    I hope Scoot doesn't have to score that much. I'd rather see 16/12 than 20/10 from him. Of course, I wouldn't mind either.

    I like that too for this season to get the whole team going. Though if you can’t stop the rock, you have to let it roll.

    Any one of us could be the short white dude who played next to MJ.

    I’m good with that too. I want Scoot to be the athletic Chris Paul who yams it on you.

    Were you the guy yelling "Bayless!!" in the 301 section during the season?

    He's definitely going to yam it on people.

    Scoot's "problem" is that he can beat everyone off the dribble. If nobody covers the hoop, he's just got to go and score.
    There are a lot of bad defenses he'll see in the regular season.

    I'm hoping Scoot puts defenses in the same spot Chris Paul did in his prime.

    I know you're kidding, but there's not a single one of us who could score in an NBA game.

    Does anyone know the reasons behind why Murray is so old as a JR in college? Is he a stormin' mormon?

    Well that’s just clearly not true. If I threw enough shots up from half court, eventually one of them would go in….. I think.

    I didn't say "on an NBA court", I said in a game. YOU'RE TWO SECONDS AWAY FROM GETTING THE BAN HAMMER


    wtf was that? I didn't type that. I think there's a glitch in the system @SlyPokerDog

    Yeah… I’m lobbing shots from half court in an NBA game just to prove you wrong!

    You might be in the running for oldest rookie.

    I would agree the centers are the 'biggest' question mark as we have seen so little of them or don't know much about them. They are all from overseas in leagues only Schmitz seems to know about. If just one of them could hit, it would be a big boost for this rotation.

    Hold on, you are reading fans of a teams, and their opinions on a forum and saying THAT is where you are getting your info? You DO read THIS site right? Imagine what other fan bases would think if they actually admitted to reading the nut jobs on here and their opinions..... holy shit. I'm actually good friends with a Hornet's staff member and they are ecstatic with the pick and this kid's work ethic and willingness to grind.
    Now you can choose to believe ME ( I don't really care if you do or not) or you can go to a fan forum and base your opinions on what @BuzzSpeed is posting.
