Cleanthony turned 23 this year :manny:
that's extremely old in nba years. dude should be in his 5th year in the league. he either needs to pan out immediately or he'll slip. good thing for you guys is that he's a 2nd round flyer so y'alll are fine.

Actually, yeah. PJ is nice. Dropped like two 40 point games within his first week in the D-League. Think about how many 40 point games you saw cats drop in college last year. I guess had he did it against NC State you'd hold it in higher regard. In '13 for UNC he played the 4 coming down the stretch and was a 20 plus guaranteed scorer when Roy went small. Just admit you thought he was a "D-League" player and automatically attached the stigma to him without realizing what you were talking about. Charlotte don't need two undersized guards.
I knew who he was the whole time considering the fact that here was an overwhelming request for him at 24 by the majority of hornets fans ive seen on twitter and other sites therefore I did my research long before the draft:what:. Who cares about being "undersized"? U act like being undersized has stopped guys like Kemba and Ty Lawson from playing at a high level.. PJ is a hometown guy and thats the only reason Hornets fans wanted him so much, i'd rather have undersized Shabazz than Luke Ridnours corpse or Gary Neal jacking up shots every time he touches the ball

Him and Adrian Payne are older but there skills are more refined and they'll be able to contribute immediately.....they both are a work in progress defensively, early has good lateral quickness/ and Payne has good size and strength...so the potential is there....


which pick 29th? i'm not a fan of cleanthony he's a beyond pathetic defender and old(wll be 24) they wanted a 3 and D player I think its a solid pick probably could have gotten him later though.

I prefered KJ mcdaniels but Huestis is a better perimeter defender that can glue to guys. he shut down wiggins completely when they went up against eachother. I think he has potential to be thabo with a better jumper.

all in all i think we had a solid draft, it never looks good (steven adams reggie etc) these guys will be solid role players. mcgary for sure

Huestis is a better hustler/intangibles guy but he ain't on McDaniels level as far as perimeter D..plus it was the zone that shut down Wiggins and Kansas..imo people are sleeping on McDaniels potential he reminds me a lot of Shawn Marion....
