theres a reason the bobcats are the bobcats

According to Wiki:

"In June 2003, the new team was named the Bobcats. The bobcat, an expert at survival according to the North Carolina Wildlife Commission, is athletic, fierce and an indigenous predator to the Carolinas. Charlotte, already being home to the Carolina Panthers of the National Football League, made the cat-related name a natural choice for the area's new basketball team. There is also speculation as to whether or not the "Bob" in Bobcats is a further reference to Robert "Bob" Johnson, the original owner of the team."

Tough decision. It's a seemingly weak draft so they either take a chance on just the #5 pick or they keep their picks and give themselves two chances at improving the team.

I would have made the trade. the NBA draft even in deep years usually doesn't have much at #19, picks like that are a throwaway for bad teams. They can't draft a complimentary player as there's not much to compliment on the Bobcats.

I'd take Burks and Faried over the #4 or #5 at this point.

Marshon Brooks easily won the matchup and had his way with Alec Burks today.

In this draft, nine might be as good as five, and you might be able to flip 19 for a better pick next year. It might be nice to move the picks and get Kemba or somebody, but maybe they are waiting until draft day to make the move.

Good Point

      I am not sure he will put the over the games but we’ll probably have them.   Two things I am thinking.  We have 4 preseason games.  All the coaches have enough service time to know the standards that are in place for decades. If I recall it was play your starters just a series to start woth and build it up until week theee where play a lot and you have week four to set hour roster. Evaluate before cuts.   Bevell will certainly have the whole thing down pat.   I’d they don’t do the fries and frie air will worry too. Because it is set up to do that.     I have said since they went t three preseason people have to figure a new way are still feeling it out and trying things.  We don’t have to this year.

      At least we have Mike Kay and his little buddy sidekick whoever to put you to sleep when suffering from insomnia. They're all useless unfortunately.
