• The New Orleans Hornets had no regrets about trading their first-round pick for Jerryd Bayless. They moved him for guard Jarrett Jack(notes), who helped them make the playoffs this season. The Hornets have a second-round pick (No. 45), and have had talks on deals which would get them back into the first round.

When You Look At It

From the stance that the Hornets essentially spent the 19th pick in this year’s draft on what we’ll get from Jarrett Jack next season, there’s not much reason to complain. I thought they did a fantastic job getting two first rounders last season and getting rid of Peterson’s contract at the same time but I don’t imagine there’ll be any moves like that this season. Considering this draft really sucks, I don’t mind the Hornets moving the 19th pick for Jack.

Probably

but I remember just two years ago, the 2009 draft was supposed to be weak. Basically learned I’ll never shoot down another draft till at least a few years after the fact.

2009 Was Kind Of Weak

I’d say outside of Blake Griffin there’s not another great player out of that whole bunch.

Well

I really like Steph Curry too. So yeah I’d say both of them and then a couple good players and a bunch of ehhhh players.

Superstars sure

but how about that PG class?

Curry, Holiday, Jennings, Collison, Evans, Lawson, Douglas and we don’t even know how Rubio will ultimately turn out.

I Forgot About Holiday

Who I really like. Collison…. we love him but he’s just OK to good. Jennings and Evans both really regressed this season. Lawson’s pretty good too and Douglas is about in Collison’s category. Again, solid players but nothing that’s really going to blow many people away.
