I mean damn, can we at least pretend like we wanna win some games. We haven't even made it to summer league
Very true. I will screen cap the current 2013 mock, and save it. If I remember, I'll post it before the draft next year.
In Cho I Trust
I was thinking of doing the same thing, perhaps we can put the various ones in a thread and keep it stickied throughout the year. I was going to wait until closer to the season starting though so they have more time to do a "preliminary mock"
I think Cho will be sure that this team doesn't win more games than it should. That's what OKC did - they didn't pick up any cheap free agents to help them win 5 more games over the course of the season. It doesn't help. The whole reason to watch this team at this point is to see the young guys that might be part of the future play (MKG, Bizmack, Walker). I would like to see them pick up a young point guard, maybe an undrafted free agent or DLeague guy so that they can move Augustin at the deadline if a good deal is out there.
I would rather have Cody Zeller than Nerlens Noel. Zeller is a much better offensive player than Noel. The 2013 draft class could have a lot of good bigs, I know its early but 4 players bigs are projected to go in top 10. If the Bobcats can get either Shabazz Muhammad, Cody Zeller, or Nerlens Noel the future will be very bright.
I dont think we tanked this past season. We were simply the worst team in the NBA. I'd prefer the team grow together, and win as many games as possible. Then leave it to the Ping Pong balls. Heck, we lost far more than New Orleans, and they jumped us. I'd like to see us show improvement and be in line for somewhere around the 5th-7th pick, and then have the Ping Pong balls fall for us and give us a Top 3 pick. The team with the worst record just never wins the Lottery, so I dont want that distinction again.
I think you're right, but it would be good to have a few things in place-- like another rugged big and a good passing pg-- just to help the guys stay healthy and learn to be productive. I'm hoping we get cheap, serviceable veterans that will help stabilize us while allowing us to play our young guys a lot and let them develop. That's a recipe less about losing on purpose and more about focusing on development than winning. In my mind, there is a difference.
SOMEONE will pay for THIS!

I rather have either Noel Or zeller, because with shabazz we still dont have any big men going forward. Were probably going to be the worst team again but with more wins, for some reason i dont see stern letting us get the #1 pick next year since its gonna look like he owes us one which he does, i think were going to get top 3 though
Its stupid logic.. besides, how many teams with the worst NBA record actually get the #1 selection? Next years draft will be weak outside of the top 3. Its possible that we can miss all 3. Crazy..
" It's rare i listen to people who never been in my position, a caterpillar can't relate to what an eagle envisions"
Not excited at all about Noel, he looks kind of clumsy on the court to me and his offense is no where near Davis (who is not exactly an offensive machine). It is Shabazz, Cody Zeller or bust!
