I still don't understand how any true hornets fan can be cheering for wins at this point


The Hornets have a better than .600 record when Gordon plays so I don't expect a bottom 5 finish and if you aren't going to finish bottom 5 then taking is stupid. Winning means you're an up and comer and makes it easier for Demps to sell Free Agents.

Would you rather have the #7 pick and not be attractive to free agents or the #11 pick and Demps gets his choice of any Free Agent besides the SuperStars?

Anyone we pick is going to be a project like Austin Rivers. Maybe they're the long term answer but it will be a while before they are able to prove they aren't a bust.

I dont think there's too many people who believe that Mohammed and Porter are not going to be legitimate NBA small forwards. one of them is likely going to be there at pick number six. I agree that anything after that is a crapshoot but these two guys will be solid

Both are far more NBA ready than Rivers - so that comparison is a joke.
