NBA professional basketball team season
The 2013–14 Charlotte Bobcats season was the 24th season of the franchise in the National Basketball Association (NBA). It was also the 10th and final season under the Bobcats name. The Bobcats reached the playoffs for the first time since 2010 and were swept by the two-time defending champion and eventual Eastern Conference champion Miami Heat in the first round. Like in 2010, the Bobcats were swept in the first round. Starting with the 2014–15 NBA season , the franchise reclaimed the name and history of the city's original NBA franchise, the Hornets.
