One heck of a draft by the Bobcats tonight. I thought Felton going at 5 was a little high for my liking but following it up with May was a great 1 2 combo. Not only will that help the fans but the team is greatly improved. Chris Paul would have been the perfect PG for the team but I won't go against the GM on this one Let's see what they can do with 25 million in cap room now, someone call JJ from the Suns

Felton
JJ
Wallace
May
Oakafor

Wouldn't be to bad of starting 5 considering a good amount of cap room would still be left.

I give it a B-

a very bittersweet draft to be honest. I'm not one to complain about Felton and May... but I really would have prefered we draft Danny Granger or even Gerald Green at 13. When we first took Felton, I was frustrated, bc I felt it was too high for him, but I was just ecstatic when Green and Granger fell.

Now, heres what I hope.

We have a lot of capspace. We need a consistent first scoring threat. JJ is available. If we were to sign him, this would be a terrific offseason.

Felton is all the good, if not better than Paul and Deron. Get the Dookie bias out of you. Plus, along with being as good, he'll sell alot more tickets than Paul. Come on, how many people are really Wake fans?

Diable

Taking May when Granger and Graham were available was just absolutely stupid

Once the players declare, I don't think of them as Carolina players. Normally, I wouldn't really care if we picked May... but when Granger and Green still available... I don't know. May is a great utilities guy that a lot of teams would love to have, but we actually need a scorer, especially one at the wing. And thats not May, thats someone like Gerald Green, Danny Granger or Antoine Wright.

Carbo04

Yea, I thought Green would be the choice. But give May a chance. He's an insane rebounder, and you know Felton brings out the best in him. Plus he probably has the highest BB IQ in the draft.

Drewbs

On teh bright side, we have a very solid frontcourt. Which is not something most eastern conference teams can say. I really do hope May does well, nothing is better than shutting up the people calling you a bust.

Pacers Fan

I'll give it a C+. Both players were good, but they both should've gone lower. This will certainly help ticket sales, but why take Sean May when you have Okafor?

Well they do have a nice 4 man rotation in PF and C spots with May and Ely coming off the Bench. Plenty of minutes to spread around. I guess they're pretty confident that they'll get their swingman vai free agency.

Pistolballer

thats what I was thinking when they chose him, but the more I think about it, the more I think May is a lot like Boozer...

I was personally hoping they would draft Rashad McCants

PF - Okafor
SF - Gerald Wallace
C - Primoz Brezec
SG - Rashad McCants
PG - Raymond Felton

then we could pick up something nice on the free agency market...

Im The One

Trust me im a big UNC fan and I have no problem with May but i still dont understand why we drafted him. He have Okafor and he'll likely just be a backup. We could of used another swing man

Any We've already had two solid drafts. If we can make a splash in free agency like picking up JJ somehow, some way it will of been a tereffic offseason.

Felton
JJ
Wallace
Okafor
Primo

Subs
May
Bogans
Kapono
Ely
We could make the playoffs a yr or 2 from now

You draft May because if he is the next Boozer, you want him on your side. With Oak around, you can risk having May play a small man's 5. He fits this team, I don't know if Bernie wanted to wait on a high schooler, as the college route has seemed to go well so far. I believe it's always better to go for the big guy you like because 2 and 3s are easier to get.

May is solid. Unless we drafted Martell Webster, we would have to wait on Gerald Green. Granger would have been a solid pick too.
