I don't see what could go wrong drafting a talented guy who has been involved with guns.

5/17/2023 7:50:14 PM

It is hard to think the Hornets will pick well since biyambo, kaminsky, morrison, etc. just my opinion

5/17/2023 8:02:33 PM

or Michael Kidd Gilchrist who was also terrible

But they've had some good picks too (LaMelo, Mark Williams, Miles, PJ). Obviously Miles has fucked up but he is a good player.

5/17/2023 8:44:05 PM

So it’s either gonna be Scoot or Miller?

5/18/2023 11:58:47 AM

That seems to be the consensus at this point

5/18/2023 3:51:45 PM

I'm still on Team Scoot. They better not trade the pick for Zion.

6/13/2023 10:41:57 PM

I would trade the pick for Zion

6/13/2023 10:57:53 PM

too much injury risk for me, and I think Scoot has All-NBA potential

6/13/2023 11:12:25 PM

don’t trust the training staff/ownership in New Orleans

new owner in Charlotte could bring in a great training staff and a change of scenery could be all Zion needs

not like the talent isn’t there

6/13/2023 11:16:32 PM

The talent is definitely there, it's not about that. But Zion has played less games in the last 4 seasons than Gordon Hayward has played in the last 3 seasons. I can't trust Zion to stay healthy. If New Orleans is willing to trade a talent like Zion for an unknown draft pick, they must have some serious concerns about Zion's health as well.

6/13/2023 11:20:00 PM

Admittedly not an NBA fan, but does any of this mean the Hornets might suck any less than before?

6/14/2023 12:21:12 AM

They will win at least 32 games this season, if that helps answer your question

6/14/2023 12:45:15 AM

Scoot measured 6'4" with shoes recently, which should address some of the concerns of the moronic fans who think 6'2" just couldn't possibly work for a guard in the NBA

6/15/2023 11:41:19 PM

So Jordan still gets to make the pick even though he’s selling the team? Good thing he has a long track record of good draft picks.

6/21/2023 8:03:04 PM

Well, Mitch makes the pick but Jordan has final say. Which is potentially terrible.

Absolutely not

Sounds like steam is gaining for Brandon Miller at 2. Based on the small corner of Hornets/NBA Twitter that I follow.

6/22/2023 6:12:45 AM

Just reading that on a few outlets as well

6/22/2023 6:55:15 AM

of the three options, he was my least preferred option

6/22/2023 11:01:21 AM

This might not be worth shit but

Bilas out there affecting lines

6/22/2023 12:21:40 PM

I am pumped that Scoot has taken over in Vegas in the last 12 hours

6/22/2023 1:36:56 PM

not so pumped that Miller has become the new betting favorite

6/22/2023 7:14:08 PM

gross

6/22/2023 8:22:15 PM

MJ had to fuck up one more draft before heading out, respect.

6/22/2023 8:25:09 PM

Yeah a movie. A greek tragedy. Melo is a veteran

6/22/2023 8:27:15 PM

I too am not so pumped.

6/22/2023 8:35:18 PM

Will dude play more than 50% of the games this year?

6/22/2023 9:03:44 PM

Nick Smith Jr is good value at 27. Or he could be the next Monk/Bouknight.

6/22/2023 11:04:55 PM

Thanks for Scoot! not sure why ya'll did that but hopefully we can flip him for someone to help dame

6/23/2023 12:56:45 AM

I feel at this point Portland has to think that they don’t want to beg for a team to trade for Dame. And Dame wants to not rebuild. Should be easy to fix

6/23/2023 1:23:28 AM

probably trying to do whatever to make Melo comfortable about signing his rookie extension. poverty franchises gotta do what they can.

6/23/2023 2:23:35 AM

Leaky Black? Jesus. He kinda sucks, right?

I don’t think that’s gonna happen. They’ll trade Dame before they trade Scoot

6/23/2023 8:16:27 AM

^^I think he's regarded as a good defensive player. But it doesn't seem likely that he'd make the team, maybe he can play for the Swarm.

6/23/2023 9:06:26 AM

Quote :

I mean he's a good defender but he is decidedly not good at anything else and proved it over and over again for 5 full years. This is one of those things that make state fans not like the hornets. It reeks of Kupchak doing the UNC guy a favor.

^he wont be able to score in Greensboro either

6/23/2023 9:14:40 AM

Yeah. I generally think the “Hornets/Bobcats always go out of their way to draft/roster UNC guys” thing is kinda dumb and not really accurate in recent years. But this one is pretty funny. I get that he’ll just be a G Leaguer but like Justin said…He’s a good defender that brings nothing to the table offensively. And he’s old. Kinda feels like a total waste. Not really worth actually getting upset about. But it’s funny.

What a dumbass prediction.

Miles back for 1 year, $7.9 million

Melo got a 5 year, $203M contract yesterday. $260M if he makes an All-NBA team which is doubtful.

40.6 mil a year for a couple broken hands and feet

7/2/2023 4:37:51 PM

Miller isn't exactly lighting it up in summer league so far...

7/5/2023 11:15:46 PM

Good. Let's get another high pick then they can all make a leap together

7/6/2023 7:46:46 PM

Hornets vs the Spurs in Victor Wembanyama's summer league debut on ESPN

Wemby bad now???

7/8/2023 6:19:34 AM

Bridges is such an idiot

10/12/2023 6:00:36 PM

Brandon Miller with 16 points at halftime. He's looked pretty solid so far in his young career.

10/30/2023 8:13:20 PM

Squeaked by Pacers today

11/4/2023 10:44:46 PM

Bridges back tomorrow night

11/16/2023 2:50:38 PM

Best Hornets game I've watched in awhile
