Deng would be a good addition but I don't see that happening. Hornets are in a good position right now just need to make smart moves in free agency. I expect another playoff berth (since the east is terrible).
The pick they got was from the Pistons. it was about them sucking. The Hornets were very lucky that the Cavs jumped to #1. Otherwise they wouldn't have gotten a pick.

Didn't we have Livingston a season or two ago?
The Bobcats 2014 pick was Top 10 protected. Had we sucked, we absolutely would have had our own pick.
07 is right. Big Al's signing was met with some frustration because people thought he would put us in the 35 win range. A lot of fans wanted Noel and tank the 13-14 season. A lot of us were OK sucking another year ( won 7 and 21 games the prior 2 years), knowing the name change and a boost in fan support was coming in 14-15 anyway.

OK....but with how the rest of the east tanked it may have been difficult to be in the Top 10 this year.
The Sixers and Bucks wanted me to play for them.
Let's keep this thread forward looking. Right now the Hornets have 13 million in cap room from moving Haywood. McRoberts has a 5 million dollar cap hold until he either signs with us or someone else or we renounce him. If we do renounce him because of Vonleh and Zeller we'll have 18 million in cap space.
Needs in FA:
1. Back up PG
Options (in order of probable cost): Shaun Livingston, Avery Bradley, Patty Mills, Greivis Vasquez, Steve Blake, Devin Harris, Jerryd Bayless, Aaron Brooks
2. More wing shooting, PJ is not enough on his own.
Chandler Parsons, Luol Deng, Gordon Hayward, Mike Miller, Alan Anderson
3. A mentally insane, and insanely athletic and gifted 2 guard that may or may not take the step to All Star status or the leap off the cliff into total lunacy.

I would be very surprised if Vonleh isn't starting my Xmas or maybe even sooner.
Strength is on of Vonleh's biggest positives. He's 6'9, 247 already.
