What we should do

[God]

1. Get #1 pick. (With our luck it will be the #4 pick)

2. Assuming we get the #1, trade it to NOR for their 2 first rounders. (Should both be lottery).

3. Let NOR take Anthony Davis (not going to be a franchise player; marcus camby at best).

4. We take either Drummond/Barnes with the top 3 pick, then someone like MKG/Rivers/Jones.

Should give us a good core with some star potential. Knowing us though we will get #1 and not trade it and just take Davis which will make me sad.

The more I think about it, that doesn't seem too far off. New Orleans isn't strapped for talent either..they are just an underachieving team right now, so that could be plausible.

[TylerVagyler]

If we somehow got Davis or Barnes and then Jones I'd cream myself.

This scenario would please me because lets face it. We are more than 1 player away from not being the worst team in the league.

If got Andre Drummond and MKG our starting lineup would be fearsome defensively

Kemba

Hendo

MKG

Tyrus

Drummond

I'm liking this more and more. Their second pick I think is from Minnesota..so we need to make this trade and then have the t'wolves tank.

[Herbert The Love Bug]

It would not makes sense. I'd would rather get the #1 pick and get Drummond. Which is what we need more than anything. Then with the 1st pick of the 2nd round we could get a pretty good player. But yeah, knowing our luck, we will have the worst record ever and wind up with like the 4th or 5th pick or some bull crap like that.

besides tyus thomas sucking it would be good

[C-A-T-S]

I'd rather just take Davis and try to trade DJ for another pick.

[yasuhara2241]

I love the idea but for me its a dream scenario. Lets be honest the Hornets need talent as well. So they would just as soon keep the two great players. Look at who they have

Eric Gordon - keeper

Jarrett Jack - reserve

Carl Landry - Hustle player solid starter or key reserve

Trevor Ariza - See Carl Landry

Emeka Okafor - We all know who he is

They definitely would need those two picks just as much as we do. But I do know one thing is for certain. IF the bobcats do get the #1, everyone will be pissed at MJ for not pulling the trigger on this trade even though it is not realistic. But I would gladly eat crow if we can pull this off.

[Carolina Fan]

I highly doubt Barnes will come out next year, or he would have done it this year.

And honestly there is no real super star franchise player we could get with the 1st pick honestly.... there are a handful of star players if we can get enough of them maybe we can make something happen.

[Hotsauce]

We should bomb next season too for the #1 pick in 2014

[Wanderlai]

If the Cats can get #1 and they can trade it for 2 top 10 picks...that's a win. If everyone comes out that's expected to then it'll be a deep draft.

[theyhateme45]

In a deep draft why would a team want to give up the opportunity for two top ten players for 1? If we don't want the top player and would rather have two... why wouldn't the team that has the two picks feel the same way?
