    with the #43 pick in the 2nd round.

    They also mentioned that this is the 5th straight year that LSU has had a player drafted into the NBA. I hope some young recruits are watching.

    Are you kidding me? That is like a dream come true!!!! I think he'll be great for the Hornets!!!! Also, I think that is great he got drafted in the 2nd Round in the first place, most people I saw on LSU forums were claiming that he wouldn't get drafted and would be an undrafted free agent.

    Whaaaaaaaaaat?!!! I didn't even know this. Oh, he should be perfect for the Hornets. They need a pure shooter and one that can drive if they're taking his shot away. Also, Thornton can shoot with a man in his face and has one of the quickest releases I've ever seen. I'm excited to see him and Paul together. That could be trouble for some teams to handle in the future.
