If we could trade up get Jabari or Wiggins that would be unbelievable for the renewed Hornets brand

I think trading both picks and a future 1st will only get us to maybe 5 or 6

Yeah I realized that once i remembered the top picks this year are valued higher than any top picks in years, so i edited. I really think Wiggins is going to be a star and we should try whatever possible to get him

I've seen some mocks having us draft Shabazz Napier with our second pick in the first round.  He's an interesting player, but I don't know drafting another Connecticut guard.  I'm going to look at some highlight vids of him.  We definitely need another guard to back up Kemba.

No5 or no6 could land us Randle, Vonleh, Smart, or even Exum. I'd do it in heartbeat.

 

I'd love to have either Smart or Exum, but then what are you going to do at SG with nothing else left but a 2nd Rd pick and free agency? I suppose at that point you'd have to go after Lance Stephenson. Not saying I'm a fan of that move, but it'd be clear that's probably their plan.

you would trade 3 first round picks for one unproven guy? i mean, 3 first rounders for Love or Rondo or a proven player in the league is one thing, but that is crazy IMO..

I bet he is there but Cho pases on him.

 

Something about Randle just doesn't fit. I suppose his comparison is Zach Randolph, and although Randle is more athletic than Randolph, I'm not sure if Randle can "bully" NBA players in the post like he did in High School, and with his short arms and lack of a consistent jumper, he's a big-time risk. You just drafted Zeller, and since I'm not sure how much you're going to be paying McRoberts to keep him, it would make sense, but I would care if Cho passed on him unless he choose someone like McDermott, which would be stupid.

      Wild Idea.. Trade for Shemar Stewart

      By Basbear · Posted

      3rd and Chandler Zavala.......... Id toss in Yohsi or Brano/DJ Johnson if that's what it took to get the trade done.    Bungals need OL B-A-D   Its un-godly to treat a unique HOF level level like Burrow with the OL they have and seems going to this year. People forgot during that bungal SB year, Burrow was sacked like 62 times and I believe had the highest hurries as well. They should be in jail for this, no memeing....

      Surprise! Kon looks really bad!

      By Basbear · Posted

      I will admit this- Kon doesn't look or play like a 19 year. Much bigger and filled out than I thought he was. Plus initiate the offense during his best quarter and he did make some good passes for FG attempts.   I watch NBA years ago and was a top 3 fantasy yahoo managers for years. Many times a player had like 30 points, it mostly came from one or 2 hot quarters. The others were 5 and 0, so his 16 point game is normal in that regard.    If Ball, bridges, and Miller allow Kon to be apart of the team, just depends on if he clicks of not. Another generic white guy comp popped in my head........he of hornet lore-Gordon Hayward 15 points 5 rebs 3.5 asst Maybe??
