Stanley Johnson. Great blend of size, athleticism and talent that’s too good for Charlotte to pass up, even if he and MKG look like they’d play the same position. There’s been rumors of MKG getting moved to the backcourt, or Johnson could also potentially play as an oversized 2. Regardless, it’d make for some killer defense on the wings.

But don’t you mean Hornets? Lol

Considering how many high picks the Bobcats/Hornets have had lately, the roster is surprisingly devoid of actual star talent. So since I’m all about finding the biggest "upside", the choice came down to Oubre or Myles Turner. But Turner’s a bit too similar stylistically to Noah Vonleh, imo.

 I have them picking Devin Booker in my mock. His guaranteed translatable skill is the main need Charlotte has to address in order to improve. Defensively Charlotte is not too bad and should be able to hide Booker while he learns and makes progress. I’m not the biggest fan of Booker going forward and don’t believe he is a top 10 pick although given his skill set and the  lack of depth at SG in this draft, hom being one of the youngest eligible playera and thw opportunity he will be provided in Charlotte I think it could work.

Once again I would personally draft Johnson then try to sign and trade MKG for a SG or combo gaurd but I don’t quite see them giving up on MKG.

He’s loaded with upside and has been slipping on draft boards making him a huge value pick. His frame (6’7 240) and defensive ability are beyond exciting, it’s rare these days to see young wings coming out with the strength he has. He will be able to defend at the NBA level right away, and has potential to develope a very solid offensive game as well. Great pick for the Hornets here! Oubre has loads of potential as well, but in my opinion he’s going to need some time to develope his strength before he makes an impact at the next level (perfect pick for OKC)

 I went with Oubre, but they have to go with whoever is the top talent on their board.  

They have no irreplaceable guy.  Even though they have Al Jefferson, Biyombo, and Cody Zeller along with Noah Vonleh, they should even look at Frank Kaminsky, if he is the best overall talent left on the board.  

After that they should also look at Stanley Johnson and Sam Dekker.

 Booker just makes too much sense here for them not to take him as they are desperately in need of outside shooting. I doubt they would go big again after taking Zeller and vonleh the previous 2 years and Stanley Johnson’s skill set overlaps with kidd-gilchrist. I think they’ll take booker unless they trade or plan on trading the pick.

Pick Stanley Johnson. Devin booker will never have the potential defensively close to Stanley Johnson. If the coaching staff can fix MKG shooting mechanics, Stanley will definitely be able to improve offesively as well. Stanley as an oversized 2 and MKG at 3 is some serious defense which allows the team to compete at a higher level.

 I think the Hornets should forget need for a second and I know they just signed Kemba Walker but having a your primary ball-handler who can’t shoot from downtown always put stress on the other wings to have to be proficient from there and they don’t have that either. I know you could just say then improve in those areas on the wing instead but they way I look at Michael Kidd-Gilchrist and the improvements he’s made in his game, I think he can be an elite perimeter defender. He can have a title of being the best in the NBA at a particular thing and still do enough in other areas, there’s nothing I see in Kemba Walker that can be the best at a certain skill that translates into wins. He’s an elite ball-hander but even with and his blow-by quickness, he doesn’t finish inside due to his small stature and doesn’t have good-enough touch on his floaters. Plus, he’s easy to move with his super team-friendly deal at $12M until 2019, well into the new cap. And with shooting guards in this draft, I don’t see Winslow or Hezonja being still on boards and picking the others such as Kelly Oubre, Stanley Johnson, Devin Booker, RJ Hunter and etc. seems a bit pedestrian. Oubre has upside, I just don’t think he’d reach it if drafted by them since the Hornets lack of spacing will hamper on his most needed improvement, which is ball-handling. Plus, Oubre can be a good shooter but I don’t think he should be your team’s best shooter if you’re trying to pair a Walker-Oubre-MKG lineup. Stanley Johnson, to me, faces a lot of similar problems with less upside and I think he’s a bit too heavy to guard shooting guards but I guess you could switch Kidd-Gilchrist on to them since his athleticism and lateral quickness are better. Devin Booker shouldn’t be picked this high. I know he has an elite skill but he doesn’t have nothing else to his game. I think Kentucky hid him on defense since they were so good everywhere else. I don’t think I’d ever since him put the ball on the ground in the half-court that wasn’t just a straight-line drive. And RJ Hunter is good but average to me. 

