javaris Crittenton, Shaun Livingston, and Eduardo Najera. The Bobcats should still be a contender for the playoffs in the Eastern Conference but Owner Michael Jordan still has some work to do as they will likely be one and done if they get there.
