With the 9th overall pick, the Charlotte Hornets select.....

Frank Kaminsky the 3rd-  C-  Wisconsin

Michael Jordan still struggles as a front office exec.

I like Frank. Just not that high. Could have traded down if that was your first pick.

I think he would still be there 2 or 3 picks later.    You have to try to at least see if you can trade down, if he is your target.
No cause, ever, in the history of all mankind, has produced more cold-blooded tyrants, more slaughtered innocents, and more orphans than socialism with power. It surpassed, exponentially, all other systems of production in turning out the dead. The bodies are all around us. And here is the problem: No one talks about them. No one honors them. No one does penance for them. No one has committed suicide for having been an apologist for those who did this to them. No one pays for them. No one is hunted down to account for them. It is exactly what Solzhenitsyn foresaw in The Gulag Archipelago: "No, no one would have to answer. No one would be looked into." Until that happens, there is no "after socialism."

No, there are a couple of really good picks so far.    There are also a lot of picks that explain why these teams are annually picking at the top of the draft.

I hope so man.  Really rooting for him. 

If he's the best available player the Sixers will take him, that's all they do, I don't even think they evaluate anybody, they just watch ESPN and go off of Jay Bilas best available and go from there.  The thought process of their front office and how they are trying to rebuild is just horrible.  Feel bad for their fans.

Kevin Love is the Laker target, not LeMarcus.  Aldridge is heading back to one of the three teams in Texas.

Secondary possibility is signing Dwyane Wade.

He never really had more than spotty NBA athleticism, and as the game has changed to focus on mobility,  its crushed his window as an effective NBA player.

You notice how he has to make it about himself?  It should be all about the kids with coaches nowhere in sight. But there he is, front and center so everyone can see him.

Yea, you don't see any other coaches hungry for the spotlight like he is.  He always has to be the center of attention and always arguing with reporters, it's so weird.
