Bobcats War Room - 2008 Draft - Pick #26

August Us Seazr · Post #1 » by **August Us Seazr** » Sun May 25, 2008 3:00 am

Well, back to the polls! I have been out for a couple of days with a bad schedule and even worse...stubborn computer. I hope we can get some votes in now. Saturday and Sunday- Pick # 26. The bottom five of the first round begins.

If we were to play this pick on draft night, we will be dealing with San Antonio to get it. I dare say that if we trade with the Spurs, we would probably not be able to shake off one of their core players. But trying would be fun. :nod:

To fill you in, in case you haven't caught the summary thread- We had another tie at # 25. Tywon Lawson of North Carolina survived the latest of my reverse raffles to get us a winner. And if you voted for Billy Walker, better luck this time!

33 days until draft. 1 day to vote. 9 names to choose from. Good luck, gentlemen.

Thompson wasn't flying high for us, so I thought I'd go another way. With the 9 loaded with 2s and 3s, I limited my consideration to what we need- PG, PF, or C. Went with the local PF, J. J. Hickson.

Funny thing, when these mock drafts get updated, some interesting things happen. Last week, Hickson was missing on 2 of my 5 mocks that I am monitoring. This week, he reappears strongly. E4, are you with us? Your guy is here! And as some move up the board, others fall. Stay tuned everybody. If a player you like isn't here today, he may be tomorrow.

Claw on!

THIS is the way I always hoped the write-in spot would work- On a light voting day, write in votes forged a tie with one of the "9". A tie??????!! :clap:

You can believe that I'm l o v i n g this.

So, from the blue write-in corner we have Bill(y) "Sky"Walker of Kansas State University. In the red ballot corner we have J.J. Hickson of North Carolina State. The hat with the 4 slips, please.

In our reverse raffle- 4 slips - first one:

Walker.

Second one:

Walker.

Last two slips in the hat are for J. J. Hickson. Our selection at # 26.

Walker will be on the ballot tonight, even though he is # 19 by the five mocks I am guided by. So, fear not, Walker fans- the Skyman will be around one more time for # 27. Next thread shortly.
