Bobcats War Room- Pick 13 for 2009

August Us Seazr · Post #1 » by **August Us Seazr** » Thu May 21, 2009 6:01 pm

We have now reached the point where if we get to draft here, we have made a trade with someone. At this point, probably the Indiana Pacers.

Gone from the Big Board are:
Blake Griffin
Ricky Rubio
James Harden
Demar DeRozan
Tyreke Evans
Hasheem Thabeet
Jordan Hill
Terrence Williams
Earl Clark
Stephen Curry
Brandon Jennings
and Gerald Henderson, our latest Man of the Day at pick # 12 (Our current draft destination).

So, if these guys are gone, and we have traded for the 13th pick, the hypothetical question is asked... Who do the Bobcats take? Let us have your take on this. Nine names are provided. Give us your best answer. Answers on Friday. Claw on.

(To the tune of the 12 days of Christmas...)
5 Point Guards,
2 Power Forwards,
1 Shooting Guard,
1 Useless Center...

And DeJuan Blair is the partridge in my pear tree!

I've caught up on the guys I don't really know about... and I'm going Holiday here. I think Blair fits a need, but isn't the best prospect available at this spot. If I had done my homework, I probably would've been voting for Jrue earlier. He's big for a pg, defensive minded, athletic... all things LB would love.

Agreed. I vote Holiday.

its a shame we dont need a pg in this draft. so many nice options available in our range.

Way to inadvertently stir the "we should've drafted Lopez" pot.

Draft a PG, then sign-and-trade Felton for something we do need.

Problem solved.

It was worth passing on Lopez just to watch him cry.

I wanted D. J. from the start. Glad we have him. Don't want to trade him. Now to put someone else beside him that will help the Bobcats as much as D. J. has.

If we get lucky at 13, we go with DaJuan Blair.
