Welcome To The Bobcats Gerald Henderson & Derrick Brown

Postby zoned unc on Thu Jun 25, 2009 7:48 pm

wish we could have nabbed Williams. I have to admit i'm extremely biased against Gerald, ever since that blatent cheapshot to Hans.



Hope you don't mind, I changed the title?

There are 3 1/2 Duke fans at my house. None of them can sell EACH OTHER on the Hendo pick.

yeah, I hope it works out. I think that it's good that we got a Duke player to give some love to the other NC teams, but to be quite honest, i just dont know if Henderson is as good as we could have got.

Deym the Nets! I already felt that they are going to pick T-Will when they traded VC.

T-Will also hoped he'd be a Bobcat. *sigh* Oh well... I just hope Henderson can be the impact player that the Bobcats need.

My gosh folks, why throw crap on Henderson? Are you so stuck on college that you can't separate the player and look at what you got? Based on the way the draft went, Henderson was the best choice available. He was considered as high as 8th. Hansborough will be a decent reserve player, but Henderson has a good chance to be a starter. I'm pleased. :thumbsup:

You guys have a great pick in Henderson, you'll find out when the season starts. Don't be surprised if he finishes in the top 5 for ROY.

I don't mind the Henderson pick at all but how exactly is a graduate of the University of New Jersey Durham a member of a North Carolina team?

Charlotte is 80% UNC fans, 10% Wake fans, 5% Davidson fans, 4% other and 1% Duke fans. They just alienated their entire fanbase.

for those of you ripping the Hendo pick, who would you have rather selected? I don't see anyone picked after Hendo that would have been a better pick on paper. I think you guys are just Carolina fans and you wanted Hansbrough.

The only alternative players I could see fans bitching about would be Earl Clark, James Johnson, or Austin Daye. There's no way you can justify bringing in another PG after offering Felton the qualifying offer and having Augustin on the roster.

Are Clark, Johnson, and Daye better than Hendo? Obviously better? I don't think so. I'm fine with the pick considering Williams went off the board at 11.
