Givony on if we drop out of the top 3

[Plowright]

A new owner? And a shrink for their fans. Yikes. RT @Sim_Diesel: If bobcats drop out of top 3 who do they go after? #dxchat

I feel exactly how he suggests...

[Mustachio]

I agree we would all need some therapy if that happens but what would a new owner have to do with it?

[Plowright]

I guess he is saying that MJ's gamble on tanking didnt pay off. But I also agree that a new owner wouldn't do much. I dont know, all this time I thought MJ was good for us. But I almost feel its the CNN effect. Everyone around the league is convinced that MJ is a joke and a terrible owner. I just think it is going to be very ahrd for him to ever succeed. There will always be that echo saying, your a player not a gm or woner

I see that but I guess thanks to years of marketing campaigns by nike and gatorade I will never count mj out haha. heres hoping all the doubts are fueling him . but again getting the 4th pick doesnt make the gamble of tanking not worth it id rather have a shot at number 1 than continue in the mire of mediocrity we were destined for

[Plowright]

Again I agree that tanking is the right thin to do if we have the 4th or 1st pick, I just feel that so many people want and expected MJ to fail...

[Veteran_Picksetter]

Am I missing something? (besides a few brain cells) Where is the link?

Also, Jordan recently said he was not planning to chase ping pong balls this past season. We kind of (bad) "lucked" into it.....

[Veteran_Picksetter]

I'm just not hip to this twitter stuff. Trying to figure out how to read the comment by Givony. (Warning: Old Man on Computer)

[Veteran_Picksetter]

Okay, I found it on dx chat. So Plowman posted the entire comment. I get it now.

I like to think he was just joking around. Michael Jordan is a competitor and he's not going to give up that easily.

It can only get better!!

Michael Jordan is a competitor and he's not going to give up that easily.

This is my thinking as well. I know a lot of folks are down on MJ but I am 100% behind him. He is not someone to be labeled "bad" at something without doing everything he can to prove them wrong. The past 12 months haven't been filled with a lot of wins but they have been filled with a lot of good choices.

Cho, Mullens for a future 2nd, Bismack and Kemba, most ping pong balls, etc.

I know I am a cup half full type of guy in general but I truly feel like we are finally going in the right direction.

If the ping pong ball gods smile on us tomorrow, then MJ will instantly look a whole lot better in the eyes of the general public.

[Plowright]

lets see you be a glass half full guy tomorrow if we get the 4th pick :p

[WAM9]

It will certainly be harder:)

he will be a glass all empty, a bottle all empty and the local liquor store all empty kind of guy

[Pepperz]

Give it time. We are a bad team so if we land 4th, we get the BPA and move on. Cho knows what he is doing. In a year or 2, you guys are going to change your perspective on this team and so will the league. Its just right now, its easy to make fun of us.

[anton273]

Even us are making fun of this team!

No matter who we draft if we get more than 7 wins we have progressed :) every win will feel sooooo good next year

great attitude to have. And after my initial irrational response and subsequent twitter/facebook/bcp.com freak out... this will be how I feel. I'm just allowing myself about 12 hours of total outrage and conspiracy theorizing before I come down and get right.

[SWedd523]

Agree with Pepperz. We put ourselves in the best position to get the best player. If we don't then oh well, take who we can get and move on/try again next year. It'll just be a slower process. Can't control what happens tonight.
