Last year, the Lady Cats were officially named the hottest dance team in the NBA ... 'cause they're from Charlotte, duh. Well, we need to keep them winning, as it's time for the 2011 NBA dance team bracket competition. Let's support our hometown hotties and cheer on our cheerleaders.

VOTE HERE between 2 p.m. on Monday through 2 p.m. Tuesday ... or here.

If you vote, you can see the Lady Cats special burlesque video via Bobcats.com. And if you send me your voting confirmation to brittney.cason@creativeloafing.com, I will put you in the drawing for lower level tickets to the April 6 Bobcats vs. Orlando Magic game, in the 100 section ... which is pretty much the first row.

The Charlotte girls are using their talents against South Beach, to defeat the Heat. But they need your help. So vote, damn it! We only have 24 hours.

Meanwhile, you can get tickets to the Orlando game via Charlotte's MS Society. Just go to this site and enter the code BOBCATS and $5 from every ticket goes to the Multiple Sclerosis Society!
