    he means he doesnt want us in position where we can take him because he doesnt want us to take him, im sure he wants the best pick available he just hopes noel isnt the pick.

    Really our biggest need is a defensive SF that can shoot 3's. that's why I'm not fired up about Bazz cause he all offense but porter is good on both sides. I'm not saying he's going to be all all pro but I think he'll be perfect for us with the team we have. I'm pulling for porter and getting granger from the pacers hopefully cheap so they get out from his contract.

    Getting Porter and Granger in one off season sounds like a dream, Where do I sign?

    U must be misunderstanding what I mean. All I'm trying to say is he was always having little nagging injuries left n right always being something. By nagging I mean small stupid injuries. Did he not??

    i think bazz is a better defender than people give him credit for, he is only 18, ive seen flashes of him being a very good defender, with a defensive coach he would be a great 2 way prospect

    ya he does but they arent genetic injuries or reoccuring, davis also has a ton of little nagging injuries, they are both kids and will get stronger, they r just getting banged up by men. no homo.

    I guess I get what you're saying but what I'm saying is that they WERE all small and unrelated. Nothing to be overly concerned about imo.

    I can guarantee u that the hornets fo has at least 3-4 players they will draft ahead of Noel. That's what I'm saying.

    Exactly. Maybe i made it sound a certain way.i wasn't trying to say he's injury prone I was just trying to point out it seemed like he kept getting small dumb injuries. Maybe I shouldn't of used nagging since it mainly means the same injury over n over. Just was using it As small stupid pain in the azz injuries. Lol

    Also if u think him tearing his acl which is a VERY BIG DEAL doesn't factor into demps n montys evaluation of him u are mistaken. Considering our max guy is hampered with a knee injury that wasn't even a torn acl and what it has put us through up til this point thus far will def be taken into consideration. I'm not making it as simple as oh Gordon has knee injury n it's totally screwed us up so far then we def cant draft Noel cuz of his knee. But if u think it doesn't come into play at some point again u r mistaken. A torn acl on a basketball player is a VERY BIG DEAL.

    i just want mclemore, we get an elite SG and can dump gordons stupid max contract

    As Far as bpa goes. If the bpa is a franchise type of guy. A cant miss prospect or a future all star. The by all means no matter of needs u take him. Sorry but noel does not fit the bill. Factor in the torn acl and he def does not fit the bill. U don't go bpa when the margin is slim to none. I don't even see how Noel is bpa anyway over mclemore,smart,porter,bazz or Burke. Not only is the bpa argument all very close to even with these guys except mclemore of course but these guys have healthy knees.

    The kid has alot to show me in Tourney time. I was his biggest fan beginning of the season, but his lack of killer instinct has worried me. I'm rooting for him though.

    ya he does defer to teammates a lot. if he had bazz's killer mentality he would be unstopable.

    I don't think Burke is a top 5 prospect. Just my opinion. For now I would prefer McLemore, Noel, Smart, Bennett, Porter, and Shabazz more than him. And right now Oladipo is a better player and only a few months older even though Burke was much better as a sophomore compared to Oladipo.

    It annoys me when people say Burke is really quick. He's not.

    His team has fallen apart too lately and if they get upset in the first round, that may hurt his stock. Especially if Nate Wolters has a big game and lights him up.
