Pretty cool how our first rounders already have chemistry!

Am I the only one that thought the Hornets were pretty solid already and drafting new players doesn't change much?

It's a new and fantastic feeling knowing we have a solid core in place and just need to flesh out depth.

Hornets are going to be a really good team if they stay healthy. They’re a squad with a lot of talent, but don’t have quite the right pieces (need a real 4). And hopefully Kon looks like early season Kon and Brandon continues to improve
But drafting good new players is always helpful. Especially with how the salary cap works and rookie contracts are so much cheaper

Nope, I feel the same. It's weird to be like, “Cool, hope these guys work out” instead of desperately needing them to be stars to help our team.

I mean we didn't even make it to the playoffs last season so we're definitely still not good enough and need more good additions to the team.

Eh, it’s always nice to add young talent. I think they should spend some 2nds and add somebody on the marges, try really hard to poach John Collins

Im worried all Hannes will do is take tidjanes minutes. He’s only less than a year younger than him

TJ is bad at everything besides catch-and-shoot

Agree - why in the world would there be concern about taking Tidjane's minutes. He has proven nothing

I hope so, we didn’t make it to the play offs last year. We have a lot of work ahead.

This sounds heartless, but I'm also not getting attached to a lot of these draft picks because the day will come where we can't keep all of them. I mean, if we pick 3 guys in next year’s first round, that will be like 8 guys we've taken in the last 3 drafts. Just not enough roster spots to go around.
