ANTHONY BENNETT

UNLV PF, 6'7 240 LBS

Bennett is a bit of a tweener just like another UNLV product who played for the Hornets in Larry Johnson, but I believe that his athleticism, versatility, and potential is too much to like. He will be able to solidify the PF position in the NBA level. Bennett will bring a lot of offensive power, and energy in addition to Kemba and MKG. His defense can be questioned, but the kid is a good re-bounder and scorer. Bennett is going to be a "monster" and create havoc in the paint. We can't fug this pick up and Anthony Bennett is the answer for the future.

He has the all around game and explosiveness you want..but damn he has a Duwan Blair(undersized Power Forward) quality that sucks...this draft is awful. Still like Len better..

 

Yea, physically he is very similar to Blair but it would be a shame to say that Bennett is Blair 2.0.

He didnt show up in the tourney. Didn't they lose round one? If he can be better then millsap then sure take him

 

Yea, UNLV loss to Cal 64-61 in the 2nd round. He had 15 points and 11 boards; still not bad. I don't like paying too much attention at players in the tournament. A good player is a good player, no matter if they perform badly in big scenes. I'm not going to degrade McLemore or Bennett with their performances in the tournament, because I know they can ball. Let's remember that these kids are playing their first big tournament in the college level.

Hearing that John Wall might prefer Bennett over Porter. That would really suck if Noel, McLemore, and Bennett all goes Top3.

 

I agree, this would be my "worst case scenario" for the Bobcats, but I still think walking away with Olidipo or Len at #4 isn't bad and could end up being a blessing in disguise not going for the potential of the other 3 guys and taking a low risk prospect.

 

I am not trying to open a can of worms, but if Otto Porter slips to #4 which is seemingly very possible, is he an option for the Bobcats if we plan to resign Gerald Henderson?

    • What you are saying isn't always true and I'll give you several examples to demonstrate this. 1) The best player on the board at the end of in round 1 by all consensus is RB (top 15 player in draft who slips b/c of the devaluation of the RB position). Your team is in desperate need of a LT because the current one is getting your QB killed. You already have a serviceable RB in place. The LT has a 2nd round grade and you have the first pick on day 2 of the draft Who do you choose? 2) Your run defense was abysmal the previous season. A DT in round 2 does not provide much in terms of pass rush, but most reports have him rated as the best pure run stuffing DT in the draft. The two highest rated players on your board at the time are a TE and tweener at OLB/DE who slipped into round 2 after a run on WR's. Who do you choose? 3) Your pass rush rush is solid across the board. You even have guy coming off of the bench to provide production. Your secondary in below average. No Safety on the roster is a difference maker and as a unit the squad doesn't have an INT. The highest rated player on the board is a DE. The 5th highest rated player on the board is a an intelligent ball hawking Safety. Which player would make the team immediately better?  1) I think the BPA logic applies when your team is solid across the board and you can afford to draft for depth 2) I think it also applies when your team stinks and any solid player will be an immediate upgrade over what you already have. I agree that you should NEVER reach for a player when you are need at a position like we did for Bryce Young. But I also think if there's is a player on the board that will fill a glaring weakness you need to take him even if a player with a higher over all ranking is available at another position (which isn't a need)  
    • Bryce Young excels at dividing Panthers fans. That seems to be what he's best at.
