How did Jason Richardson rank so high when he only played one season and a half with Charlotte, and was unable to take them to the playoffs? The answer is that while he couldn’t take the team to the postseason, Richardson did put together one of the better offensive seasons in franchise history, and for an organization that hasn’t had that many, it is enough to elevate him in this rank.

A two-time Third Team All-NBA player and one-time All-Star when he was playing for the New Jersey Nets, Derrick Coleman still had a lot left in the tank when he arrived in Charlotte in his early 30s. Coleman no longer had a double-double average, but could still explode for great games on both ends of the court.

A seven-footer from Salem, Massachusetts, Matt Geiger spent the best three years of his NBA career with Charlotte. Geiger, while non-descript to many, had a soft image yet still averaged 10 Points per Game in Charlotte, and stepped up his defensive presence more than he got credit for.

Arriving as a Free Agent, Brevin Knight was given the most playing time of his career and had the only two campaigns in which he exceeded 10 Points per Game. The Point Guard kept his distributing numbers high and would lead the NBA in Assist Percentage in the Bobcats' inaugural year.
