...when they're still stuck on acting like they don't believe picking MKG at #2 was a mistake? They are living a lie, and that's their biggest problem. Perpetrators.  

But I don't know what you guys are mad about. You wanted a guy at #2 who couldn't shoot at all when shooting was the team's biggest need, and most of you still bullheadedly argue in favor of the pick to this day. Why would the Hornets pick over MKG?

Now calm down. Those of you talking about Winslow like he's a superstar in the making sound ridiculous. He'll be a better NBA player than MKG, though, which I'm sure the Hornets knew when they passed on him.

Them thinking that because he is their best player they can't move on from him instead of comparing him to other teams' best players and deciding that they need a better "best player" so they need to move on from him.

I actually agree with all of this. Cho and Jordan refuse to draft anyone who could start over their precious MKG. It's fuging sickening.

Man, you must either be a hardcore UNC fan or you're trying to convince yourself that Winslow sucks and that's the reason why MJ didn't draft him with outrageous claims like that.

Winslow is a great defender. He can guard up to three positions (Power Forward, Center and Shooting Guard) and he possesses top notch athleticism and decent size/reach to accompany his defensive tenacity. While his outside shooting and free throws do need improvement, he has a smoother and more fluid shot than MKG will ever have.

Justise will be more than just a role player.

I think Winslow is going to be a solid player. Role player on a good team or a nice 2nd unit guy. Winslow will never be THE guy on a championship team. 

He is 6'4. He will not be able to guard NBA PF's. 

Frank is better. Elite scorer, shooter. Good rebounder. Good shot blocker. Very good passer. Good handle for his size. Great feel around the basket. Knows how to creat a shot for himself off the bounce. Reason why this guy was national player of the year.

It's kinda wayyyy too early to say that. After all, Winslow was the guy for Duke during tournament run.

Once more, Winslow measures higher than 6'4". The easiest way to confirm that is to check out Dwyane Wade's twitter feed. He met Winslow two months ago and took a pic together. Justise not only appeared taller (an inch minimum) but possessed a thicker frame than Wade too. Males don't stop growing until age 23. That means Winslow might end up at 6'7" -- big enough to handle PFs at size.

Not many share that opinion. Yes, Frank is a better shooter and scorer but rebounder? Nope. Defensively? Not even close. Athletically? Hell no. One of strongest knocks against The Tank is indeed his ability to create his own shot at the next level and handle any type of physicality. Not one scout believes that Frank will be able to do what he did at Wisconsin.

Frank averaged 8 boards a game. 2 blocks. Give him 2 more of each and that is elite level. While not elite those numbers are darn good. Especially when you include them with his offense. 

Frank will easily be able to create his own shot in the NBA, unless he somehow losses his ball handling and coordination. He was a guard in high school. His pump fake, hard jab, spin moves will serve him well in the NBA like they did the NCAA. 

The only knock I see that is legitimate is his physicality in the post. However, you can fix that. I use to be a pussy in the post when I played ball until I got some more meat on my bones and learned how to use my legs, hips, and chest.

Incorrect, I wanted Beal over MKG. I also wanted DeAndre Jordan over Alexis Ajinca. I honestly could've done a better job as a GM for the Hornets than these incompetent ass holes.

      But again, you can restock a defense through free agency much easier than offensive skill positions. Spend all our cap space on defense, take a true elite prospect who also happens to fit a position of need in T-Mac, and then use the rest of our picks on defense. Again, every season there’s a smattering of great DL, LB, and DB options in free agency, a Top 10 WR never hits free agency, ever.  The only way you get one is through the draft or giving up 1st round picks in a trade for one. If he’s there when we’re on the clock, he has to be the pick, he’s just that good.

      Bryce QB School Week 12

      It must be an early Christmas for JT O'Sullivan having Thielen back so he could put a coal in Thielen's stocking every chance he gets.  Honestly, the biggest surprise is not so much the anticipation. There were those moments here and there last year as well. It's that even that one positive quality he had seemingly vanished his first two games to where it looked like it was all but over, only for it to start coming back some until you get exclamation points all over this game film. And some of those throws were under a lot of duress, something I feel is something new. Finally, those deeper shots are starting to land. Not all of them, but enough that defenses may have to start respecting them. No guarantees whether this will end up as more of anomaly but I certainly hope it isn't. The Green Bay game was a sampler of what BY could be. Against KC, we got a meal. If we could start getting these meals regularly, we might actually have something to work with here.
