No more falling knives….had enough bleeding from previous attempts. Trade up to get a RISER at SG, or a reserve PG.
I continue to wait...and hope...for the return to Hornet's glory.

Why does every draftee look like they just popped a handful of quaaludes?

Now that George is gone, Eason is way better than all of these fools. Way to go Mitch, excellent trade

I wonder why he is the falling knife this year. It seems like teams are wary of him for some reason. Some red flags have obviously been uncovered for him to fall from the top 10.

*looks at Monk and Vonleh*

Okay maybe he shouldn't be looking up to trade for him

You know deep down you'd still do it haha. Also you forgot Bouknight

Are there any team above us that have significant cap space, who might want Rozier and 27?

Only team I can think of is the Clippers only cause they just tried but failed to trade for Brogdon. Terry has a similar contract and somewhat similar player.

I'm more concerned about moving on from Gordon. Wanna be able to open up as much space for Miller.

Didn't know Wemby sounded like Shaggy. The musician, not the dog owner.

If we stay at 27 I see us swinging for a riskier but potential high upside guy like Darin Whitehead.

Ok if the Lakers passed on Whitmore hype, something HAS to be up.
