BoBCats New Lineup.
PG:Deron Williams/DJ Augustine
SG:Vince Carter/Matt Carroll
SF:Corey Maggette/Reggie Williams
PF:Antawn Jamison/DJ White/Tyrus Thomas
C:Brook Lopez/Byron Mullens

Pretty Solid Lineup imo and would get the bobcats in the playoffs in the East.

What You Think?

Deron Williams won't play for the Bobcats. Nets won't give away their best players for that package. And DJ Augustine would be an overpaid back up.

Why would they want to? Rich Cho wants to build a sustainable model similar to the Thunder. He's not gonna rush this process.

uh that team couldnt guard my kid's Y team. No way you make the playoffs running that out there every night. Also no chance Deron signs there.

Maggette and Jamison aren't even acceptable backups at this point.

You have at most 5 credible rotation players in that lineup: Williams, Lopez, Augustine (backup quality PG) Carter (backup SG/SF) and maybe Thomas or Reggie Williams.

With only 2 starters not among the worst in the league and a weak bench even Deron + Howard would struggle to make the playoffs.

Magette and Jamison are def backup quality players and both are more rotation worthy than Vince Carter. Team is still terrible of course but Maggette and Jamison can still score and that skill will always have value.

When I read the title, I chuckled.
When I read the thread, I laughed.

Deron would never go to the Bobcats.

Dwill and #18, rights to Memphis 1st in 13' for #2

Walker
Henderson
*Miller/Harkless
DWilliams
Biyombo

is better then Walker,henderson,MKG,White,Biyombo

I dont think u can be a playoff team next year... but could have a starting 5 under 23 all really good players, none great.. yet

Yea we don't want to be a playoffs team next season...the bobcats are on a slow build

The Cats aren't going to try to be a playoff team next year, nor should they. Recent history has pretty much shown that the only way to get to contender status is to build slowly through the draft and make smart trades - look at OKC, San Antonio, Chicago; even Boston wouldn't have been in a position to trade for KG and Ray if they hadn't spent several years building and developing young assets. The only one that doesn't fit the rule is Miami, for obvious reasons.

That team wouldn't make the playoffs anyhow. They play terrible D and the lineup is filled with shot jackers who won't share the ball.

CHAR isn't far enough under the salary cap to take on about $27 million and only send out $5.3 million.

Other than that...

No way that would happen with Gay's contract.

I like Gay as a player but no team that wants to rebuild properly would take on a contract like that unless it was a superstar.

Until MJ gets out of the way, expect to be a cellar dweller. Loved him as a player but we have better instincts for talent evaluation. I saw some love for Kemba Walker on the Houston board. Package him with something else Charlotte wants off the books for Lowry and Dalembert's unguaranteed deal to hasten tearing it down and building it right. Kemba is a bust in waiting. This would allow them to trade Augustin in a sign and trade and unload another toxic contract in the process for an expiring and some picks. I love the idea of signing Jamison for one year on the cheap and covering some of his warts with a defensive center and wing up front.

Step 1: Lobby NBA to expand playoffs to include all 30 teams.

Success!

Good god this whole thread blows.

Vince Carter for Gerald Henderson? Seriously?

Wow! We finally agree on something.

Worst defensive team in the NBA.
