    Maybe Payton, maybe anyone. MAYBE EVEN LEBRON JAMES! Charlotte will get the first pick since it's the new franchise but i dunno if they draft this year. It's a good question as to who there key player will be. Maybe Shaq's old teammate, I forget his last name

    There's no was that they start next year. We would have heard about the possibility of them getting LBJ already. I bet they start the year after next.

    i would laugh if they start this year. That would make all these teams tanking for the rest of the season look stupid.


    Are you talking about Stanley Roberts?

    I heard that they wouldnt get the first pick but a high pick instead. We will ahve to see who is protected by teams and who isnt. I doubt Gary Payton would go there. He wants a ring and going to Charlotte isnt the way he wants to go to get a ring

    There are two foreign players who are thought to be in the lottery for the 2004 draft (possibly the year Charlotte comes in). They are Tiago Splitter a 6-11 220 pound PF from Brazil, and Maciej Lampe a 6-10 233 pound PF from Poland.

    I heard his Airness might be back for more and play 1 year with Charlotte to get the franchise off to a good start. Afte that he'll take part ownership of the team and have a similar role like he had with the Wizards.

    Who ever it is, I hope Charlotte sports some Carolina Blue Jerseys.

    I heard on Sportcenter that LA was interested in Stanley Roberts. But no matter what team he signs with he should be in uniform by the end of the Weekend.

    I dont think he will be any teams franchise player any time soon.
