The 2020 real-time NBA Draft Thread

Trying LockedOnLive on twitch ATM and have both ESPN and NBATV visually in the background.

Idk, saying Mitch saying Melo is gonna come in and get some minutes, considering how Lavar and Mrs.Ball was looking, Idk if we’re getting off on the right foot lol

Lamelo seemed pretty excited in his interview a few minutes ago

And anyone else find it interesting that the Balls suddenly started having technical issues and couldn’t do an interview with ESPN once we drafted him? I’m a bit concerned.

Lamelo just did an interview with Hornets press

Is it on our website? ESPN said they were gonna do one but there was technical issues and never did.

Here is is a few minutes ago talking about how he was excited to be able to throw lobs to PJ and Miles

Cool. I’ll have to check it out then.

He’s on FoxSportsSE twitter account I believe. Just go to Hornets twitter and it should be there.

I’ve been thinking Xavier Tillman for a while, but
Udoka Azubuike has better size and analytics like him.

Thanks yall. Also, how do I quote with this new board format?

I think if you are planning on keeping ball, mj takes his dad out golfing. Midway through hole #1 basically says that he has no problem keeping him for 5 years whether “his family” wants him there or not. And if “his family” becomes an issue, detroit, cleveland or sacramento could be home too. Or he can just dither away in charlotte

I doubt his dad will be an issue, he’s been pretty quiet the past few years. Plus he’ll have his time split between all three kids

That assumes he loves his kids. I think that is not a valid assumption

Oh dear Lord we’re in even more trouble playing MIA next year with Achiwa and Bam as a 1,2 defensive punch.

And Maxey is still in the green room… geez Bol Bol says he’s got a beer for him

Two bigs who can guard just about every position. If Achiwa can develop his shot … wow!

Now, what i really want to know though… was Russillo’s report about MJ adamantly not wanting Ball was true? I don’t think I’ve ever heard Russillo report something that wasn’t true… so I wonder what happened there? Maybe we tried to trade and couldn’t?

As yall know, I wanted Ball. I’m just curious if everybody was all in on it, or someone took some convincing?
