(Kawhi) Leonard, (Chris) Singleton and (Tristan) Thompson all drew praise from Bobcats sources. I'm told the Bobcats are going to be pretty conservative with the ninth pick. They'll be content with a single or a double and will likely go for a proven prospect who can be an impact player out of the gate, even if that means drafting a player with a bit lower ceiling. In other words, don't expect them to take a swing for the fences with a player like (Bismack) Biyombo or even (Josh) Selby.

Of the group, Leonard and (Kemba) Walker are at the top of their list, but neither player is projected to be on the board at No. 9. That should leave the two Thompsons (Klay and Tristan), Hamilton, Singleton and the Morris twins battling it out to be the ninth pick.

(Kenneth) Faried, Markieff Morris, (Marshon) Brooks and (Nikola) Vucevic are all serious possibilities with the 19th pick.

So from this article and from some other research that I have done, it sounds like the Bobcats have their prospects in this order for the 9th and 19th pick's...

1. Kemba Walker, PG, UCONN (Pro Comparison's: Ty Lawson, Kyle Lowry)

2. Kawhi Leonard, SF, San Diego State (Pro Comparison's: Luol Deng, Gerald Wallace)

3. Klay Thompson, SG/SF, Washington State (Pro Comparison's: Brandon Roy size and ability/ Mike Miller shooting)

4. Tristan Thompson, PF/SF, Texas (Pro Comparison's: Kevin Garnett size/ Andre Iguodala ability)

5. Jordan Hamilton, SF, Texas (Pro Comparison's: Stephen Jackson, Rashard Lewis)

6. Marcus Morris, SF/PF, Kansas (Pro Comparison's: David West, Al Harrington)

7. Markieff Morris, PF, Kansas (Pro Comparison's: Rasheed Wallace, Drew Gooden)

8. Chris Singleton, SF/PF, Florida State (Pro Comparison's: Trevor Ariza, Shawn Marion)

9. Kenneth Faried, PF, Morehead State (Pro Comparison's: Ben Wallace, Udonis Haslem)

10. Marshon Brooks, SG, Providence (Pro Comparison's: Nick Young, Jamal Crawford)

11. Nikola Vucevic, PF/C, USC (Pro Comparison's: Mehmet Okur, Kosta Koufos)

But really:

Drafting Kemba may be appealing but Augustine has been doing well and that's just another small guy being added on a team that needs athleticism don low. Our number one priority should be getting athletic & big at 4 & 5 imo. I don't know why we wouldn't at least try trading down to get Valanciunas or Kanter. I don't think Leonard will be available, but isn't worth a trade and so we're basically looking at Tristan Thompson. Its a tricky position.

      Watching games this year again and Bryce missed a wide open XL many times and some of them were in the endzone. I get the kid has mental lapses and hasn't broke out yet, but this is year three on a rookie deal! Cutting bait now is too early. If he hasn't gained anymore trust from his QB, posted any highlights, little production, or outright gets beat out then we can talk movement.

      Samesies   I truly may just cash completely out of Panther football if we give him a long term deal that isnt necessary.  I have watched NFL for 50 years now and I can without a shadow of a doubt say you cannot win consistently with BY.  Way too many limitations to deal with.   I may come back around in 3 years when the inevitable happens and all parties are either cut and/or fired.  Giving him a deal before this season so you hopefully can get him cheaper in case he "blows up" or if you truly believe that he will has to be the most moronic decision a gm can make when the evidence is laid before you with different players

      This is the one! I was at that game and all KB had to do was lay down on the corner after the pick or make an obvious tag while he was down. He had already ran a lazy route. Then if Cam would've just walked to the sideline like most elite QBs instead of trying to make the tackle.  A lot of people bring up the TJ Watt hit, but he just reaggravated a bunch of scar tissue from that play. And every Cam hater said that the running did him in and it was a dive tackle attempt on an interception that initially began the shoulder deterioration. He still went to New England later and would've got them in the playoffs had their A team not sat out the covid year. We quit on him too early. But hey how good was Teddy? Am I right?
