Hornets have beat the Raptors, Celtics, and Spurs in their last three games, but none of that matters. Another pointless win coming right up...

No win is pointless if it rebuilds some sorely needed team chemistry going forward. A slot or two for crapshoot lottery picks is what's pointless.

Do we have a thread where we discuss the benefits of synthetic oil vs regular? This is as good a place as any...

I would agree normally but I think 75% roster won’t be here next year

80% chance the pick won't be either. I'm not thinking they wan to have a 4-5 year locked in salary until we have the second star here.

I think we'll use the pick as part of a deal to fill out the team if/when we get the next star. To me, this is an all or nothing summer. All bets will be off.

Good point, but if that’s the case the better the pick the better trade
