Jason Kapono was going to be the really good player picked out of the expansion draft, Gerald Wallace would be a really good role player.
Rodney White falls to the Pistons at 9 back in 2001(?), "oh my god this is great for us".
Didn't like the Jared Dudley pick, thought that Charlotte should've picked Morris Almond.
I thought that Ramon Sessions would turn out to be a mistake.
I thought that Charlotte should've picked an expensive (but talented) big like Jerome Williams (was already injured, fell off from 2004 on) or Antonio Davis (we would've had to have paid him $25 mil over 2 years to not do anything to our win-loss record). Also they should've considered a guy like Jerry Stackhouse (UNC alum, $24 mil over 3 years. He played 56, 55, and 67 games in those years) to give us an offensive threat. Teams would just doubled off someone else to surround him. Of course he would also play one on one ball, with a poor fg%....you know it is best I was wrong on this one.
That being said, I was right about the Bobcats should've amnestied Thomas last year and should've put a small bid on Andray Blatche (nets basically got him for the minimum).
And i somehow guessed the Matt Carroll for Hakim Warrick trade. Thank you espn trade machine.

Re: Admit you were wrong.
I thought deron williams was the weakest of the three point guards in that draft and would eat his way out of the league. I though Oden was going to be a beast and was hoping and praying the bobcats would get the first pick.

Also, when you bet me $50 that he would average 12ppg for an nba team last season. Do you ever intend to pay up on that?

Re: Admit you were wrong.
Oden would have been a beast if not for injuries. You can just watch his college season and see what a special player he was. The most gifted big man in the modern era. It really is a shame about his knees. You have to feel really bad for him. I'm sure he would even take Byron Mullens body at this point.

I thought Okafor was going to be more dominant defensively than he was and I thought Tyrus was going to have more of an impact than he did.

Re: Admit you were wrong.
^I think it's hilarious. But yeah, debo seemingly disappears every time he posts, so I doubt he's gonna own up to it.

I'm okay with the hounding. If you're not going to pay up on a bet the least that should happen is public shaming.
