Larry Brown also likes Earl Clark

It was obvious, listening to Bobcats coach Larry Brown, that he was impressed by Louisville's Earl Clark Thursday. Brown compared Clark to both Tim Thomas and Boris Diaw, just the kind of versatile, highly skilled players Brown likes.

Brown has said repeatedly that talent should outweigh need in making any draft pick. But I wonder how much Clark would play on a roster that already includes Gerald Wallace and Vladimir Radmanovic. Clark probably isn't strong enough to play power forward anytime soon at the NBA level; he needs to be a 3.

I'd be ok with taking him considering we could still end up stealing Dionte Christmas ,Danny Green, or Meeks in the second round.

Clark reminds me of Odom/Anthony Randolph.

      Another Win

      Kalkbrenner and Sion James received regular contracts and not two ways, so the Hornets have some work to do to cut the roster size down.

      Gustavsson would be insane. I think we would have to break the bank to afford that move. Which, I don't think is necessarily a bad idea. Ultimately, Freddie isn't likely to be around more than a couple of seasons more. We can all agree that unless they have a fleet of sports psychologists working on Kochetkov, he will never be capable of getting his head on straight enough to compete.

      I originally hated the Miller deal but with the cap projected to rise nearly $10M next season the Canes struck some pretty good deals between Miller and Ehlers. Most of the team is locked in for the next few years. Nikishin will need an extension probably in the $6M AAV range. And Blake will need one if we don’t move him. Personally I’d move Blake, picks, and any prospect not named Nikishin/Nadeau/Artamonov for McTavish as I don’t see any any of the big time players moving teams next year. Realistically the Hurricanes should just target Gustavsson next year to fix the goal tending issue. But I’m all for moving Blake, picks, and prospects for McTavish this year. Ehlers - Aho - Jarvis Svechnikov - McTavish - Stankoven Martinook - Staal - Carrier Hall - Kotkaniemi - Robinson Jost - Jankowski Slavin - Miller Nikishin - Chatfield Gostisbehere - Walker Reilly Andersen Kochetkov I’d do Blake, Felix-Unger-Sorum, and 27 2nd for McTavish.
