    Default Our Options For a Starting PF

    On realgm some people think that Walter Hermann would be a nice fit to fill our void at PF. i like that idea but i cant remember if he was good at pf or not when he played for us. i thought he primarily played the SF or when Vincent was coach the bench. I would love to have him if he can hold his own down low as he would give us that shooting PF to pair with Mek. Other ideas are trading for Sean Williams or Channing Frye. i dont mind either of those as they upgrade the PF spot, but if we sign Hermann to the MLE we wouldnt have to trade anyone. Thoughts? Post any other options you guys have.

    Fabio was REALLY good at denying the entry pass and playing really disciplined D. Problem was that if his man got the ball, they could burn past him because he has little lateral movement and isn't very athletic so he isn't a on ball or weak side shot blocker.

    On offense he was great at shooting from the corners, making weak side cuts (I think he has a high BBIQ) and man, who could forget "the claw"!!!

    All in all I would be ok with him - but Frye would be at the top of my list with Charlie V 2nd, Fabio 3rd and Sean Williams at the bottom.

    Charlie V is the man for the job. He has the height at 6'11" and athleticism to be a good pf. His skills are good enough where he could open up the middle for GW and Okafor to rome. Has a descent outside shot even out to 3 land. His weight at 240 means he can't be pushed around once he is coached up alittle on d. The only thing is what will we have to give up to get him. His salary is only 3 mill and if he works out we could sign him to maybe a 6 to 8 mill deal next offseason hopefullly.

    I have noticed alot of people on this site are fans of Herrmann. I have to say I think it's a bad idea to bring him back. If i'm correct he was traded to the Pistions. He didn't get much playing time and it's not like the Pistions bench get's an A. I honestly don't remember him ever doing anything productive other then hitting three's every now and then with that ugly jumper. I would throw popcorn at the TV if i ever saw him in a Bobcats jersey again.
    As long as NC has a team, I'm going to cheer for it

    I like Channing Frye alot too and i found a trade that works in the checker.

    Morrison and May for Frye and Webster

    I dont know if they would accept that but Webster is a decent shooter and he has to be a better defender than Morrison. We might have to throw in a 2nd to get them to agree.
