Will Silas bring us luck tonight?

The NBA draft lottery is decided tonight during halftime of the Mavs game. Paul Silas will be representing the Bobcats as fans pray to the basketball gods in hopes that the ping pong balls can fall our way once again.

We are projected to end up with the 9th overall pick and have around a 3% chance of moving into the top 3. This may sound like a stretch but the last time Paul Silas went to the draft for a Charlotte franchise was when he coached the Hornets. We were projected to end up with the 13th pick and were lucky enough to land the third overall pick and Baron Davis.

Let's hope Silas can bring us back another top 3!

Draft Lottery - 830pm Eastern

Mavs vs Thunder - 900pm Eastern

The 'Cats have gotten the shaft in the lottery since their inception...I will be happy as long as we don't go down. I would be estatic if we moved up in anyway.

    • After the Chiefs game a 6'5 X would really help in the Red zone. I would also love to add Slayton in FA 
    • But again, you can restock a defense through free agency much easier than offensive skill positions. Spend all our cap space on defense, take a true elite prospect who also happens to fit a position of need in T-Mac, and then use the rest of our picks on defense. Again, every season there’s a smattering of great DL, LB, and DB options in free agency, a Top 10 WR never hits free agency, ever.  The only way you get one is through the draft or giving up 1st round picks in a trade for one. If he’s there when we’re on the clock, he has to be the pick, he’s just that good.  
    • It must be an early Christmas for JT O'Sullivan having Thielen back so he could put a coal in Thielen's stocking every chance he gets.  Honestly, the biggest surprise is not so much the anticipation. There were those moments here and there last year as well. It's that even that one positive quality he had seemingly vanished his first two games to where it looked like it was all but over, only for it to start coming back some until you get exclamation points all over this game film. And some of those throws were under a lot of duress, something I feel is something new. Finally, those deeper shots are starting to land. Not all of them, but enough that defenses may have to start respecting them. No guarantees whether this will end up as more of anomaly but I certainly hope it isn't. The Green Bay game was a sampler of what BY could be. Against KC, we got a meal. If we could start getting these meals regularly, we might actually have something to work with here.
