Number 2 pick

[PantherPaul]

This close to getting the #1 pick. Who is the second best player?

scoot

scoot

Or the Alabama SF assuming he doesn't get jailed.

After the Bridges black eye, I'm not sure the team wants to walk out on that plank.
Then again I've been wrong more in my history than I've been right.

seems like most of the hornets' picks are number 2.

Trade Melo and take Scoot

Trade Rozier, Bouknight, Maledon, Oubre, Simmons, but Ball ain't going nowhere.
Yes, those are all guards.
Get Scoot, and keep Ball, Hayward(who can play guard), Dennis Smith, Svi Mykhailiuk, McGowens.
Let Scoot be the point and Ball can be the quasi shooting guard.

 

[PantherPaul]

I doubt it happens but trading down to New Orleans and get a couple of players/ picks

The Hornets have, I think, 5 picks in the draft and were darn lucky to move to the #2 spot.
They would be idiots to trade out of it for more draft picks.
Go get Scoot and feel extremely lucky.
