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

    • The thing I hate about strength of schedule is that NFL teams change so much over a year and past success or failure doesn't really dictate future success or failure
    • Considering you previously struggled to understand BTT despite it being explained in a video, write-up, and multiple replies, I get why this might be a little too complex for you. Happy to clarify again! Just let me know which part tripped you up this time. 😉
    • And, honestly, there's only so much you can attempt to do in the draft. And every draft pick is a roll of the dice. But that's where grabbing a ton of UDFAs, and targeting the best, makes a big difference. Sure, their individual chances of getting a hit here is less, but that shotgun pattern might just hit something.  Right now, we need bulk, partly to rebuild and partly to dilute the deep level of stank that has developed on this team in the last six years. If we're going to rebuild a culture built around culture, accountability and winning, then these UDFAs we bring in each season have to be the wash water that gets out that leftover dirt.  Canales seems to be a smart, culture-first, build up the good ones kind of guy. I like that and I hope he can keep it going here. But he was working against a locker room that had been taught to lose and taught to distrust or ignore coaches. He's got his work cut out for him, still. He does seem to have it moving in the right direction and that's something I was pretty amazed with by the end of last season.
