Yeah I saw it in the other threads now. What we should do is try to trade the #5 for #1 and Grant Hill. Then cut Hill and draft Okafor. Then draft Shaun at 4. Expansion:
Jerry Stackhouse (SG/SF)-Main scorer along with Walker. Hopefully will bring veteran leadership.
Antoine Walker (SF/PF)-Main scorer along with Stackhouse. Hopefully will bring the leadership also. Help bring up the ball.
Lorenzen Wright (PF/C)-Bring the toughness and defense this brand new team will need.
Gerald Wallace (SG/SF)-Can bring the excitement of his play off the bench. Highflyer.
Alexander Pavolovic (SG/SF)-Good young European talent.
Zaur Pachulia (PF/C)-Young talented big man.
Omar Cook (PG)-Good young PG. Has a lot of potential.
Vladimir Stepania (PF/C)-Big body for down low.
Erick Strickland (PG/SG)-Veteran to help out with the very young PGs.
Wright/Stepania
Okafor/Pachulia
Walker/Wallace
Stackhouse/Pavolovic
Livingston/Cook/Strickland
This can be a playoff team in the East. Is this under the cap or close?

I believe that is over the cap. Wright is $7 mil, as is Stack. Walker is $14 million and that puts you at $28 million. The cap is $29 million I believe, add in the draftees and the other players and you're over. Take out Wright and pick up someone like Skinner (who IMO played better last year anyways) and you're better off. Personally, I don't like the Stackhouse pick very much.

The Bobcats aren't bound by the salary cap. They can draft 100 million in salaries if they want too.
The team has a 29 million dollar cap but, they can exceed it in the expansion draft, they also can exceed it to sign there rookies and they have the MLE just like every other team so if they wanted to they could take Antoine Walker, Jerry Stackhouse, Penny Hardaway and every other expensive vet.
However they have said they are looking to stay way under the cap and have some flexability to sign free agents.
I'm just pointing out that fact because I keep reading people saying they will be over the cap when in fact they don't have a cap for th expansion draft.

I thought someone said it was around 35. Skinner is going to opt out that is the only reason he was left open.

A rough estimate is 30.2 million dollars. It is 2/3 the Salary cap, which looks like 45.3 million next year. The official salary cap will be announced in July.

thats who i think they should take. w/ #4, i'd draft ben gordon. he's a PG w/ 3 years of college experience, won the title, and is a good scorer. then in the 2nd round, draft PF Arthur Johnson.
PG- Gordon, Dixon, Bell
SG- Alexander, Woods, Pavolovic
SF- Walker, Wallace, Kopono
PF- Skinner, Johnson, Fizer
C- Wright, Cook, Stepania, Zaza
thats not bad for an expansion team. i think gordon is the best PG in the draft. dixon and bell are young, quick, and would be good backups. alexander is pretty good. i've never heard of pavolovic, and i like woods. toine would be their main scorer, and would give them a big name and a guy they can go to towards the end of the game. wallace and kapono are solid backups. skinner's pretty good, fizer's young and decent, and i think johnson will be a good player in the NBA. wright, stepania, and zaza are pretty good. i think cook has potential. he'll be good in a few years.

I like this team, lots of potential with guys like Wallace, Woods, and Pavolovic. Its a better team than the current Hawks or Magic.
