Offseason Wish List

[krazyrumpshaker]

Regardless of if the Bobcats make the playoffs this season or not, what do you hope happens this offseason?

Sign Iverson?
Resign Felton?
Acquire extra picks in the draft?
Trades?

I for one am on the Iverson bandwagon. I think it would be amazing if we could get him, trade Felton to a team looking to dump a role player and a draft pick (if that is possible given that we have to resign him first, im not very good at all those rules) and then just continue to develop Ajinca and the rest of the bench. I think if its possible to get another draft pick without having to give another future pick away, that would be great, even in a supposedly weak draft (which i dont think it is. Weak in terms of superstars but i see a large amount of good role players in this draft). Even if we dont do much this offseason, i think a training camp and offseason workouts will help us become at least a 6 seed next season.

For EO50 to become a radically better FT shooter like Crash has become this season.

^ avoid if possible.

Now, seriously...

- Alexis developing his upper body and gaining some weight
- Sean finally getting into shape
- Someone running Richard Jefferson over with a car (this one's for those who hate his guts)

Resign Felton to a reasonable contract
A backup blue collar PF who can rebound, preferably a veteran
Draft pick: a very athletic 2 or swingman who can hit from midrange or outside.

If we do that, I think we'll be in pretty good shape. I don't even mind if Ajinca takes another year to develop.

As much fun as this year has been with all the trading I think we're ALMOST done... that said this summer we should:

0. (Comes before 1) RESIGN JUWAN!!!
1. Resign Ray to a movable contract (ie not 5/6 years, not 10 mil) I say movable in case something happens where he is disposable, I like flexibility.
2. See how cheap we can get AI.
3. Make decisions on our 3 disposable rookies best to worse (Dontell, Cartier, Singletary).
4. Make Sean May a low end short term contract offer instead of QO.
5. See if we cant sell Nazr for a late 1st round pick or early 2nd rounder.
6. Try at least once a line like this in Training camp -> DJ, Bell, Ajinca, May, <your choice of 5>

There are more, but I dunno, this would be great (even if it were 3/6).

Not sure what will happen this offseason but i think it will be exciting.

I m sure like this past and previous offseasons we will find good and bad but some of the things I would like to see OR think we will see.

1) They will sign May to a minimum or QO
2) We will go for an all-star caliber player Possibly AI
3) We will not bring back Cartier or Johnson
4) Ajinca will stay in the D-league
5) we will bring Singletary back
6) We will try and offload Nazr
7) I think we will try and offload Diop ( if May stays)
8 ) A possible Felts or Okafor Shop
9) If we miss the playoffs we will have 2 2nd rounds and a 1st so this will come into the mix if we do try and trade up allowing others to free capspace which i think is going to be huge this offseason as the Cap is going to be huge. A lot of teams are going to be way over Cap with the economy tanking the way it did.

All in All we will only get better

WHAT!?

THE NBA. IT'S FANBLASTIC!

1. Resign Felton (who is better than dj and way better than ai)

2. Make Diop shoot 1000 shots every day during the offseason (if he can get a touch he will make his free throws and he always plays better if he scores a few baskets.

3. Teach Oak to play the power forward spot so we can go with a starting front line of Diop and Mek to bruise our way to the league lead in rebounds next year.

4. Trade Vlad to any team willing to take his contract, we don't really need anything back just get it off the books.

5. Cut Martin and Jefferson unless they really show somthing.

6. Bring back Sean May unless it is obvious his knee is totally shot....we should know by now one way or the other

7. Find a backup PG and a backup SG who can defend if Jefferson and Martin cannot be that guy.

8. Bring Back lil Sean
