Another two second rounders huh? I think that Steven Hunter has the potential to be something half decent in this league. Athletic 7 footers are pretty hard to find nowadays.

Thats a reasonable acquisition. Since Birdman is out for two years, Hunter is here to take his place.

Who do you think next will go from Hornets ? JR Smith ?

Probably. He has all the tools to be a superstar, but his work ethic is reportedly bad which is not something you would like to se in your core player. I say trade him now, when he has still trade value left. He'll probably end up being a Morris Peterson type of player (better offense and more athleticism, worse defense).

Hunter and Williams in (to replace Andersen), could one of the younger bigs be on their way out together with J.R Smith for another young player? Or more veteran help? Or are the Hornets just total shit att building a team?
