im a huge nba fan and ive been looking at all of the nba team pages and nobody is even close to as good as this site with all the mock drafts and workout videos, great job guys keep up the good work

Aaron Green: I'm from the great state of WV, but I'm not East Coast Biased. But, I will say this if your looking for a long term guy who is a little bigger with some range, Go with Joe Alexander from WVU or Kevin Love from UCLA. Both can play from Inside down on the block or shoot the outside jumper. Alexander is more of A Dunker but is a good Small Forward. Love is more Inside and is very strong. Both will be solid players in the NBA. They'll need to be developed but LB and MJ can do the job. GO CATS.

keith shpakoff: no doubt kevin love

gocats: Trade down and take Westbrook or take Love at 9

Zach Levesque: This site is awsome, just keep us up to date and let us know who the bobcats have their eye's on.

T-Mart: DeAndre Jordan best option to help Okafor because he's tall, athletic and a"Lefty". If he's not available draft Brook Lopez, but if Roy Hibbert declares draft him.

Bobcat:I tried to contact somebody here about moving up in the draft 2 years ago for chris paul, now im back to give you another name of somebody greater than even paul, his name is augustin! GET HIM!!!!! I cant stress it enuff. Hello is anybody home? oops we let him get by, ok then well get mayo!!!!!.....Is anybody listening to me? If not save this email for next season then give me a call. BOBCATS #1.....PS We have the best linup in the league, larry brown will bring it all together, and J rich and Wallace remind me of a mike jordan and scottie pippen and morrison is like a young larry bird, i cant wait ahhhh bobcats 2011 NBA Championship thats if, we can get the one of them three pics in this draft... love, The Bobcat prophet
