Highlights of the home schedule include two visits each from the Miami Heat, Boston Celtics and New York Knicks. The defending NBA Champion Heat, led by reigning league Most Valuable Player LeBron James, will visit the Queen City on Wed., Dec. 26 and Friday, April 5. Kevin Garnett, Paul Pierce and Rajon Rondo will lead the Celtics to town on Monday, Feb. 11 and Tuesday, March 12. The revamped Knicks and perennial All-Star Carmelo Anthony will travel to Charlotte on Wednesday, Dec. 5 and Monday, April 15.

Kevin Durant and the Western Conference Champion Oklahoma City Thunder will make their lone appearance at Time Warner Cable Arena on Friday, March 8. Other marquee opponents coming to Charlotte only once this season include Tim Duncan and the San Antonio Spurs on Saturday, Dec. 8; Chris Paul and the Los Angeles Clippers on Wednesday, Dec. 12; Kobe Bryant and the Los Angeles Lakers on Friday, Feb. 8; and Deron Williams and the Brooklyn Nets on Wednesday, March 6.

The Bobcats will play 18 weekend home games, including eight on Fridays and 10 on Saturdays. The two NBA TV games are against the Spurs on Dec. 8 and against 2012 No. 1 NBA Draft pick Anthony Davis and the New Orleans Hornets on Saturday, Dec. 29.

Thirty-six of the 41 home games will begin at 7:00 p.m. Exceptions include three 7:30 p.m. tips against the Dallas Mavericks on Saturday, Nov. 10, the Memphis Grizzlies on Saturday, Nov. 17 and the Clippers on Wednesday, Dec. 12, as well as a 2:00 p.m. Martin Luther King Day contest against the Houston Rockets on Monday, Jan. 21 and the regular-season finale on Wednesday, April 17 against Cleveland, which will start at 8:00 p.m.

#Bobcats open at home Friday, Nov. 2 vs. Pacers (and D.J. Augustin).

#Bobcats host the NBA champion Heat Dec. 26.

Lakers come to Charlotte Feb. 8. There was no Lakers-Bobcats game in CLT last season.

In a less-than-shocking development the #Bobcats make no appearances on TNT, ESPN or ABC.

I just hope I actually get the games on DirecTV this year... For some reason, I have the ChoiceXtra package, and I get all the main sports channels, but apparently I don't get FoxSportsSouth, but I do get SportsouthPlus, well, at least it constantly has the DTV logo up and plays elevator music, so I assume I get it.
