still thinking around 8 wins this year.

progress on our part and also we've got a ridiculously (at the moment) easy schedule. 

of course people look at us and see us as an easily winnable game as well, but i'm going to err on the side of us.

I'm sticking with Vagas and the 4.5 wins. I think we lose the war of attrition along the way and our depth will not be good enough to take the over.

I certainly hope you're right though. It will be much more fun playing spoiler to playoff hopefuls.

Im thinking 6 wins. Bryce shows massive improvement from his rookie season. We end up with a top 5 pick and draft Travis Hunter who we will use him primarily as a DB.

I’m thinking 5-6 wins too. Would rather have Will Johnson. Or even more would like to trade down 3-4 picks. Get another 2nd rounder. Morrison, Starks, Carter, Williams, or Graham.  Someone will still be there assuming a run on QBs.

If we win 8 games, I would consider that to be a very successful season.  We aren't winning 8 games unless we have something at coach and QB, which would be fantastic.

Johnson is elite, I just think Hunter is more dynamic. He's a threat after the INT. He can put points on the board on defense. Those type of defensive players are rare.


I do agree though DB is probably the position I would go if we do end up with a top 5 pick.

The key is letting Bryce make plays but not centering everything on him. Let him be the point guard and other guys do the heavy lifting as he distributes the ball and calls audibles. He can't do it all yet, maybe he never will, but he can be a critical cog in the offensive wheel and move the ball. I look at what Canales did with Mayfield and it gives me hope.

      Charlotte Hornets Offseason Moves

      By jfra78 · Posted

      Bleacher Report trade and mock has us trading to 9 and picking SG Brayden Burries Charlotte Hornets recieve: Kyrie Irving and No. 9 pick Dallas Mavericks receive: LaMelo Ball, No. 14 pick and No. 18 pick The Hornets just finished their sixth season with Ball. It was only their second with a winning record, their sixth without a playoff trip and the sixth in which someone else paced them in win shares (Kon Knueppel this time around). While they'd surely like to keep building on their second-half momentum, maybe they're just unconvinced that Ball can lead a winning team. Maybe they credit that stretch run less to him and more to the addition of Knueppel, the ascension of Brandon Miller and some out-of-nowhere gains on the defensive end.   Charlotte should be dreaming big right now, and perhaps it believes a steadier hand at point guard is needed to realize that. Or maybe it feels it needs a little more time to bring everything together and thinks that task would be simpler without Ball's money on the books and with a top-10 pick in a loaded draft instead of two selections in the mid-teens.   Either way, this shakeup works. Short-term, a healthy Irving should be far easier to follow than Ball. You may not always know if Irving is playing, but you know what you'll get if he does: elite shotmaking, all-time handles, offensive ingenuity and the ability to work both on and off the ball. He could show this young roster what's required to win for a year or two (he has a $42.4 million player option for 2027-28) or even stick around longer if the partnership proves especially fruitful.   The Hornets also add a building block in Burries, who offers both plug-and-play polish and flashes of shot-creation that hint at star potential. In short, they could better their chances of winning both now and in the future while collecting both the best player in the trade and the highest draft pic

      Maybe? Maybe....?

      I'd hire him in a heartbeat. Hell if he wanted the job, I'd have Canales packing his poo right now and I don't dislike Canales. It's just that firing a 106-58 coach is crazy work. That's a 65% winning percentage. That's the equivalent of averaging 11 wins a season. That's incomprehensible for a fanbase That's never experienced back to back winning seaons.
