    Swap with Denver for the 20th overall selection in exchange for a "protected first round pick in 2009."

    Interesting....

    I heard they were interested in Hibbard, but who knows if he's there at 20..maybe packaging 20 and 9 for...3 ?

    well, it looks like they have just given themselves more windows of opportunity.

    They can not afford to blow it. No matter what they do, this draft is crucial for them.

    They need to make some noise next season. Despite adding a quality player in Richardson they took a step back this past year....

    Looks like they might be trying to make a move up to grab Beasley.

    New Orleans traded their 1st rounder to someone today for cash considerations. George Shinns way of saying I don't want to sign on to paying guarentee money to someone else

    They're not making a play for Beasley, don't be ridiculous. Larry Brown already said that this is because they want a point guard and a big man in the first round. Say hello to Hibbert at #20, unfortunately. Brown will get the Bobcats to win more games playing slowdown, defensive-oriented ugly ball, but it will suck to watch.

    Well, typically the teams that win the championships in the National Garbage League are the ones that actually play defense.

    Good news is, there are no Tar Heels to waste picks on.
