NBA Free Agency: Al Jefferson’s Meeting with Charlotte Bobcats Not Expected to be Productive

By: Josh Hill

 

Free agent forward Al Jefferson is expected to meet with the Charlotte Bobcats on Wednesday but not much is expected to come of it. Yahoo! Sports guru Adrian Wojnarowski first reported that the Bobcats will be meeting with Jefferson but Bobcats beat writer Rick Bonnell says that fans shouldn’t get too excited about what might happen.

Can confirm Al Jefferson is scheduled to visit Bobcats Wednesday. This sounds like more than a passing thing.

 

6:21 PM - 1 Jul 2013

 

 

Jefferson is expected to draw some serious interest on the open market but even if he only had a few teams interested in him, the chances he would put Charlotte at the top of his destination list is laughable at best. Jefferson is one of two big name free agents the Utah Jazz might be losing this offseason and it appears they’re more dedicated to hanging onto Paul Millsap than they are Jefferson.

 

That being said, if Jefferson is willing to come back to the Jazz, their inability to re-sign Millsap might push them towards seeing what’s possible with Jefferson.

 

Charlotte seems to be looking for the future and that might include a plan to tank in an effort to draft Andrew Wiggins in next year’s draft. But nothing is a sure thing in the NBA it seems — well beyond the fact that Jefferson won’t be signing in Charlotte unless he’s seriously convinced and even then it’s a long shot.

This sounds like more than a passing thing means the Cats are serious about trying to sign Jefferson...

    • Yep. It was an obvious red flag that a lot of people ignored. The results/scores in preseason don’t matter, but individual performance very much does and individually, we looked like the least talented team in the league and it carried over.
    • Sorry, but in 2015, we didn’t look like poo to the extent of 2023. People who said it’s just preseason were completely wrong. Simple as that. 2015 was a veteran lead team. It was Cam’s 5th year and Luke’s 4th. Even our OL was 80% the same (added Oher) as the great run to finish 2014 with a playoff win. That year can be labeled as preseason doesn’t matter because I’m sure we rested vets and well, Ron/Mike weren’t putting in special plays, etc. I absolutely don’t recall a bunch of us saying that Turner was getting killed on one on ones or that Luke was completely out of position or that Norman was hurt again but probably fine. The only thing that was right about the 2023 preseason is that the minority of us who saw it, were correct that we A) should have been making Young and others play 100% of the reps as there was nothing to hide and B) the preseason means nothing was a bunch of BS trying to stay optimistic when it was obvious that we had way less good talent than the rest of the NFL.
    • You are telling me Paul Maurice is a better coach than Rod??? Yes!!!  It’s because he plays a better system and has a better goalie.   Our system sucks in playoffs and he refuses to roll with Koochie. Dallas cowboys level poo
