I'd like to see it.  I'd love to trade for an established player, potentially an up and coming guy on the wrong team. 

But also wouldn't mind either trading up in the draft, or even down a few spots. Picks 8-15 or so are all on the same level to me. 

 

I'd just like to see something done.  The roster is meh at best right now, with no real improvement in the near future unless they find an absolute gem.  Kemba is who he is, great at times but just decent to good most of the time, SG hole is obvious, MKG is good but will never be an all-around threat IMO, who knows with the kids at PF if they'll reach anything, and Al is Al but potentially on the decline.

"Al potentially on the decline" is the understatement of the century, but I'm with you. I'm not sure if there is a "one move fixes all" solution available, but I just want to see them do something. Going into next season just relying on health and individual improvement alone is not solving any of the real issues holding the team back.

Unfortunately, Cho will probably continue to be way too conservative and trade the pick for Arron Afflalo or something.

I'd like to see them move up.  The Knicks pick is very available.  Cho talks about wanting to "accelerate" this rebuild yet has made no signs of making any bold moves.  I'd trade a future first and one of our young guys (Lance, Kemba, PJ, Cody, Vonleh in order of the ones I'd most prefer we give up) that's not MKG for the pick.

If we could somehow land D'angelo Russell.... Mannnnn 

I wish Kemba and 9 would be enough to get to 4, but even then, one of the Lakers or Sixers has to fall in love with Winslow or Mudiay and take either instead.

How brilliant does Hinkie look? Got the Lakers pick from Phoenix for sending MCW to Milwaukee, and now he can get a huge upgrade in Russell. I wish we thought two steps ahead like that...

      Yeah I think he's just talking continuity it's not really an endorsement. Also I would think CarolinaHuddle of all places would understand using "we" for the team you follow. I can't STAND when dorks do the "Oh so you play for them then? Hurr hurr"

      Kon is a damn stud but it’s not any individual player’s team. All of the “big 3” are incredibly and equally important IMO. And LaMelo makes Kon way better (look at his shooting splits with LaMelo on the floor vs without. Also Moose and even Miles are important cogs. Honestly think we’re 1 piece away from being legit top contenders if the young guys continue to develop the next year or two. I trust this FO to be patient to find that piece within the next 2-3 years and not force anything. Plenty of time and even without adding anyone we have the pieces in place overall already to compete with any team.

      We lost 2 very close and winnable games against top teams in the league while missing 3 critical players despite 2 of our top 3 players shooting unusually terribly. Still split the 4 games that Moose and Miles were suspended, winning the most important one vs the Hawks. This ain’t yo mama’s Hornets man. Hopefully Coby can go soon but even if not Moose and Miles are huge additions for our starting lineup and bench rotations. Schedule is pretty tough after these next 4 but I think we’ll take care of business the next 4 to get to .500 then finish slightly above .500 after that to get a 7 or 8 seed. Keep it rolling boys. Also Kon is having an insanely historic rookie season as a shooter. Like truly can’t believe my eyes watching this kid level of historic. Man what a fuging home run of a draft pick and exactly what this team needed to take that next step forward. He’s gonna shatter the rookie 3 point and franchise 3 point records. Has a real chance to be the 2nd best 3 point shooter ever or dare I say even get to Curry’s level (as a pure shooter, Curry obviously has way more to his game that has made him a GOAT).
