Man I hate these basketball high schools like Montverde. Congrats on being able to recruit the most talented players I guess. :roll:

Really sad that 14 year olds are sacrificing their academic future on the prayer they make it, all the while reducing the overall competitiveness of high school basketball due to the super teams created.

I do agree with this 1000%. Even if it was a whiff of a draft pick hopefully it sent a message that this is the expectation moving forward. And then they doubled down by adding moose into the mix. I guarantee you those two are the hardest workers in the locker room right now.

Bull****. Clingan the two-time NCAA champ, Edey twice college player of the year wouldn't have been "grinders"? Can't count on either to switch on D though so why didn't Nata fixate on that evaluating what Tidjane and Moose have in common. But that wouldn't fit Nata's agenda.

Ace, Fears and maybe Tre are all better than him though.

I'd be demanding Sarr.

I like Bilal man but that’s a wonky roster fit considering how bad we already shot the ball last year

It’s TIME! This is like that big date night when you were a teenager…hoping that girl you’ve lusted after is finally yours. You dream and plan for months, finally the night is here. And it all ends in a matter,of minutes..either exactly what you hoped for…or a disaster.
I continue to wait...and hope...for the return to Hornet's glory.

Is there a prop bet on an ad during the Hornets pick?

Any of y'all getting types needs to put your entire life savings on it

They’ve ALWAYS dissed us, but tonight will be hot potatoes after the Sixers pick.

BTW…go on and turn in your f*#*&(# pick Dallas.
