If I were the Bobcats, I'd be looking at the following...

PG: Tony Delk, Howard Eisley
SG: Eddie Jones, Courtney Alexander
SF: Luol Deng (with the pick), Qyntel Woods
PF: Maurice Taylor, Allan Henderson
C: Lorenzen Wright, Jahidi White

I'm not sure on the backup power forward - you could grab Antoine Walker from the Mavericks rather than Hendu, but there are probably better ways to spend your money. I think the team above, especially if Deng turns out to be as good as advertized, could compete for one of the lower-end playoff spots.

Mo Taylor is a reliable low-post scorer, assuming he can stay healthy. Jahidi and Lorenzen (White & Wright) can play good defense and get rebounds. And while the backcourt is getting kinda old, those guys can still play - Eddie Jones needs an inside scorer to play with (Taylor could suffice), and Delk just needs someone who can take enough of his minutes (Eisley's decent, though not spectacular). This team, on paper, looks better than the current Knicks and Celtics to me.
