I was doubtful at first but I'm coming around on him. I can see him and Bouknight serving as the heat-check Monk role by committee off the bench..

One of them should be able to score on any given night.. I think it would be rare for them both to be off - and it takes a lil pressure off of Bouknight to be at 15ppg guy that we lost in Monk..

Either the 2nd Martin bro or Richards will be cut to make room for him.. I think Cody brings proven ability to play D on the wing and it will be Richards who gets the boot

I don't post here much (mostly Panther forum) but after watching some of the summer league games and some YouTube comments LiAngelo.  I think he's for real.

The Hornet Summer team was a bunch of players trying to show off.  There was little to no passing to the open guy.  LiAngelo consistently was TRYING to play team ball.  Go watch the videos of him during these games you'll see what I mean. 

Bouknight was abysmal.  Terrible shot selection, wasn't looking for the open man, turnover after turnover and did nothing to impress me.  I'm not worried though, once he gets to training camp he'll be reared in. 

Ball may not be a starter or even a major contributor but IMO he has the skills and toughness to play in this league.  I also would not look past the Ball combination.  LeMelo is amazing at finding the open man and big brother knows this.  Plus LeMelo knows when the ball is in his hand if LiAngelo isn't standing wide open for a three he'll be cutting to the basket.  Don't underestimate this combo. 

The videos mention that he can guard 1 through 4.  

I hope he makes the team.  

If they got all three Ball's what fun it would be.

Stick around bro. You belong. The Hornets forum is actually a better place sometimes.

      What do you grade this draft?

      By Newtcase · Posted

      I didn’t like this draft at all. XL, our first pick had one good season out of five and doesn’t have burst off the line.  I wanted Ladd here because I think he’d have been a much better pairing for BY9s weak arm.  We need to be an excellent west coast style offense if Bryce is gonna shine.  A burner that takes 3 steps to get moving and doesn’t separate at the line is a bad choice IMO. I don’t even want to talk about drafting a RB after having Foreman make us feel better about trading CMC only to send him packing and give Sanders top FA money last year to fall on his face.  We always try to get cute and find value.  The fact that we were the first team to take a RB (one recovering from a serious injury no less) tells you we didn’t get the memo 31 other teams got.  RB has a huge role in protection responsibility, it’s a huge reason some great backs are situational…they suck in protection.  A rookie RB helping protect BY doesn’t warm my heart.  We should have taken the top C on the board here IMO. LB and yet another project TE that’ll probably just frustrate us all for how long he hangs around seemingly doing nothing.  Then a bunch of dice rolls that aren’t changing any fortune unless it’s a complete accident. TLDR This whole draft looks like JAGs to me at best.  I don’t like the XL or JB picks at all.  Always happy to be wrong when I have a negative take.

      Sugar Defender Supplement - What You Should Be Aware In Update 2024

      I'll tell you how you should benefit from using this in a moment. However, things are alright now. You might have to be really skilled to use their find effectively. I'm not the most ideal customer when it is put alongside that condition. Here are the pros. I put my foot in my mouth. I had high expectations. We'll face up to reality. My notion is based around my assumption that nobody has a partiality concerning doing that. There is a culture that has been built around some hindrance and also you should understand how some command will impact your life. Really honestly, if you actually reckon about it, how good is that stuff? Whenever somebody experiences the doohickey, it is best that they do not hesitate to talk to a professional.    OFFICIAL WEBSITE ----> https://www.onlymyhealth.com/sugar-defender-reviews-blood-sugar-supplement-complaints-1709036624   Go Down For More Info:-   https://www.onlymyhealth.com/puravive-reviews-side-effects-and-complaints-1709979035 https://www.onlymyhealth.com/fitspresso-reviews-coffee-loophole-recipe-dangerous-side-effects-and-complaints-1710235827   https://medium.com/@lancebrum/sugar-defender-buyer-beware-heres-the-real-story-must-read-cfbe26c6a174 https://hackmd.io/@lancebrum/SugarDefender https://www.eventogo.com/event/sugar-defender-supplement-what-you-should-be-aware-in-update-2024/ https://www.techdirectory.io/new-york/adtech/sugar-defender https://gamma.app/docs/Sugar-Defender-Buyer-Beware-Heres-The-Real-Story-Must-Read-7vy0ew8b8doq9hm https://jciodev.microsoftcrmportals.com/forums/general-discussion/59f21551-e405-ef11-a81c-6045bd0b2619 https://pgccouncilcsp.powerappsportals.us/forums/general-discussion/604e7f79-e405-ef11-a73d-001dd806eee4 https://thecontingent.microsoftcrmportals.com/forums/general-discussion/5f1e49b0-e405-ef11-a73d-6045bd01c1cc https://twor.microsoftcrmportals.com/forums/support-forum/1bf52a1d-e505-ef11-a73d-6045bd3fd1cb
