Hornets Summer League Roster

And I hope y'all know the real reason for the trade was Jordan not wanting to pay a lottery pick and save a tiny bit of money lol. And getting the nuggets 20 something ish pick for a lottery pick is insane. I have never seen something so cheap and insane....

[Jared Patterson]

Did anyone watch the video of the trade going down? It was rolling around twitter and being laughed at. Kupcheck looked like a senile old man getting finessed out of a lollipop. One of the most unprepared and embarrassing videos I have ever seen. Literally cringe worthy. "We only have two minutes" "hurry and make a deal." Didn't even have a guy like the Panthers evaluating the value of the trade or anything, just an old man guessing. And you can tell they only had one guy in mind b/c that was the only guy Jordan would allow them to take to try to sell seats to some dumb Duke fans that didn't go to Duke. Just like he did w Henderson, Sean Maye, Felton, Vernon Carey, Brandon Wright etc. PLEASE someone tell me I am wrong.

The trade is and was horrendously stupid no matter the justification they attempt to appease the fanbase with. But that does not mean Williams was a bad pick or does not have potential. He should be good for us. If you can't enjoy some basketball without bias over your favorite college team getting in the way sports are officially not healthy for you.

Nick Richards> Williams. You are right Williams wasn't a bad pick it was a horrendous pick.....

Don't give me the Williams is still young. He came out as a sophomore and was older than more than half the first round picks.

The Duke-UNC rivalry is so stupid to observe from the outside. 
 

Judging kids because they wore the wrong shade of blue while shooting a basketball. Jesus. 

Has absolutely nothing to do with that...

Must be really tired of yourself, then

Nick Richards>Mark Williams. Hornets will get a top 5 pick next year, but will miss out on Vic and Scoot. Guaranteed.

Go check my history on this forum and the Panthers. I am hardly ever wrong. ESPECIALLY with my draft takes.

Glad you chose this time, then. Jalen Duren had a lower FG % and fewer blocks, and barely averaged more points per game despite taking more shots. 

Offensive Rating:
Duren 112.6
Williams 142

Defensive Rating:
Duren 91.9
Williams 93.2

Blind as a bat.
