Hornets pick 3rd!!!

I really want for this team to be good. I like basketball but just haven’t been able to get into the Hornets to watch them regularly (wonder why...?). Seems like we could be trending in the right direction. This pick needs to be a stud.

Feel like it's going to be impossible to predict, could see any team (including the Hornets) trade down.  Just don't think there's any clear cut must have guys at the top this year, of course the year the Hornets get lucky. 

Edwards is the dream scenario, but any guy who's motor is a red flag is scary.  Wiseman is a freak, but same thing as Edwards with a questionable motor and his basketball IQ is reportedly low and he's going to take time to adjust.  Ball....eh. The passing is great, but do we want that circus popping up even for a little bit?  Poor shot selection, bad defense, but a great passer...at 3?  Going to play Graham as a tiny SG with LaMelo running the show? 

Trade it

    • I originally hated the Miller deal but with the cap projected to rise nearly $10M next season the Canes struck some pretty good deals between Miller and Ehlers. Most of the team is locked in for the next few years. Nikishin will need an extension probably in the $6M AAV range. And Blake will need one if we don’t move him. Personally I’d move Blake, picks, and any prospect not named Nikishin/Nadeau/Artamonov for McTavish as I don’t see any any of the big time players moving teams next year. Realistically the Hurricanes should just target Gustavsson next year to fix the goal tending issue. But I’m all for moving Blake, picks, and prospects for McTavish this year. Ehlers - Aho - Jarvis Svechnikov - McTavish - Stankoven Martinook - Staal - Carrier Hall - Kotkaniemi - Robinson Jost - Jankowski Slavin - Miller Nikishin - Chatfield Gostisbehere - Walker Reilly Andersen Kochetkov I’d do Blake, Felix-Unger-Sorum, and 27 2nd for McTavish.
    • Very true on the length but stuff like this is never where we shine. We aren’t a good team at drafting.
    • Homerism aside, the more I see from Dan, the more impressed I am.  His player evaluation instincts. Last year his 2 premier FA signings, Hunt and Lewis COMPLETELY changed the line and I have a feeling his success in choosing blue chip guys will continue.  Look at the panthers’s rep for FA signings in the past. By and large, it’s been guys 1 year past their prime who had an injury and suckered our GM in to a crippling contract. We never get nice things. When was the last time this team signed 2 young blue chip studs  in the same offseason to contracts worthy of their impact? Ever?  Im telling y’all, players respect and trust Morgan.
