re: Hornets would trade out of #1 spot

And I like Porter, and would definitely take him at #3, but not over McLemore.

I agree. I think Mclemore has special potential. Higher upside than anybody in this draft, including a healthy Noel

You just don't see many elite-level athletes with great jumpshots. Its usually one or the other. A guy is hyper athletic so he never had to bother learning to shoot. Or a guy learns to shoot because he isn't athletic to just jump over everybody.
I think the young Ray Allen comparisons are legit with him. I'd take him first in a heartbeat and if he's what i think he'll be it makes moving Gordon that much easier.

I'd have Burke 2nd on my list. Porter 3rd. Then i'd decide between Oladipo and Noel if those three are gone.
