(My Sportsbook) - The Charlotte Bobcats are caught in a season-high four-game funk and will try to stop the bleeding Monday night versus the visiting Philadelphia 76ers at Time Warner Cable Arena.

The Bobcats have also dropped three in a row at home and are 3-6 as the host this season. In Saturday's 79-74 home loss to the Milwaukee Bucks, Gerald Wallace scored 18 points and Emeka Okafor posted a double-double with 16 points and 18 rebounds.

Raymond Felton chipped in 14 points and nine rebounds for Charlotte, which averages an NBA-worst 86.7 points per game and owns the league's second-worst shooting percentage at 42.2.

Charlotte guard Jason Richardson (ankle surgery) is expected to miss his sixth straight game on Monday and is listed as doubtful. The dunk specialist is averaging 17.6 points per contest.

Philadelphia has won two in a row and five of its last six games, including Sunday's 89-81 victory over the Golden State Warriors at the Wachovia Center.

Elton Brand continued to shine and posted a double-double with 23 points and 12 rebounds, as the 76ers moved above the .500 mark for the first time this season. Brand is averaging 18.8 points over the last six contests. Andre Iguodala added 15 points and Samuel Dalembert ended with eight and 16 boards.

The Sixers, who will face former head coach Larry Brown on Monday, will try to improve their 2-4 road record. Brown was head coach of the Sixers from 1997-98 to 2002-03 and guided the team to the playoffs five times, including an NBA Finals appearance in the 2000-01 season.

Philly went 2-1 against the Bobcats last season and has won four of the previous six matchups. Charlotte, though, is 5-1 over the past six meetings as the host in this series.
