That makes perfect sense, and if NBA players had the brains God gave eggplants they'd look at it that way. Unfortunately, most will only look at Charlotte's record this year, decide they're only interested in signing with a contender, and go elsewhere--where they'll still not get the chance to prove themselves. With any luck, though, one or two of the guys you describe will want to make a serious impact with good minutes and the chance to get noticed and come to the Bobcats.
