#SLOE: People's Basketball Sim League

Welcome to another season of Bobcats basketball. We've got an interesting line up this season led by the Throckmorton Brothers, Krebs, Shaw, Brown, and Kapp. We added some new players this season and hopefully none of them get injured which is what we dealt with last season. This season were going in with tempered expectations. If we win 20 games I'll be ecstatic. That said knowing how my seasons usually go we'll be a playoff team with 40 wins instead of a 15-20 win team which is what's expected. Hopefully we get some luck and can rebuild over the next few seasons which is the goal.

Sham Smith, Bulls.com: Who would you say, thus far, has been the face of the Charlotte Bobcats? And since there's no answer to that apparent to me, how important is it for you to find a bonafide superstar and how do you plan on doing that?

Will the bobcats be riding the tank this season or will you make moves to make a potential playoff run?

Draft and free agency are the answers to that. As far as stars go Brown, Davenport, Shaw, and Kapp have been our four most consistent players but they're getting older so bringing in new stars is the ultimate goal.

Not so much riding the tank just in transition. I'm not expecting much this season but the last time I did that my one blue player and bums got 31 wins so anything is possible.

Fans have been calling for a bobcats tankjob for years. You finally did it last year, when you didn't have your own pick. Do you think fan support will be higher now that your team is trash AND you have your own pick?

First of all that wasn't a tankjob last season, get it right. Injuries at Center killed any hope we had last season. Also the other team got lucky the pick went up five spots in the lottery which should be abolished by the way. I think the fan support will be the same.

Was the reuniting of the Throckmorton brothers a publicity stunt to bring more families in the arena or do they have a long term future in Charlotte?

Just a coincidence, that's all.
