I still think we're going to get in the playoffs.
Miami is skidding with Wade banged up and they can't win a lot of games unless he's 100%
The bucks seem to be playing better ball right now which is scary because they're the next easiest team to pass.
The bulls and toro are going to be tough to catch at this point, so i definitely don't want to rely on them falling apart.
I just feel like this team has the chemistry to really get on a roll and rattle off some tough wins. It would REALLY help if we could get either Nazr or Chandler back though.
We've got a few tough games here so if we can just hold serve long enough to get back into our softer schedule I think we'll sneak in.
At that point anything can happen because we clearly matchup well with the Lebrons.... I'd rather take them on than the Magic for sure. 3/2/2010 6:12:50 PM |

One good thing about missing the playoffs -- there would be no reason not to start the franchise over. New owner = new name, new colors, a few new players? We've got the coach and the roster to make a strong push next year for the playoffs (or so it seems).
Then we can pretend the whole Charlotte Bobcat experiment was just a bad dream. 3/4/2010 1:47:39 PM |

Yeah but...
if we miss the playoffs and have the best or second best record of any team not to make them, we lose our pick
Either play better and make them, or play shitty enough to drop to 12 worst record in the league

wow, i thought itd be 225-250k that is a surprising number if its true.
i bet other owners around the league are freaking out at the news.
^^ without looking at the standings im pretty sure there are a few teams in the west like houston, memphis who are a good bit ahead of us.
Anyway I'd rather them take a 12-17 pick this year then keep carrying this thing forward and potentially losing a top pick in a few seasons... 3/4/2010 5:11:17 PM |
Slave Famous Become Wrath 34079 Posts user info edit post |
We just don't understand the mathematics of late season tanking
Like a few years back if we lost our last game, we would have no worse than the 4th pick
If we won, we would have to flip a coin for 4 or 5
We won, than lost the coin toss and picked 5th and got Felton
New Orleans picked 4 and got Paul 3/4/2010 5:16:38 PM |

^ yeah that was really dumb. it was also dumb not to agree to trade the 5 and 13 for the 3 from portland and take deron or paul. 3/4/2010 5:25:48 PM |

If only Orlando had selected Okafor... 3/4/2010 5:29:58 PM |
Slave Famous Become Wrath 34079 Posts user info edit post |
The lols of what if with Bobcats drafts:
2003: We miss the best draft of all time by 1 year...we would have had the 4th pick and surely taken Bosh
2004: Howard instead of Okafor
2005: my aforementioned scenario; taking May over Granger
2006: Roy or Gay instead of Morrison
2007: Can't really complain, Brandan Wright isn't doing anything
2008: Taking Augustin over Lopez 3/4/2010 5:33:33 PM |
Maverick1024 All American 4866 Posts user info edit post |
^Probably would have taken Bosh ... could have taken Wade. Then there's David West, Josh Howard, Kendrick Perkins, Barbosa, and Diaw in the last half of the first round, and Mo Williams in the 2nd round.
What a draft. 3/4/2010 9:03:59 PM |

Thats hindsight...no one was clamoring for us to take either one during the draft

I'd be disappointed if they couldn't lock down at least the 8th seed after the way they've played since the Jackson trade though. 3/9/2010 9:43:02 PM |

i'll be disappointed as well. looking at the remaining games, they really aren't THAT bad. if we can go at least 10-10 the rest of the way, there's no way we miss out 3/9/2010 9:50:32 PM |

We had a 6 game win streak already THIS YEAR anyone who didnt realize that is a miserable cocksukcer fucking asshole who lets Desagnana Diop rape them with no lube and no condum and then squats over a plate and lets the nut drip out on to it and then slurps it up with a straw, and they do all of this willingly with no coercion needed on Diop's part, so I guess tehcnically its not rape but consensual sex, which makes it even worse. 3/13/2010 4:02:24 AM |
