If the Bobcats do trade back...

...with Cleveland, and end up with #4 & 24, first of all, I'm going to be pissed if Washington picks Barnes at #3, which I have a sneaky suspicion they will; but if they don't, I would love for the Bobcats' 1st Round to look something like this:

#4 - Harrison Barnes

#24 - Perry Jones

Doubt that Jones would fall that far, but I've seen him in the early 20s, and nothing would be stopping Charlotte from making a deal (24 & 31) to move up a few more spots to get him.

I think a lineup of...

PG - Walker (or pick up one with some of that cap space)

SG - Henderson

SF - Barnes

PF - Jones

C - Biyombo

...would be good to enter next season with.

My comparison for Perry Jones & Biz in the paint would be Rasheed Wallace & Ben Wallace. Rasheed was taller, and more versatile, like Jones. Ben was shorter, but stronger, and a great rebounder and defender, like Biyombo could be.

Lol at Perry Jones falling to the 24th.

Apparently you didn't read the entire post. What part of "Doubt that Jones would fall that far, but I've seen him in the early 20s, and nothing would be stopping Charlotte from making a deal (24 & 31) to move up a few more spots to get him" don't you understand?

I don't understand how trading back when they just had the worst season in NBA history? They have so many holes to fill.

How do you not understand it when you answered your own question? They have a lot of holes to fill so moving back to spots will also allow them to get an extra pick in the draft thus acquire more assets. It really isn't rocket science. Besides the talents from the 2-5 spots in the draft will be about the same. And like you said, we have a lot of holes to fill so it really doesn't matter which of those guys we take

If they trade back & let the 2 potential stars in Beal & Barnes get drafted they deserve a role player in Robinson or MKG. No way in hell they trade #2. Jordan & Cho will draft the guy they feel will become the best pro.

This whole thing is stupid because Washington will go Robinson before Barnes. They just picked up Ariza and drafted Chris Singelton last year.

If we do get the 4th and 24th pick I could see the draft being

Barnes and Feb Melo.

Cleveland will pick Barnes if we give them the chance.

      Bryce QB School Week 12

      By trucpfan · Posted

      This is a wild statement it’s to late to save his season with six games left? That mountain of bad film as a rookie with trash coaching a weak azz line and dismal WRs. Guys that can’t catch on with other teams or guys traded to teams that are subpar at best. We put Bryce in a terrible situation to start his career does that matter to you or you feel he should’ve, as a rookie elevate this dumpster fire. If you’re giving him a fair assessment judge him off the last four games a good o-line decent WRs still not comparable to any other young QB WR room Hou (tank/nico..) Tua (Hill/Waddle) Caleb (Moore/Rome/Allen) let’s see what he can do with a decent structure around him for the next few weeks then let’s revisit how we’re going to grade or assess his performances.

      Bryce Young what a crazy statement

      By KSpan · Posted

      As a bit of counterpoint, if he wanted to continue his professional career then handling it like a mature adult was the only option. Dude had been playing like absolute ass and needed to own it. It's great that he did but it's not like he didn't have a large amount of self interest in doing so. Not picking on Bryce specifically here, as this applies to any player or even anyone struggling early in their career. And he still has a long way to go, but signs are positive.

      Ja'Tavion Sanders avoids serious injury

      By Captroop · Posted

      I agree he could still develop, but I think that could still be developed in practice. Just after a scary injury like that, I'm nervous to see him get reps in a live game situation when the best possible outcome is nothing more than worsening our draft selection. That said, I'm 100% not a doctor, so if he's clear to play, he wants to play, and there's no potential of aggravating this injury (which by all accounts it doesn't seem that is the case for this type of injury) then go for it, I guess.   But you hit the nail on the head. This draft class is really impressive. I can't remember the last time I was so impressed with a rookie that I'd actually prefer shutting him down. His game is so apparent that he doesn't need to prove anything at this point. Can't remember the last time that happened!
