Least likely of any prediction in this thread

It's possible. If Cho and Clifford are fired and Al gets the boot, Hansbrough not re-signed, I can have false hope again. For all that to happen the Hornets have to go on a serious 6ers like losing streak and lock down a top 4 pick.


Which they'll waste on Kyle Wiltjier which prompts me to call for the firing of the new GM.

if we luck into Simmons, do we let Batum walk?

Or am I fooling myself, even the #1 draft pick would only get bench minutes under Clifford

"Well, um, look, Ben is a good kid, but he missed all of summer league with the flu and in this league, and Kemba and Cody will tell you, in this league, its hard for rookies especially if they don't get a chance in the summer."

I hope not. I'd go big with a 4 man wing rotation of him, MKG, Nic, and Lamb.

you could probably get away with starting one of MKG, Nic or Simmons at the 4 against a lot of teams
