What did you guys want at #12?

Washington is 6’8” and he can shoot

good rebounder and defense

this guy is NOT mkg or monk

a good pick for us

It's a meh pick. Our specialty

Sounds identical description to a T arguing the Monk pick over Mitchell 2 years ago

[Shocker]

These people have never seen PJ Washington play.  Bunch of biotches

[MadHatter]

Typical botched pick by the Hornets.  Guy has a low ceiling and will be nothing more than a bench player in his career.

worst drafting franchise in the history of professional sports

Bridges should be playing the 4, Washington plays the 4. They are almost identical type of players. Like most have said it's a redundant pick and only works if you can develop and play both Bridges and Washington together

I live in Kentucky and saw about every UK game this year.  He is undersized...marginal shooter..not a great athlete.  He is mediocre and will be a bench role player in this league.  Even the UK fans around here say the same thing.

Yep, we don’t take a chance for a hidden gem with the French  guy and go for the safe boring pick. Worst franchise in sports 

[OldNorthPowell]

Well, some things never change. Another safe pick or meh pick instead of taking risks.  Same crap, different day. Even the Cleveland Browns think we are terribly managed.

[Wanderlai]

I honestly don’t think Jordan can even sell this team. It’s something like a tax write off or flea market material at this point. If they sign Kemba to a max deal he should just give him the keys to the building on his way out 

[SmokinwithWilly]

We interrupt your Panthers offseason for the Hornets draft pick. We now return you to reruns of Friends. Is it time for training camp yet?

I bet Mitch was begging teams to take our pick and some combo of our bad contracts 

everybody needs to remember...bimbo, Marvin, mkg are all gone in a yr

and batum in 2 yrs

Problem is

Once those guys are gone and we have cap.  What do we have to entice a big FA to come to such a disfunctional organization 

 

We'll just be forced to over pay for a avg guy again

[MrBubba]

Any rumors of Hornets trading pick like last year?

[Yaboychris28]

I like the pick. Not much better options at that spot in the draft.

Well....we here in Carolina say the same about little, actually worse

i bet he ends up being a good shooter

I live in KY now, but was born and raised in NC...and am a big Tarheel fan.

I would not take Little either.  He is a great athlete, but really showed he was undisciplined and has a low basketball IQ this past season.
