Charlotte Bobcats 2013 Las Vegas Summer League Thread


Recommended Posts

Ok I think I got it figured out...

 

- If the D-League Select team beats Dallas we will be the 6th seed in the tournament and play the winner of the 11th seed and 22nd seed game on Thursday at 6:00 P.M.

 

- If Dallas beats the D-League Select team we will be the 5th seed in the tournament and play the winner of the 12th seed and 21st seed game on Thursday at 6:30 P.M.

 

For the sake of not wanting to watch the game online, I think our best bet is to hope that the D-League Select team beats the Mavericks because based on the current setup, it looks like NBA TV is broadcasting the games that are the top of each our (for example: 4 PM, 6 PM, 8 PM, and 10 PM).

 

Note: If we get the 5th seed and you want to watch our game on a good stream, you will have to pay $5.00 for NBA Summer League Live.

Looks like McLemore finally showed up (26 points), but I am glad we drafted Zeller instead. 

 

Yeah, didn't see that until the end of the game.  I was still surprised, every minute I was watching he looked horrible. 

 

But, I expect that to kind of be who he is over an entire season - several games of horrible shooting, very few points, followed by an occasional 20+ point night, but nothing you can depend on.

Here's an article on Bobcats Summer League Prospect Henry Sims...

 

What I take most from this article is the fact that Coach Cliff is going to give some of the prospects from time on the floor now. I hope he still lets our roster players play their minutes because at the end of the day I want to win that damn championship lol.

The Bobcats, 2-1 this summer, have at least two additional games in Las Vegas, more if they advance in the tournament-style draw. Clifford said he has accomplished what he set out to do with the contract players, and will give the tryout guys more minutes in the remaining games.

 

“We haven’t had the chance to give him the minutes he really deserves,” Clifford said of Sims. “He’s very smart, he’s a good worker and he’s very skilled. I would think he has a great chance to be on an NBA roster.”

 

It looks like we're finally going to see guys like Jamie Skeen, Rodney McGruder, Nick Barbour, Soloman Jones, and Deron Washington.

Understandable, but I'm sure the guys want to win.

If coaches are gonna sit their regulars after three games, then they might as well only play three games.

Also MKG got hurt last year and it didn't hamper him from being ready for the NBA season.

And if they get hurt, at least they are getting hurt playing basketball and not doing something stupid.

Ok, I think I figured it out...

 

The Bobcats will be the 5th seed because the head-to-head tie breaker only applies to teams you directly face not common opponents. The Bobcats were awarded the fifth seed over Toronto based on point differential and were higher seeded than the Cavaliers, Lakers, Bucks, Spurs, and Pelicans due to the point scoring system.

 

So here it is... (I think)

 

Thursday, 6:30 P.M.

 

#5 Charlotte Bobcats vs. #12 Washington Wizards/#21 Memphis Grizzlies

    • Dude, I think I might be having Jarvy withdrawals... I ripped the sleeves off of all of my t-shirts in my sleep last night. Every bite of my Alpha-Bita cereal spelled Seth, this morning. And, I took 7 naps before lunch. I'm losing it guys! Jarvy's Jaunty Band of Jaggoffs are getting more play than he is... smh Team Canada doesn't treasure Jarvis the way he deserves. He should take his band down to Liechtenstein, get a bag of passports, and start his own Olympic team! The raw animal magnetism of Jarvilicious will bring in a handful of NHLers on its own. And, since the IOC believes in collective punishment, he could have his pick of the rookies. Then, just fill out the rest of the roster with the maple blooded great white northerners who couldn't make the top squad. Can't trust this assembled awesomery to just any old Liechtensteinien with a clipboard and a whistle. Gotta bring in a legend worthy of this gold medal gambit. A hockey HOFer with the balls to buck the system and the aura to match our maverick. Huere geil, Vaduz!!! 2030 Gold Medal guaranteed!
    • Tennessee isn't trading a QB on a 2nd round contract that has starting experience.  That's bad business.
    • OT is the top priority as it is both an immediate and future need.  I wouldn't be past trading up slightly to get the guy we want.  You need that rookie contract right now.  Icky is a dead 17.5 million for the season.  Morton is 20+ mil for the season, Hunt is 20+ mil for the season.  There needs to be forward thinking regarding the future.   Caleb Lomu is a left Tackle, he's a solid prospect, he may be the best pick for us now and in the future.  I would seriously consider cutting Hunt after 2026, and let Lomu and Icky fight for the LT job, loser moves inside.  Icky's future may be at guard after this injury anyway.  If Damien Lewis keeps up his level of play he will need to be paid sooner rather than later.  Yosh and BC can be our top two depth OL at an affordable price.  You will need to look at OT again in 2027. Getting an EDGE for the sake of getting an EDGE outside of the top 10 is pretty risky.  I wouldn't be against eyeing someone like Cashius Howell, Derrick Moore, or TJ Parker in the 2nd (even if we trade a future pick to move up) or DDS in the third. I'd love to see us try to sign both Leo Chenal and Matt Millano in FA.   Chenal for the blitzing element we are missing from our LB corps and Millano for his elite coverage.  They could both work in tandem.  Remember, our FO has deep ties to both KC and Buffalo. I love thinking about the draft, but until Free Agency hits, we are clueless.  Looking at the strength of FA and the draft, OL is priority #1, LB #2, and EDGE #3.  We know what happens to Bryce when protection falls apart.
