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 okay. We as an organization have been more patient with him than many. And there has been a small parade of guys drafted since he was, also to bad teams, that have passed him. Some have lapped him. As a fan I am out of patience but he gets this year it is out of my hands always has been. I just hope the bar is higher than it has been for him.    FWIW, XL dropped two passes last year. He did do some other bad stuff, just saying. 
    • Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.
    • Don’t recall seeing many of his interviews but what strikes me is that he engages and goes in depth. Even with the cliche answers as referenced by OP come across somewhat thoughtful.  Very likable personality despite being someone who can crush an average person like I can crush a paper cup. I knew Motons mother had a career at MSU but was looking on the google and found that Mushin Muhammad personally knew Motons grandfather.   His late grandfather was a professor at MSU.   Cool guy.  Interesting family and small world.