Now, for Cameron Payne. I just like that he can score at all three levels and has skills to combat that tough finishing that he’ll have to face once he gets to the league. He shot the second most floaters in college basketball and hit them at a decent clip of 47% and I like the change of speed and change of gear that he has to buy him space. And he’s really good off the ball as well. Great pick-and-roll players as a scorer or passer. Also, he attacked the rim enough for me to not worry that he’ll settle for too many outside shots. Even if he doesn’t turn into a very good player, he has enough in his game to be a quality starter and compliment his other teammates out on the floor.

They could select Myles Turner too and I like him, but I don’t see him becoming great since he’s not all the way there yet with his long-range shot, can’t put the ball on the ground and doesn’t create contact inside to draw fouls or get rebounds. Plus, they drafted two big power forwards already in Vonleh and Zeller.

I just think he is the best player available and as much as the Bobcats need shooting, I really don’t even think booker is very close to the prospect Johnson. Is. With a wing duo of Johnson and mkg, you have two tough hard nosed defenders. And I think Johnson will be a solid shooter, certainly better then mkg. Hornets cant afford to play it safe and neglect talent for need. Get a shooter in free agency or down the road.

 i keep hearing the hornets need to make a pick based on who fits with MKG. I dont watch a lot of hornets ball but has MKG shown enough through 2 seasons to suggest you should base how you draft around him? He averaged 11 points and had as many turnovers as assists last season. Im not saying give up on him, but maybe his role will be as a solid energy backup.

 They just drafted Zeller, Vonleh, and Biyombo. I doubt they are going to get rid of Big Al’s contract, and who knows what they’re going to do with Biyombo. So I think it’s safe to assume for this year they will not be drafting a big, as I doubt that guy would get any minutes, and if he did, it would only stunt his and a few other players development. 

CHA is also one of the worst offensive teams in the league last year, ranking 28th in points, 28th in OFrt, were DEAD LAST in 3pnt % at .318%, 2nd to last in FG% at 42%, 20th in FT%, and 28th in assists…Have I made my point clear at this point? The Bobcats need offense, and in the worst of ways. They need scorers, passers, shooters, and anyone who can just make a damn play.

For this pick, and in this situation I think there are only a few options. The just signed Kemba to big money, so you can cross PG off your list, MKG is their cornerstone, so SF too, and they are going to need scoring from the wings. I think with Henderson gone most likely they have to take a SG, and in this instance, Booker is the no brainer at this point in the draft. He’s the best shooter on the board, and has ideal size to play the position. I think he will do wonders for Kemba and MKG, as Henderson wasn’t exactly a floor spacer. I mean, look what Mo Williams put up in CHA. I expect the same type of effect from Booker. 

Also, and I know this goes off of everything I just said, but I wouldn’t be surprised to see Frank Kaminski taken here. If you go back and look at the players who this team drafts (Zeller, Kemba, MKG, Morrison, May, Felton, and so on) they are all high character guys who all were stars in college. Frank fits that description to a T, and would also give them some outside shooting. I know it seems farfetched, but I would not be surprised if he was the pick

I’d trade down if possible.  I personally don’t think Booker is a much better prospect than the other shooters that are being projected as mid-late first round picks, and I’m not sure who else is really worth taking.  Also depends on how Charlotte feels about the development of guys like MKG.

I think the team is kind of a mess, but I think Charlotte’s front office is much more confident in their young guys than I am.
