If the Bobcats do trade back...

Recommended Posts

...with Cleveland, and end up with #4 & 24, first of all, I'm going to be pissed if Washington picks Barnes at #3, which I have a sneaky suspicion they will; but if they don't, I would love for the Bobcats' 1st Round to look something like this:

#4 - Harrison Barnes

#24 - Perry Jones

Doubt that Jones would fall that far, but I've seen him in the early 20s, and nothing would be stopping Charlotte from making a deal (24 & 31) to move up a few more spots to get him.

I think a lineup of...

PG - Walker (or pick up one with some of that cap space)

SG - Henderson

SF - Barnes

PF - Jones

C - Biyombo

...would be good to enter next season with.

My comparison for Perry Jones & Biz in the paint would be Rasheed Wallace & Ben Wallace. Rasheed was taller, and more versatile, like Jones. Ben was shorter, but stronger, and a great rebounder and defender, like Biyombo could be.

Lol at Perry Jones falling to the 24th.

Apparently you didn't read the entire post. What part of "Doubt that Jones would fall that far, but I've seen him in the early 20s, and nothing would be stopping Charlotte from making a deal (24 & 31) to move up a few more spots to get him" don't you understand?

I don't understand how trading back when they just had the worst season in NBA history? They have so many holes to fill.

How do you not understand it when you answered your own question? They have a lot of holes to fill so moving back to spots will also allow them to get an extra pick in the draft thus acquire more assets. It really isn't rocket science. Besides the talents from the 2-5 spots in the draft will be about the same. And like you said, we have a lot of holes to fill so it really doesn't matter which of those guys we take

If they trade back & let the 2 potential stars in Beal & Barnes get drafted they deserve a role player in Robinson or MKG. No way in hell they trade #2. Jordan & Cho will draft the guy they feel will become the best pro.

This whole thing is stupid because Washington will go Robinson before Barnes. They just picked up Ariza and drafted Chris Singelton last year.

If we do get the 4th and 24th pick I could see the draft being

Barnes and Feb Melo.

Cleveland will pick Barnes if we give them the chance.

    • Yeah they were bad QBs - but QB's that stayed on their teams for several years.  BY is better than all of those. 
    • This is the right move even if you think Bryce isn't the future. Everything except signing him to a long term deal until proven otherwise. There's a decent chance we have a shot to draft a QB next year that we like. 
    • If we're still bad enough that Canales gets fired, especially if it's during the season, there is no way we could ever attract any HC worthy of the job if we told them they had to keep Bryce their first year. That would be 2 coaches he's gotten fired and 4 years of not performing up to par. I still say replace both of them next offseason.  I like Canales the man and I think he's done an absolutely outstanding job at fixing our locker room issues, as it was really bad before he showed up.  But I just don't see it from him with his in game decision making, I think he's held us back just as much as Bryce has, just in different ways. Canales was our Dan Campbell, the coach you hire to turn the franchises culture around for the HC after them to inherit and take to the next level.   The difference was he had some elite coordinators early on and really let him focus on his "leader of men" role as opposed to the X's and O's that Canales does himself and it's turned out well for him.
