Bobcats/Hornets Interview Ben McLemore, Kelly Olynyk, Michael Carter-Williams, and Otto Porter At The Combine

Ben McLemore says he expects to interview with the Bobcats tonight.

 

Bobcats have interviewed Gonzaga 7-footer Kelly Olynyk, who figures to go no higher than 11th. Trade-back scenario?

 

 

Bobcats have interviewed Michael Carter-Williams, the 6-6 point guard from Syracuse. He models himself after Jason Kidd.

 

 

Carter-Williams would give Bobcats a bigger alternative at the point. But he's a poor jump-shooter. They already have plenty of those.

 

 

Otto Porter has interviewed with Charlotte, Phoenix and OKC. Says he looks at Cleveland, Phoenix and Orlando as being the best fit.

Olynyk is a scrub who has bust written all over him. Would rather have McRoberts starting up front than him. 

 

MCW seems like a guy who will need proper tutelage and some time to develop. Bobcats don't have that time. They need to draft a few guys that can come in immediately and make some sort of an impact. Trey Burke, Anthony Bennett, Nerlens Noel, etc. 

 

I think Richard Howell would be an excellent pick in the second round. He'd immediately be the best rebounder on the team.

I see how their Diabolical Plan is coming together.  We trade back this year and draft either a 7 footer who will get abused down low or a pg who can't score at all.  We tank next season and end up with the first 2 picks in 2014.  We pick Andrew Wiggins #1 and Jabari Parker #2.  We automatically become the greatest team ever assembled as both are supposed to be the next Lebron.  We also change our name to the Charlotte Hornets beginning in the 2014-15 season. 

 

Or the Lakers don't make the playoffs next season since Kobe will be hurt and David Stern rigs the lottery and Andrew Wiggins ends up in LA.

is it sad that scenario 2 seems more legit?

    • The coaches can't figure out what to do with BY9 much less Leggette
    • There is a lot of talk about his IQ and his commitment to the game and this and that and no one can firmly say one way or another unless they are with him day to day. Not to mention the standards don't jive with the presented reasoning for defending Bryce Young’s rookie season and subsequent beginning of his sophomore season and third season to where we are now 40+ games as he is finally beginning to string together better QB play. When I think of Legette present day I think back to Ted Ginn being a pretty significant bust with the Dolphins as a 9th overall pick and then coming to Carolina (twice) and still struggling with the same mental errors on the field and Cam Newton going back to him again and again and again and even going to a Super Bowl with him as the #1 WR. Deactivating him is weak. Figure something out to his strengths for the rest of the season and reassess in the offseason.
    • I think the season has been a success.  I try to look back at what I said would be a successful season before week 1 and we have reached that.  The success though has you wanting more haha.  But we've had improvements and are right there fighting.  Bryce has improved which was a big thing we needed.  Hope we improves more obviously.  But I agree with others about Evero, unless we have an offense putting up 30 points a game I don't like this type of defense he has.  No pressure either.  The biggest issues I see with this team are, zero pressure on the QB, soft zones, and the horrible special teams play on kickoffs/return coverage.  So I wouldn't mind replacing Evero if someone better is available and definitely get someone new running special teams.  When you combine Evero's defense and the fact we allow teams such good field position often it's a bad match.  Overall, we have won 8 games which is crazy.
