    Wouldn't move Marvin to PF unless really getting whipped by a transition team. I certainly think that he's the best pro prospect of UNC players, yes. His range helps, and could draw people out of the paint without


    Brain, I'm assuming a center, but not necessarily Bogut. Could as easily be one of those middle-eastern slugs middle-round, but I'm figuring we develop someone there this year.

    right on the money. the bobcritters could have won at last 5 games or more with one player who can do that. chris paul could have won them five games this year. Okafor is a solid pf and Brezec is very underated. hes 7-2 and can shoot decent. hes more than capable of holding down the center spot until we get lucky enough to ever get a franchise center. they need scorers and shooters. people who when they draw contact can at least knock down a few free throws. they need a 2 guard. Hart and co. just don't do much for me.

    The Hornets have one more ball than the Bobcats. They split the total amount of number two and number three, so the "advantage" of one pick over the other is basically nil. The part that would screw the Bobcats is if neither New Orleans or Atlanta moved into the top three, our worst case pick is 6 rather than five.

    The balls from the Cleveland pick are separate and statistically don't impact the 2/3 battle, which statistically is basically a tie anyway.

    I'm hoping like hell that 14 pick comes through, but it's either top 3 or 14 for that pick.

    I'd be thrilled with either Marvin Williams or Chris Paul (biased towards the PG), but don't be surprised. Chances are, one or two of the top three (Atl, Char, NO) won't be in the top three picks. Hopefully the Cats aren't the ones left outside.

    the hornets have 1 more ball (177 to 176 i think) but the cavs get 6 or something. that means the bobcats have a higher chance of getting a top pick, tho indeed it is slim.

    if the cavs somehow land a top 3, the cats still have a pretty good chance of landing another top 3. how sick would that be?

    I would have to go with either of these with the top pick as well. Paul, because he will be one of the top PG's in the league in a year or two and well Williams just has way too much potential and isn't a bad player right now. He may not start his first year, but by year two he will and would be a nice 1-2 punch.

    What about taking Raymond Felton with the first pick.And with the 2nd pick take Hakim Warrick .Looking at one of the mock draft .I can see that this Draft is Very strong as far PG and PF goes But not a strong as far as SG SF C goes.I think the bobcats must take or Sign a SF and a SG.PG and PF we get a very good PF and PG in the draft.Btw if you want a very site for Mock Draft you should try this site http://www.nbadraft.net/index.asp

    That's too high to take Raymond. But I wouldn't have a problem taking him with the second first rounder provided a PG wasn't taken with the 1st.
