Where will the Bobcats finish in the SE division? 3rd
Will the Bobcats make the playoffs (if so, what seed)? Sadly, no. The slow start dooms us
Who will play in the finals? Who will win? Hornets and Sixers (bet I am the only one with that pick)
Who will win MVP? King Jame

Who will win ROY? Oden
Which (Bobcat) players will be the biggest surprises? Felton. I still think he's going to have a good season
Which (Bobcat) players will be the biggest disappoinments? This is going to be a shocker, but Jrich. I think our expectations for him are too high.
Who will be the first Bobcat to be traded? Matty C
Who will start more games at PG? Not even close, Felton

Which jersey are you thinking of buying this year? None, already long Felts. Might get Ajinca if they sell 'em.

Will Mek's FT% finish above 65%? Big yes.

I'm thinking along your line Fats.

Agree with the W/L and 3rd SE because of the time I think the team will need to "get it". I also think Felton will get 41% but that's about it...maybe 42%. I think Swish will average around 22, Crash right at 20, Ammo a little less (unless Hammer is traded as you think...I'm guessing Ammo) but for the others that's about right.

And of course :love:

NATASHA

over Lindsey.

How many games will the Bobcats win?

41. I'm with AMCOOL on this one.

Which players will be the biggest disappoinments?

Oden

Which jersey are you thinking of buying this year?

I need to get a Morrison Orange to complete the trio. I want a Washington Gold one.

Will Ammo's FG% finish above 41%?

Yes. He's under pressure from Larry. He won't take too many dumb shots.

Who would you like to see get traded?
