I really think Henderson would be a good pick...He may very well indeed be gone. I DO NOT WANT CURRY! Too small and will not be able to defend. Danny Green in the 2nd round would be a steal.

Courtney Fells would be lucky to play in the D-League or Europe. That being said, I really hope that Henderson last to the Bobcats pick. And just for the record Im as big of a Tar Heel homer as they come.

Larry Brown loves Courtney Fells..he'll be a 2nd round pick no doubt in my mind...

1st round - Steph Curry (even tho I would take Tyreke Evans if I am trading up like they say they want to)

2nd round - Either Fells or the best wing on the board.

I really don't know what the Bobcats are trying to do with their team if they take Curry. If you take Evans or Derozan you have two guys who are talented enough to score as much as Curry can in the NBA AND they can play D on a bigger wing.

Derozan is a Rudy Gay clone and Evans really could be the next Brandon Roy with his size and ability to handle the ball. Both of those guys are players that the Bobcats shouldn't have passed up in favor of Adam Morrison and if they go with the college superstar yet again this year then they will be making the same mistake.

I'm gonna trust Larry Brown on this one. His basketball knowledge dwarfs ours and even though I was mad when they picked DJ over Lopez, it turned out to be a very good pick. If he likes Stephen then I trust that he is looking out for our team. I can see his logic being we lack a 3pt threat, which Curry is.

I also can't deny being a bit sentimental remembering the days of " Mugsy to Dell for threeeeeee!!!". He's Dell 2.0 with a few upgrades. Plus LB gets to see these guys can do up front and live.

LB is wise...

Let's not forget we have some good pieces to offer and the Cat's are very willing to talk about trades. As good as we started to become last year change is still in our future, big time!

LB is wise... trust in LB :aureola:

    • You could say that-- but if we don't need a starting OT this year, why would you draft a flawed one that is not going to play? (We are coming from different underlying assumptions and perspectives--I see your argument and don't disagree with the premise) Your thinking is based on the assumption that an OT for the future is more important than immediate needs at other positions, or that we can meet other needs in later rounds even if we take the OT in round 1.  I do not think there is but 1 OT worthy of a first-round grade---they are mocked based on need and demand--if we do not have a need for a starter right now, a team at 18 may grab a T that is the 33rd best player--worth it if you have no starting T, but not if you have a starter.  So just because they are mocked around the middle of the first it does not mean that the players are good values--teams get desperate.  QBs are a great example.  Simpson may be worth it in round 1 for the Cardinals, but not the Jets, because they have Geno Smith.  Sure, they will need a QB by next year, but taking Simpson is a reach. I do not see our need, with 2 starters (Walker and Moton) and another possibly returning by the end of the season enough to justify ranking OT over positions like Safety, Will LB--I do not think we replaced A Shawn Robinson (We gonna put a NT out there?  Wharton (280lbs)?  So do we reach in round 1 for a player who may not play much or do we get a Will LB that can cover?  A deep free safety?  A quality center? A playmaking TE?  A DT to replace Robinson?  A wide receiver to balance the secondary?  Long term, if the right player was there, you would be right.  Short term, OT is a luxury at this point, in my view.  
    • Put Huey P Newton on the helmet. With his AK. 
    • We arent switching. Evero is 3-4 to the core. Given how 3-4 has been a noticeable characteristic of top defenses recently and we have drafted and signed players fir it  I dont know why anyone would think that's a good idea
