Would you be willing to tank 2006-2007?

[ziggy]

Would you be willing to tank the entire season... Go 18-54, Have no national games, suffer through empty seats at Bobcats Arena and endure the ridicule of having to look up to the Knicks next season if it guaranteed you GREG ODEN in the 2007 draft?

Even though hes supposed to be the greatest center prospec to enter the draft since Shaq.... I couldn\'t do it. I\'m ready to see the Bobcats get some wins, I\'m tired of talking about planning for the future.

Thoughts?

[tamburello]

Absolutely I wouldn\'t. I never believe that Jordan will let the entire season slip away to land a hot future prospect. He needs to do it all, and all in this season. He wants to delete the memories of Wizards and Kwame Brown as soon as possible.

We will no way be under 30 wins next season(I strongly hope). So we won\'t have the chance to take Oden.

We have to be playoff contenders in a year or two, or the campaigns like \"199$ flight plan\" won\'t work.

[Wallace15]

Hell no, we actually have a chance to make the playoffs. Why throw away a playoff season?

[heelfan]

Yep, I\'d do it. It would be painful to watch next season, but once Oden was added to a lineup of Okafor/Wallace/Morrison/Felton, then we\'d be contenders for the next 10 years.

As much as I\'d like to have that line up, we couldn\'t really afford it could we? I really want to see some wins! I want to see Sean May win MIP next year, Mek to come back stronger than ever, etc. Besides we could end up with another good pick next year and package it with somebody else to get him. I mean the Lakers ended up with Kobe, and only gave up Divac? and their draft pick that year. Could always be good and work out a trade with an idiot like Isaiha(sp)?

[heelfan]

Its not the most honerable thing to do, but it worked out with the Spurs when they drafted Tim Duncan and for the Houston Rockets when they drafted Hakeem Olajuwon.

NO..............
How many season ticket holders do we have on this site besides me. How many times did u see the games last year tanked by Bernie. Doing things like taking Felton out of the game on the verge of a come back and how many times did u see Felton slip back in the game behind Bernie\'s back, only to be took out again. How many of you seen Shawn May jump up and down laughing and carrying on the last 20 games of the season? How many of you did you see BK or Wallace get set out for 2 or 3 games at the end of the season and they would come out like nothing was wrong. No I will not go through that again, I will give up my season tickets.

[heelfan]

If the offseason continues with no more free agent pickups and then you see Bernie trot out Brevin as the starting SHOOTING GUARD, then you might be on your way to a tanked season.

We dont have to tank the season .Belive me if a season has ever been tanked it was last season.
Bernie did a great job . He did ever thing he could do to lose a game. He even had B Rob playing the FIVE along with Jones , Carol. on the frunt line . It was tanked. We have a solid five .Its OK50 right now he could be better than over half the centers in the league. Do you guys not think hes a big upgrade over Premo and Ely . Hes quick strong and can block shots. Hes can also pull down the boards. Him along with Felton, May, Morrison,Wallace Can and will take us to the playoffs this year. You have to rem none of those five players are over 25 years old . The only thing they can do is get better. Its time NOW for Charlotte to makes its move. We all talk about players thet we need to be added, but the thing we need the most is a COACH .Have your son as a ass and your sons best frind on the team.ANY WAY THIS IS A PLAYOFF TEAM and a solid team for years to come...........
