    Default Who should we be rooting for in Tuesday's draft lottery?

    In other words, which team winning the lottery would benefit us the most?

    For example if New Jersey wins it, They would likely draft John Wall which could possibly free up Devin Harris to find his way into a bobcats uniform.

    If the Hornets were to win it, they would have the rights to Wall, while already being overloaded at the PG spot with CP3 and Darren Collison. If we could weasel CP3 away from the Hornets, my life would be complete.

    What scenario on Tuesday night potentially helps us out the most.

    I'd say the Clippers winning. Because then, John Wall will never make an All-Star Game and we didn't miss out on anything.

    But all hyperbole *cough*swedd*cough* aside, I'd go with either NJ or a western conference team. I'd like Minny to get a scoring bigman so either Love or Al are available.

    If they get Wall, omg. That'd be what, 4 drafted PG's in 2 years? Plus Sessions as a free agent?

    what could or should we trade for cp3. it would take crash for sure, plus us taking back a terrible contract. maybe taking mek back.

    my point is, if NO gets wall and feels they can take offers on cp3, we can't offer enough. even if he wanted to come here. i think our best bet for cp3 is outright free agency or a sign and trade in 2011 when he controls all the chips and force NO to make a trade or take nothing. i think our best strategy for getting cp3 is to get our cap right for 2012 AND have a desirable team for him to come to.

    as for our draft/lottery aspirations, i don't care much about the lottery (concerning us). i think we should be targeting lower tier free agents and/or buying late first round/early 2nd round picks from teams looking to sell.

    I'm pulling for Utah because, #1, NY fans will slap their heads and say crap! that should have been us. and #2, with the best PG already on their roster, it will put a fun little bidding war for other teams to try and get the pick.

    Yeah, they could just keep the spot and take Turner at #1 but why lose out on some possible incredible compensation from other teams? Could be a very entertaining poker match to get the #1 pick out of their hands.

    Actually I take it back, I'm rooting for the .000000000000000000000001% chance that the lottery fucks up and we somehow emerge with the #1 pick.

    We're not in the lottery. Nor is the pick we gave to Minnesota...

    i think the bobcats will be adding cp3 to their roster within the next two years. im guessing FA, but we do have naz and tyson comin off the books and are valuable for teams trying to get cap space. idk we need him or someone of his caliber to beat the beasts.
