2012–13 Charlotte Bobcats season

The 2012–13 Charlotte Bobcats season was the 23rd season of NBA basketball in Charlotte, and their ninth as the Charlotte Bobcats. Charlotte finished the season on a three-game winning streak, and the team's 21–61 record was enough to finish fourth in the Southeast division for the eighth time in nine seasons. The Bobcats tripled their win total from the prior lockout-shortened season, and showed signs of improvement.

gollark: They're doing lots of stupid things while people are distracted. I don't think it's a conspiracy as much as just opportunism.
gollark: No.
gollark: Bluetooth Low Energy, apparently, which is still problematic but better than... not having data, I guess, or having it in a really bad for privacy way.
gollark: The privacy-respecting scheme involves using Bluetooth on individual phones to send anonymized tokens or something, and any privacy regulations around phone tower data (in the US) appear to basically be a joke.
gollark: There's been a proposal for privacy-friendly phone-based contact tracing, and it seems pretty good, so I'd accept that if the application is open-source, and doesn't send excessive data.
