This was a bad idea I think that either there should be no general nba forum and post threads in hornets forum, or Have a General NBA section for actual threads not just 1 thread with a bunch of stuff In it. I personally would like to see titles Individually not have to go through pages and pages of this thread to find a story

An extra forum costs Zod $. Besides, if it gains as little traction as some in here are predicting it becomes pointless. This compromise allows the Panthers fans who aren't Hornets fans a reason to generate traffic in the forum while saving the Huddle some money.

Big game threads especially late in the year can take up an OT thread in the forum since they could potentially have playoff ramifications for the Hornets but this is more for acknowledging "Hey! Klay Thompson had a good day!" or "Hey! I'm at a Nets game this is cool!"

I dont want to talk about other teams, but am interested when KD goes down for a significant amount of time or Westbrook or Paul George and think this would be an appropriate place to place those types of things. or a funny incident happening on the court, or off the court. whatever..

 

Im a fan of the NBA, not just the Hornets... but I only support the Hornets til death!!

you sound very ignorant. The nba is different than the nfl every team matters because you play them all multiple times. & I'm a basketball fan just as much as a hornets fan. I was a bobcats fan when they were horrible so don't come at me with "go join la or Chicago huddle"

Awwe look at all of u getting so defensive. Bless you're hearts.

I understand people wanna talk about other teams. But this mainly a Carolina sports team forum. And this specific sun forum is for the charlotte hornets.

If someone wants to go super in depth about the lakers they should go join a lakers forum.

Before your panties get soaked calm down. My post wasn't 100 percent serious. So Michael Newton calm your tits

      My one and only mock draft

      By ECHornet · Posted

      Walker/Stewart>Mykel on EDGE for me I’d still like to add TMac.    The only two WRs we have contracted beyond this year are XL and Coker (ERFA). Moving forward with TMac and those two feels much better.

      keaton is a former Catamount.  The list I saw had only 2--Sanker and Emmanwori.  But I do recall hearing about Bowman. The theory that we are looking for specific hybrid safeties is upheld by this.  Keaton fits the "type" who can play zone or deep and in the box.  "He's a physical player with a high motor and a nose for the football. He has a good understanding of zone coverage and can play in the box as a force defender. Keaton is a leader and has earned a single-digit jersey number at Temple, a tradition reserved for team leaders." At WCU, he averaged 6.5 tackles per game, leading the team before transferring. Sanker has special teams abilities and a high football IQ.  He can cover TEs and RBs and keeps the play in front.  He would be a nice fit as a depth player.  I did not know they met with Bowman at the SR bowl.  He is more of a free safety who struggles in tackling/run support, but that is not to say he is not versatile within his capabilities. Stark is a SS who is a brutal hitter, but I don't see his hybrid qualities--they met with him at the Combine when everyone was in the building, but that was nearly 2 months ago and I don't think there has been contact since. Emmanwori is who they would love to have in my opinion.  NFL Draft Buzz:  "His ability to play in the box, handle man coverage responsibilities, and deliver bone-crushing hits makes him an ideal fit for defenses that ask their safeties to wear multiple hats." So it seems they are looking for a type.  The Keaton pick is intriguing to me because he is a sleeper who would clearly be there in round 5 or later.  They seem attracted to his characteristics, and he is a thumper who can play deep.  To me, the fact that they want 2 hybrid safeties of a certain type is rather obvious.  Maybe I am forcing a round peg into a square hole, but I love trying to see what skillsets teams value to guess draft picks.
