Just fyi.



Will this call for fish sticks or something more potent?

If anyone other than us moves into the top 3 I hope it's Detroit. Them moving up would shift the draft board in our favor if we want to trade up. But otherwise hell yea to us getting a top 3 pick!

Whale Meat?

My prediction, We won't be picking 9th. We either get a top 3 or we get jumped. My gut says a top 3, history says we get jumped.

Any word on our representative?

That's wonderful. He's our best player. He should be the face of the team. And it shows the confidence he has and the team in him talking in front of millions on TV.

Only fitting our best player represents the team. When MKG shows up, good things usually follow. If we get a top 3 pick I might actually try his turkey burger or whatever.

I'm a vegetarian, but I cheated and tried the MKG. It's actually seriously delicious. I'd recommend it regardless of lottery outcome.

Talk about a turnaround. From needing speech therapy to announcing our draft pick.

Awesome that MKG feels comfortable enough to do this.

That's a really good point, I hadn't even thought of that. I guess watching all of his interviews this season, I kind of just started forgetting about his old speech issues. He's just become way more comfortable and capable of speaking in front of a camera.

I love MKG. I feel like whomever drafts Justise Winslow is basically getting their own MKG, and he might end up being the most intangibly valuable draft pick this year.

MKG at the lottery means pick 9 confirmed. Adam Silver just gave MJ the courtesy of advance notice since he's the GOAT and was such a good sport about the Anthony Davis thing.

We need some lottery luck in the worst way.

i hope we get into the top 3.

we usually win when MKG plays, maybe the same applies to the lottery.

I actually love MKGs interviews. He never really answers the questions they ask him. He always answers with a short, super generic answer then repeats the answer.

I could see the following exchanges

Q: Michael, it was a disappointing season for the Hornets. What do the Hornets need to get better.
MKG: Um... Just get better. Just get better.

Q: What parts of your game are you working on this year.
MKG: Um... Everything. Everything.

We should've sent Lance. He already has the appropriate reaction for when the lottery gods screw us once more:

Weird looking Asian guy: "The 14th pick belongs to... the Charlotte Hornets"

Anyone have a link to the percentage odds of getting the 4th pick or the 3rd or the 8th pick or whatever?
