WHO WOULD WIN IN A HEAD TO HEAD MATCHUP?

[JakeFlake]

Eddie Jones checking Stephen Jackson? No chance. The Bees would have an advantage inside, but Felton/Jack would be the difference.

Bobcats by eight.

[pdandy1994]

Cats. Now if you put the Baron Davis that was a superstar in the starting lineup, it would be a much better game.

[BOBCATS_BALL!]

I never thought I would love an NBA team as much as I did the Hornets in the late 90s, early 2000s. Yet starting last season when we got hot and made a nice run and of course going into this year when we got Jack, I feel that I love these team MORE than any of those Hornet teams.

Bobcats win

but loose terribly in the logo department.. :nonod:

[RedMage138]

Bobcats win on the starting 5. If you progress some of those bench players to maybe 03-04 then it becomes a different story

That.

The inside game of the big 3 (Hornets) was bar-none compared to our inside game.

That being said Jones was known for his defense and perimeter, but checking a 6-8 Wing with handles like Jack is just asking for trouble.

Bobcats win

but loose terribly in the logo department.. :nonod:

I didnt like the logo at first but im warming up to it now. I like the new one too, the one on center court of the arena. I also love that they got rid of the orange jerseys. Those were awful and I like the new white ones plus the pin stripe looks nice too.

[King Taharqa]

Yeah the new jerseys are more sleek and professional looking. The new logo is flashier as well. As for the Hornets, I like the actual bee in the logo, but the font they used looks cheap compared to today's standards. I actually like the Bobcats dark blue and orange color scheme better than the teal & purple we had with the Hornets.

[Panthers128]

I picked the Hornets, I think the NBA was overall better back then, especially the Eastern Conference.

I think the Bobcats will win a playoff series though.

[Britneck]

That's a tough one. Before Phills died people thought we could win the east. I loved the Hornets but i never remember them dominating anyone like we are doing right now. I think i would have to go with Bobcats right now. As for the rest of the discussion.....Logo and name were better with the Hornets for me, but i love the Bobcats colors. I think we have the best colors out of every sports team. That orange and blue is sweet. The new Bobcats logo i really like though. The one that is Bobcats_Ball aviatar.
