Get rid of Rookies and sophmores? 

Post#1 » by Dexmor » Sun Mar 21, 2010 4:42 pm

It might sound crazy but we need to resign and possibly upgrade the team and get possibly a top 5-7 Bobcat in Ford (which he would be)

Tyrus Thomas 6-7 million
Raymond Felton 6-7 million
Larry Hughes-2-4 million
Graham-2-3 million
Theo Ratliff-2 million

They also need to get a team to take on Tyson Chandler's contract or Nazr's contract for a 2nd round pick to save money to resign those guys and to not be a luxary team and maybe to get T.J. Ford and keep Felton they can still pull that off with D.J.-Hendo-Nazr.

Maybe if they get rid of Nazr and Tyson maybe they keep Lexi but the young prospects I am reffering to do not include Ray-Ty- of course.


I think if we put

Henderson
Brown
Lexi
D.J.

in a package to a team under the cap who aren't getting a big time free agent like the Kings.

I think the Kings may take Tyson Chandler and Nazr if we throw in Gerald Henderson and Derrick Brown.
We don't need Henderson if we keep Graham and Hughes because Hendo is totally not neccasarry with our wings being Jackson-Wallace-Graham-Hughes plus 2 guys who can play sf in Diaw and Tyrus.

The Bobcats would be left with the core guys and have good luck and get rid of Tyson and Nazr for a 2nd round pick and buy a 2nd rounder they are left with

Centers 3 rotation C's
Diop-They should play him because A.they pay him alot n he is a good a 7 footer who can clog the lane, board and block shots. He can almost earn his money.
Theo-Still a good backup for another 2 years imo
Lexi-I think he will be ready to be a 10-15 minute player next year

Forwards 4 rotation F's

Diaw-Can play C also so they should shed Nazr and Tyson which is 20 million
Wallace-So good for Bobcats they should change the name to the Crash
Tyrus Thomas-the forward version of Camby and the future and now
Graham-Can also play sg.

Guard's 4 rotation G's

Felton
Jackson
D.J. or T.J. Ford if they can pull that off
Hughes

That is 11 good rotation players. If they can get an nba talent in the 2nd round that would be great of if they give away Tyson and somebody maybe they can get a player or 2 who can play.
Maybe pick up Mustafa Shukor and Kenny Thomas to fill out the team and have 13-15 players.

No TJ Ford is a headcase and he sucks, we shouldn't give away our future for him, stop trying to bring up that ridiculous notion

I would honestly look at it as a good offseason even if they lost all 4 1st and 2nd year guys and Tyson and Nazr if they resigned there 5 free agents and got T.J. Ford.

I would look at that as an upgrade.

Bobcats ideally need a third goto scorer to be championship complete and of course if they got go to guy that makes Jackson and Wallace 2nd and third but that isn't gonna happen and with there D and depth I think they really only need another guy you can put it in his hands and he can score for himself and make the game easier for others.
I think if the Bobcats kept there 5 free agents and got T.J. Ford they would be a hell of alot better next year then now.
They would no longer be offensively challenged and would be on the way to being the best defensive team in the game with Hughes and Tyrus having a full camp and another year of Brown.
They would have a double figure scorers at every spot but the C and 1 off the bench.
I think T.J. Ford would probably take the reigns as the starter cause he can score better and make plays better. He is the weaker defender but the offense would flow better.
They would also have the third best 1-2 pg punch outside of the Hornets and Raptors in Jack-Calderon. I don't count the Bulls cause Kirk is playing the 2 and does it well enough to be considered a 2 while playing it.
Don't get me wrong Deron Williams and guys like that are better but if you count the backup they have would have best depth.

TJ Ford is garbage. No way I'd trade DJ for him, let alone DJ, Hendo and Nazr

I think the Kings may take Tyson Chandler and Nazr if we throw in Gerald Henderson and Derrick Brown.

Stop bringing it up? Ford is very much in the picture with MJ liking him and him almost being here. This isn't some crazy idea of mine that I keep posting about.

I'm not so sure about re signing TT. I haven't watched every game here lately but from what i've seen he makes a lot of dumb decisions. he would definntly not be worth a lot of money.

This is probably unrealistic, plus he is injury prone but the player we should target this off is Andrew Bynum.

That is insane. Tyrus is so underrated. He hasn't even gotten used to the system and is playing very well here. He's a 23 year old pf who can play 3 positions rebounds extremely well, plays D and blocks shots.
We gave up a #1 pick for him but you think we shouldn't resign him? Do you think Adam Morrison was a good pick?
The Bobcats have just gotten to the point were they can make the playoffs and you advice down grading?
Wallace needs help rebounding. We have a pf who gets 4 rebounds a game. Our shotblockers are all unreliable.
He has been averaging after coming in after the deadline not knowing the offense and has averaged 11 points 7 rebounds 1 steal and 1.6 blocks in only 24 minutes. That's not worth resigning?
Are you a Bobcats fan for real?

I think the Lakers would do it if the Bobcats gave them Raymond Felton-Henderson-Brown-Tyson Chandler and Nazr and the Bobcats would have to take back Luke and I wouldn't do that trade at all.
I don't think he is the answer.

Honestly as you guys know I like the Lakers but I don't like Andrew Bynum. He is awfully injury prone and is very young to.
I wouldn't pull the trigger on that trade.

Maybe I haven't had enough to drink yet today, but there is a lot of wacky stuff going on in this thread. Andrew Bynum? Dump the young guys? TJ Ford? Dump TT? I'll have what you guys are having.

Well dumping the young guys is the only way to shed salary or to get a good pg if Ray leaves. T.J. Ford is a guy the owner of the team has always liked and wanted and they were in talks about.

Crazy things not resigning Tyrus Thomas. It's been a day since I read that and im still not over it. That guy is plain taking crazy pills. Bobcats resigning Tyrus is priority #1 and they obviously are gonna keep him.

Andrew Bynum talk is crazy for 2 reasons A.Lakers overrate him B.He is a lemon-injury prone.

I guess you are here the second season. I would happily trade you back :D You could be more useful for Bobcats as an ill-advising secret agent infiltrating other teams' boards :D
