    We are missing a bad ass center or point guard. We need Derrick Rose or the best or 2nd best center in the draft. If Hansbrough left early (he won't) then I bet the Bobcats pick him up with the 6-9 pick

    How dare those professionals try to actually win the games they play. They should know better

    Look, as a fan, I have enjoyed every win. However, losing the Chris Paul lottery by 2 games is still fresh in my mind. I bitch about it every year, and it has nothing to do with trying. I just find it weird that the Cats seem to peak at the end of the season, we'll see what they do now that Wallace has likely shut it down.

    If we draft Hansbrough I'd be sick, he's not what we need (unless we don't keep Okafor.) I can't see those two coexisting, someone would lose a tooth with all the flailing post moves lol.

    Blow another #1 pick? Richardson has been fantastic and they got ridiculously good quality in Jared Dudley.

    I think he meant they will not have a chance (or very little) to get the 1 overall.

    I remember us trading Brandon Wright for Jason Richardson and thinking thank God we made the right move and the Bobcats got crucified by a lot of the ESPN "Analysts". Stephen A. Smith said it was a terrible thing to get rid of Wright, and I thought it was one of the few things they did right. Rose will go top 5 so I doubt we get him. We'll probably get some Eurotrash who ends up sucking ass

    Rose will go #2 right behind Beasley. He may even go first if that team needs a point guard. Rose will be a superstar in the NBA

    Well its hard to say if that was the right move at this point. Wright needed to stay in college AT LEAST one more year. He was drafted on potential in the future, not what he can do right now. But this team probably would have been the worst teams in the league without Richardson this year.

    They did happen to 31 plus games which isn't that bad considering the problems for them this year, several injuries, the bad PG experiment for most of the year, a bad coach. Felton did a lot better distributing the ball once JM was traded, but he must IMPROVE his shot.

    It will be interesting to see what they do in the draft and off season moves. Morrison and May could possibly be an X factor if one or both can come back healthy and contribute. I still think they need a real superstar to build around though, I just don't think Richardson or Wallace are that player.

    Yeah I'm not so quick to say we won the Richardson/Wright trade either, but it certainly won't be a bust like the prognosticators were saying on draft night. There's no reason to think J-Rich can't even get better in my opinion, his defense is underrated and his rebounding is excellent for his position. If he can get a little more consistency on his jumper from night to night he's a borderline all-star. I'm very happy with the trade, but I'm not going to call Wright a bust yet. He could still blossom into an amazing player.

    Of course, he nearly killed Monte Ellis in the preseason, so there's that. But he didn't lol
