    Default With the tenth pick in the 2011 NBA Draft the Bobcats select.....Gerald Wallace?

    NBADraft.net updated their mock and it has us taking this guy-
    http://www.nbadraft.net/players/kawhi-leonard

    Who do they compare him to? That's right Gerald Wallace. Anyone ever see him play? He goes to San Diego St.

    I'd much rather have Kemba Walker who they have going #12. But Leonard is a Top 15 talent so not a bad thing if he ends up in Charlotte.

    take kemba if it is between those two. at worst kemba has a bigger name and better trade value. go with best player available and kemba is better. for what it is worth, chad ford has kemba top 8.

    Kawhi Leonard plays exactly like Crash, with better ball handling and a jumper. He's going to be a great ball player one day.

    as i have already said, i have only watched the tourney but from what i saw of leonard i liked. but, there is a big difference between playing like crash and having the athleticism of crash. leonard isn't half the athlete of crash. but he does have a better shot.

    Which Crash are we talking about, though? The Crash of 05-06/06-07 that was an athletic freak, the Crash of 09-10 that was an All-Star or the current Crash, who is a dwindling athlete who's getting to learn how to play as a winner?

    i don't know what it is about kemba that i don't like as an nba player. i think he's been a great collegiate player, but i just don't think he's going to be anything more than a ben gordon/6th man score-first pg. give me terrence jones or leonard at 10.

    I love Kemba's game. He takes it to the rim, he is explosive, he can drain the 3, and he looks to dish the ball. I think he's the complete package. But I thnk he has now moved up out of our range. I think Knight will be available, which is also fine by me. Knight is the better defender, and is also only a Rookie. Lots of room to grow his game.

    what about the lithuanian centre? He is dropping to late lottery in alot of mocks http://www.nbadraft.net/players/jonas-valanciunas

    im not going to pretend i know a thing about him but we need a centre adn the only decent one who was going to be on the market this summer was Perk who has signed an extension. I know its a risk but... Also do you not think that we will get a similarly talented player with the NO pick as we do with our own? If thats the case it would be less risky...

    Kanter is projected as a Center. Valanciunas and Vessely are both projected as PF, even tho they are 6'10 and 6'11. Dont have the girth of Kanter to expect to play at the Center spot. With Diaw and TT, dont want to waste a Lottery pick on a PF
