Well that's the problem. What's "good enough" at this juncture?

Have we not learned anything from our Carolina Panthers in this area?

I don't see us getting a proper return value right now with the rest of the NBA knowing our predicament. Look at what the Pelicans have dealt with in relation to Zion. The best path is to revisit this next year where there is a high probability his value will increase with improvement under Charles Lee. The biggest variable is the question of how much he will actually play. We just have to wait and see.

I know one thing. The NBA better give us minimum another top 3 pick.

If he doesn't play and you can get a first for him, take it and run. He doesn't do the team any good sitting on the bench joking with his boys.

I'm sure the NBA is ready to give the Hornets their traditional pick again.

Worst top of the draft in a while…so we’ll surely get #1 overall.

Hornets always get #2/3 when there’s a generational player at #1.  

Anthony Davis vs MKG.

Shaq, AD, Wemby, Dwight, ANT.

Hoping for some blind luck this year.

Ha, ha. Hornets gonna Hornet.

Picking 6th in a year where there isn’t even a consensus Top 1-2-3 or 4.

LOL the Bobcats couldn't get the first pick with what I assume is still the worst single season win % in NBA history but the Hawks get it with 36 wins.

Rigged.

I was upset seeing where we are picking... but Hawks getting number 1 pisses me off. What a joke the lottery is every year

Eh. We got lucky last year.

Agree, it mattered last year and we got a superstar. We should get a very very good starter this year as well.

Oh yes, that one lucky lottery in 20 years of being in the lottery

We lucked up to get Lamelo, too.

Weak draft class this year. I'm not gonna lose sleep over it.

This draft is so unpredictable.

Hoping that one of Risacher or Dillingham are available, would also take Castle.

In a trade down scenario, I’d take Knecht or McCain.

Hornets drafting Reed Sheppard at #6

The draft lottery is a joke. There is 100% a better way to stop tanking. How about if you tank, you forfeit your draft pick. Boom, solved. All the lottery does is punish truly bad teams. The NBA just uses it for rigging and ratings.

How do you prove tanking? 

Only sure fire and best way to stop tanking is promotion/relegation.
