UPDATED this in my thread as well, but here you go.

Classic Bobcats:

From Bonnell:

There are definitely serious talks going on between the Charlotte Bobcats and Milwaukee Bucks. Don't know all the particulars yet, but it sounds like the Bobcats could end with the 10th pick and maybe send No. 19 to Milwaukee.

Don't know what veterans are involved, but here's a curiosity: Stephen Jackson and Corey Maggette have similar contract numbers, both in salary size and length of contracts. The Bucks would love to move Maggette. Don't know that the Bobcats would see him as an asset.

Horrible, self-mutilating, and redundant... you know, the usual Bobcats strategy.

We shouldn't be giving up anything else if we're giving them 9mil in an expiring. We should get the 10th for that alone.

I disagree. We'd atleast have to swap picks and give them the 19th. Then we'd have back to back picks. Diaw is not worth the 10th overall pick, even with that expiring.

It depends, especially if the new CBA will have a hard cap.

Diaw's game itself isn't worth the 10 pick, but his contract is in that case. I've seen plenty similar deals in the past, we all have.

How many times as an NBA fan have you looked at a trade and thought "Wow, they actually did that?"

Problem is, we're always the team that "actually did that."

We know he's not worth a 10, but maybe we can fool em :biggrin5:

I want the 10th pick, but I'm hoping to get Vucevic with the 19th, so I don't want to give it up.

Yeah I guess if you are looking for Vucevic then 10 would be too high in terms of value. I wouldn't mind snagging him either. I just don't see Diaw alone for the 10th going down.

As long as we aren't trading Thomas.

I'd be willing to give them TT for the 10th. I'm sure another team would be willing to take Diaw's expiring as well.

Another idea because Maggette's name keeps popping up, what if we took Maggette back with the 10th, and gave them Diaw?

That way we still keep the 19th and makes more sense for both sides because we'd be taking back an older player with a bad contract and giving them an expiring in its place. I don't want Maggette or his contract, but if we can get the 10th and keep the 19th out of it, I'd do it.

      That's it. How do you feel about this draft class.

      By WUnderhill · Posted

      Love the Freeling pick even more after watching his pressers. Dude is sharp and definitely seems to have the right mentality. I loved hearing how personal he took having a bad game with a torn labrum and instead of seeing that as the reason for his bad game and not changing anything, it motivated him to work even harder. Such a great pick, we finally got our all pro level LT for the next decade and now we can move Ickey to RT or guard with no hurt feelings due to his injury. Second favorite pick is probably Brazzell. He said he false started on his 40 and it cost him probably 0.04 seconds, so he’s more of a 4.33 guy rather than 4.37. Really Randy Moss lite. I didn’t know anything about him prior to drafting him and first highlight reel I saw of him I immediately thought he looked like Moss. Then I saw the measurables and was like yep. Then I see that he’s drawn that comparison by many scouts and analysts. If he can add consistency and play to the level of his highlights every play then we got an incredible value.

      Round 1: The Carolina Panthers select OT Monroe Freeling (Georgia)

      By rebelrouser · Posted

      During his three years at UGA he only allowed 5 sacks. He is only 21 and is on an upward trajectory. He's a great athlete that was good basketball player in high-school.  His height (76% how is this only 76%???? these guys are giants now), hands (81%), span (99%), speed (96%), quickness (10 yd. 86%), and explosiveness (vert. 96%, broad 97%) are all outstanding.  When we took Freeling, Fano, Mauioga, Proctor, and Miller were all off the board so we could have drafted Iheanachor or Lomu instead or waited to the second or third round to take Bell, Tiernan or Barber or wait even longer.  A lot of these tackles (including the first two taken) project to right tackle or guard in the NFL and that's not what we needed now.  Freeling has some sloppiness to clean up in his run blocking, but he's young and getting better.  We can let him get experience behind Walker and Moton knowing if he has to replace one of the two this year, his pass blocking won't get Bryce killed. Icky's not coming back from that injury as a nfl starting left tackle and Moton is in the twilight of his career.  If Walker has a great year, we will have to pay him a lot and if he is medicore we would want to let him walk.  Getting a LT on a rookie contract is going to help a lot with the cap.
