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

    • lol, that second part is quite literally one of the dumbest things ever. Having or not having guaranteed contracts has absolutely nothing to do with how much these billionaires have to pay.  Because there is a hard cap and a minimum cap spend requirement, and teams either use their cap or roll it over to use it all the next year, so the owners have to pay the same amount of money in the end no matter what. Having fully guaranteed contracts in the NFL would only hurt salary cap management, and thus would end up screwing over the team and its fan base when teams kiss on signings as they take up cap room that is needed to improve the roster. Look at the Browns with Watson, they gave him the fully guaranteed deal and all it’s doing is sucking up massive cap space now.  If they hadn’t done that, the owner would still be paying the same amount of money each year as that cap space would still be used elsewhere. If you want to argue for fully guaranteed contracts because the players deserve it, that’s an entirely different argument and a fair one to discuss.  But anyone against fully guaranteed deals isn’t doing it to argue for the billionaire owners.

    • Ryabkin could be the steal of the draft, he was a Top 10 pick heading into last season and had a rough year.  Lots of GMs passed on him because of that and his workouts. Pick has really high upside and Svech should be able to translate Rod tearing his arse a new one for making dumb plays since Svech has had several years of it.  🤣😂
