Bobcats Projected Starters

PG. Walker | SG Henderson | SF. Kidd-Gilchrist | PF. Mullens | C. Haywood

I watched the Pacers vs Raptors and for those of you who don't know, they are missing Danny Granger. So Gerald Green was inserted into their starting lineup. Hibbert and George are the best players. The key to stopping Hibbert is keeping him out of the paint. If he get's his position down low, it is all over. But he also poses a problem on the defensive side as well. It'd be nice to have Mullens play some center so that we are stretching Hibbert out of the paint, but that leaves us vulnerable on the opposite end when he has to guard Hibbert. And you can't forget about West who is there go-to scorer with Granger out. He single-handedly carried the Pacers late in the game, scoring majority of their baskets.

Their second unit isn't bad either with Augustin, Stephenson, Hansbrough, and Mahinmi. Mahinmi is another 7 footer that will test our bigs.

I think where we can succeed is if we go after Hill and Augustin. Kemba and/or Sessions could have a good game if they play smart but aggressive.

    • I mean I think the best case scenario has to hit for the Panthers and everyone else in the NFCS has to hit their worst case scenario.  Personally, I think this is the year that NO finally collapses and I think they finish 4th in the division regardless.  ATL is overrated but still likely a 6-9 win team. TB plays tough football, their defense will be there but their success depends on the offense, they too are a 6-9 win team.  The Panthers are probably 4-6 wins at best. If they find some sort of momentum during the season and get 7-8 wins, and TB and ATL struggle then maybe but I find it very unlikely. 
    • We screwed up a couple years ago taking Bryce in the first place.  Nobody held a gun to our head to jump from #9 to #1.  Most people who keep up with draft news knew this 2024 QB class was loaded and we should have waited, which I advocated. It was a dumb move and I knew it.  Now we have to roll with Bryce another year.  That's fine, because this 2025 class isn't that great.  I like Ewers, but not super high on him.  If Bryce shows improvement, which I think he will, that should get him at least one more season before we have to decide on if he's the permanent answer or not.  I've said before, the 2026 draft is the next window for a franchise QB if Bryce isn't the answer. Bryce gets this year and next at a minimum.
