And how exactly is that going to happen? No superstars are coming to Charlotte in free agency, and you won't get any superstars by making the 7 seed and picking in the low 20's. Trust me, I know.

Well, right now we're betting on the guy we get with the Pistons pick turning into that guy. Its top 8 protected this year; which means its a 50/50 chance we'll get it this year given how poorly the Pistons are playing. However that could actually be a good thing for us; as next year the pick is only protected for the top pick, and finally its unprotected in '16.

That was a smart move on Cho's part. I just wish we'd have gotten something out of Ben Gordon's expiring contract but no one was biting.
