Hornets NBA Draft News Thread

In this draft, if you get a big that is a 12 / 8 guy I'd say that's a win, honestly.

Draft Oladipo. Watch Colin cowherds video on the NBA draft he released. The true center isn't overly needed in today's nba. You just had a back to back NBA championship team with bosh as their center. A kemba/Oladipo/MKG line would be sick. Defensive wise and what they can grow as offensive. Vic is versitle. He can drive on you or have a nice pull up jumper. He is fast and he's a workhorse and gets the job done. I've been watching him play since he was in the 7th grade. He should be the pick

That NBA team that won with Bosh at center has Lebron James lol.

I would definitely be happy with Zeller.

I saw the video earlier and he was comparing the center position to the point guard position...

 

Cowherd is also an idiot.

Zeller @ #4 is a WASTE of a pick.  If we trade back with Minnesota to #9, Zeller would be OK.

 

We need Anthony Bennett.  Period.

No way....I think Zeller will end up being the better pro

 

Too many "tweeners" like Bennett end up washing out.

 

A mediocre big guy is still an asset.....a mediocre tweener is buried on the bench

Zeller is remarkably soft.  He disappeared in some big games.

 

Bennett is 6'8", but he has a GREAT jump shot.  He can take you to the rim and finish.  He grabs boards.

 

What couldn't the Bobcats do last year?  Score points.  You need a guy that is going to immediately impact on offense, and Zeller absolutely does not do that.

Not that I want him but why is Steve Adams not in question if we trade down? At least he has much longer arms than Zeller.

[4Corners]

Lj could pop a 3 too.

 

So can Bennett. He's almost an identical clone to LJ. LJ was a lot better player though and was apart of some special teams in Vegas.

Have you seen him. He's an intriguing prospect, but has bust potential written all over him. The kid is extremely "RAW". He's going to spend his first year in the D-League.

ECU alluded in his post that Bennet had 3 point range but Lj didn't.

I wouldn't argue that, but can you argue he is worse than Zeller?

Reports are starting to come in that Oladipo will be the Magic's selection at number two and their is a growing consensus that Alex Len will be the Cavaliers draft choice.
