just can't see it with Barnes...he shot 50/141 his last ten games...good for 35%...33% in the tournament

Lots of guys didn't play well or just go through bad streaks. His stroke is undeniable and once he learns to drive consistently he will be an all star. His offensive game will translate better to the league than any of the other potential lottery guys (except maybe Beal). Hornets need scoring more than anything..

If we could get Davis and Robinson Id be thrilled, they are my two favorite players that will be in this draft. I personally think they will be the two that stand out 5 years down the road.
And I dont care that they are both PFs, you need depth to be competitive. Look at the teams that win championships, their backups are legit starters elsewhere.
You have to be two deep at every position anyway and all the others have question marks, these two guys are rock solid picks. Neither will be a gamble/boom or bust pick like the rest in the lottery this year.
I dont see how you could pass on either one of them, regardless of draft slot.
