Cats Finish Strong, Now to the Offseason (Post Your Ideal Offseason)


Recommended Posts

Well another season has come and gone, this one was full of high's and low's but when push came to shove, the Bobcats truly did fight in every game they played (a lot of the time they were just outmatched).

The team finished on a three game winning streak and in doing so they avoided the NBA cellar as the "worst team in the NBA name" now belongs to the Orlando Magic.

Now to the offseason, I want to see each of your ideal offseason's and once we have all the submissions, I will post a poll and we can vote on the best one.

Let's see them.

Oh and Go Cats... erm I mean Hornets!!! :cool:

First thing first, rebrand back to the Charlotte Hornets!

Next, win that no.1 pick in the lottery this year. Take Ben McLemore, one who I truly think can become an All Star player in the future and a tremendous player to pair with Kemba and MKG. I also believe McLemore is a better SG than Beal and Waiters of last year draft.

I'm not sure how big we're going to make a splash into Free Agency, and I wouldnt really care. I want to suffer one more year for a better draft class in 2014. I hope we land Portland's pick next year too.

My Ideal Off-season:

Resign/Walk

- resign Josh McRoberts

- resign Jannero Pargo

- walk Gerald Henderson (only resign if he takes 5.5 mil or less)

- walk Byron Mullens

-walk Reggie Williams

- Amnesty Tyrus Thomas

- walk Ben Gordon

- walk Gana Diop

Draft: ( we are only getting 1 pick)

Ben McLemore- Great shooter who can pass and rebound. Fits Very well with Kemba and MKG

FA:

sign- Paul Millsap

sign- Nikola Pekovic

sign- Anthony Morrow

sign- Brandon Rush

Line-up

PG- Kemba, Sessions, Pargo

SG- McLemore, Morrow, Brandon Rush

SF- MKG, Taylor

PF- Millsap, Biz, Jeff Adrian

C- Pekovic, McRoberts, Haywood

Trade Gordon for someone else's bad contract and a future 1st rounder.

Get better and continue to develop talent through next season, then finally hit the lottery in 2014 with 3-4 picks in the first round.

Playoff's for at least 10 years from that draft and 3-4 picks in the top 15.

That right there is a playoff team IMHO...a 6,7,8 seed though.

We have to suck for at least one more year. Still no "superstar" on the team. Kemba and MKG (and Biz for that matter) are VERY interesting pieces to the puzzle, but we don't have that one guy yet that we need. Gotta hold off from the treadmill-type signing (Jefferson, Millsap, Pekovic, etc) until we get the guy that's gonna carry this team.

Yeah what kman said would be a good off season...and as also said, the Bobcats would be looking at a 6,7,8 seed, no lottery pick, and a ceiling of where they were during the Gerald Wallace years. It's the NBA...gotta find a Superstar, if not 2. Having Kemba, MKG, and a couple of decent but overpriced FA signings will do nothing but set the franchise back or turn them into the Atlanta Hawks. No thanks.

    • The reality though is that there just isn't a traditional #1 pick type of player in this draft to begin with. He might have been below Marvin last year, but I don't think he'd have been below Nabers. And if you think he disappears in some college games, then you're only looking at the box scores, I guarantee you not a single NFL GM will say he disappears in games when watching the tape. Arizona's offense is a MESS this year, the new coaching staff is beyond bad and the fanbase is screaming for them all to be fired, our OL is awful, our QB is playing like utter garbage, and we don't have another weapon to attract any defensive attention.  Teams are double and triple teaming him on almost every snap, and when combined with the OL and QB issues, it's just impossible to get him the ball sometimes.  And even when our QB forces the pass to him, half the time it's not even catchable given how poor he's been playing. And even despite all that, he's still 3rd in the nation in yards. I've also seen more WR rankings having Burden over Hunter than I have seen Hunter over T-Mac.  If we had a true outside #1 WR, then taking someone like Hunter (or Burden) instead of T-Mac would make more sense as if Hunter were to play WR in the NFL, he'd more likely be used a slot guy like Godwin or Kupp.   There's a reason most mocks/analysts who don't list Hunter as a CB/WR (or just Athlete) list him as a CB.  Because it's his better position and the side of the ball he's more likely to play in the NFL, partially due to his wire thin frame, I don't see him holding up long term as a WR.
    • This was a good breakdown from Daniels.  Last year has had a lasting impact on Young. He still isn't getting the time needed from the OL - the OL we have is made to establish the run and for the run to be in play.  We get behind and have to throw all game we are doomed with this O-line. His receivers have to catch the ball when he makes a good throw to them, he can't have them dropping his good passes. Why are we running 4 slants all toward the same direction?  Why a triple option on 4th and 1? That's on the coaches. Bryce gets hurried and starts slinging the ball where it shouldn't be thrown, more study and recognition from him are needed.  Bryce doesn't step up in the pocket and throws too soon and unbalanced.  He over and under throws the ball because of it.  That's on him.  If the pocket isn't there and he can't get his base set he needs to check down or "live to fight another day." He has been thrown to the wolves and has lost his confidence.  This team doesn't have much, if any, talent and it's a cluster.  I think he can still be an NFL QB.  Maybe not a QB1 in the short term, but if he has a chance with better coaching and personnel he may be better than we are giving him credit for. I think we ruined him last year and have not fixed anything to help him this year.  If we can't run or get way behind all NFL defenses are coming after him.  Dalton has more respect and defenses didn't always sell out to get to him because he'd hit a quick slant, screen, or check down because he has the experience to know what's coming and what to do. Just my 2 cents.
    • All depends on who the backup is. Josh Allen probably would have been benched too if there were better backups than Matt Barkley and Nate peterman.
